Assembly Tables & Cutting Tools

What is the difference between the two different assembly tables?
The main difference between the two types of tables is the number of adjustable axes. The lower cost table (AMTE-300) only offers a powered tilt adjustment with a fixed height. The higher cost table (AMTE-400) offers the adjustable tilt, but in addition it also offers a variable height adjustment from 31 7/8 inches to 45 7/8 inches. The higher end model also is supplied with casters included and is shipped fully assembled

 

Does the Multi-profile and High Rise Aluminum DIN Rail cutter cut Allen-Bradley 1492-DR6 high rise  aluminum DIN rail? 
Yes, this cutter was designed specifically for Allen-Bradley 1492-DR6 DIN rail. The other profiles are standard steel DIN rail sizes. Other manufacturers’ high rise aluminum DIN rail can be tested if the
customer sends a small sample piece.

LTL

What is LTL?
LTL (less than truckload) is shipping by truck or common carrier on a pallet. For larger quantity or larger weight shipments, the freight cost can be much lower than shipping by Parcel service as long as the end receiver can accept a truck. Often times shipping by LTL results in less potential damage than by several packages by UPS because the contents are packaged on a skid and handled as a single unit. UPS handles each piece individually which increases the risk of damage.
