The MACRO-SI offers an index table similar to the “Macro-I" and facilitates loading and unloading of components parallel to the grinding process. The rigid design of the machine base and frame allows the mounting of most auxiliary systems directly to the machine which facilitates moving the machine as a single unit, an important feature in today's ever changing production environment.

The MACRO series is characterized mainly by the following useful features
- torque tube design
- polymer concrete-filled machine bed
- tool slides of the machine are made from cast iron
- high stock removal rates achievable
- efficient vibration damping
- high thermal stability
- water-cooled spindles and spindle drives
- different rotary speeds and power levels available
- stable temperature during grinding
- consistently high part quality
