1 min read

Delcam Professional Services has increased the range of 5-axis machining equipment within its Advanced Manufacturing Facility, following the addition of a Mori Seiki NMV 5000 machine.

The move follows increased demand for the company's process development and prototype manufacturing services. The Mori Seiki machine installed at the company's Birmingham HQ extends the ability of Delcam Professional Services to undertake high speed, high precision 5-axis machining of complex parts and will be used in initially for process development projects for mid-sized aerospace parts. The primary focus of Delcam Professional Services is to work with clients, mainly in the aerospace and power generation industries, to improve their manufacturing processes by increasing productivity, improving accuracy and shortening lead times. For the majority of projects, these improvements are achieved through the use of adaptive machining - Delcam's claimed unique combination of machining and inspection technology. Delcam Professional Services also supports manufacturing companies whose own engineering resource is stretched. The services provided can vary from supplying extra design and programming resources when existing staff are overloaded, through to developing dedicated software to automate existing manufacturing methods, or to establishing completely new turn-key processes for the manufacture of novel designs.
