Leader CNC of Nuneaton is the UK distributor for Korean manufacturer DMC, whose range of CNC lathes complements the Toshiba and Kitamura machining centres already distributed by the company.
DMC, originally established in Daegu in 1944, forms part of the Ilrim Nanotech Group, whose core business is the manufacture of CE marked hydraulic units, oil coolers, auto loaders and chip conveyors used by many Japanese and Korean machine tool makers.
DMC CNC lathes were first developed in 1977, followed by vertical machining centres; now the Group has a close co-operation with awell known large Korean machine tools suppliers, for whom it builds vertical CNC machining centres and CNC lathes, as well as manufacturing its own laser cutting machines.
“This new agency is an ideal opportunity for Leader CNC to open new doors in the marketplace," says Leader CNC sales director Mike Serzeniewski. "Customers considering machining centres for prismatic work often enquire about turning centres. Now we can satisfy that requirement with a range of CNC lathes up to a 10 inch chuck capacity – turn only or with driven tools.
“Our customers will benefit as the low prices are a direct result of Leader being able to offer machines directly from the builder and not through several cost centres – everybody wins.”
