Comments:
1995 Monarch Ultra-Center with 1 spindle, 1 turret and 1 turret changer. The probe option was not selected on this unit. The spindle brake option was not selected. The tailstock option was not selected. The vacuum/mist system that would have been located on the right of the machine has long been removed - what happened and where it went are unknown. The chip conveyor is still operational. Most of the "open door" safety items have been defeated.

The unit was purchased new in 1995. As of 6/28/2026, this unit is still operating daily for 2-7 hours per day. The turret changer does operate but is currently disconnected due to a fluid leak.

The Ultra-Center models were available with up to 3 spindles, 3 turrets and 3 turret changers.
