Name for a series of CNC-machining centres, which are specifically equipped for the Nesting technology.

In 2007, the series Vantage was introduced as a new development, using the newly developed material S/C-Tech, by the Homag daughter Weeke. It were gantry machines, especially designed to fulfill the requirements of nesting.

HOMAG also introduced the brand name 'Vantage' for machines with equipment suitable for nesting in 2007. However, these were no new developments but special, pre-configured and thus, inexpensive and qualitatively high equipped model versions of the series B 200/ B 300, similar to the series Venture. The machines of the Homag Vantage series, in contrast to the machines of the Weeke series, are rather universally designed. This is also reflected in the advertising slogan "Nesting and More ". A small number of equipment options was available, such as an air cushion feature for easy loading and unloading.
