​The first customer to take advantage of XYZ Machine Tools’ offer of free loan machines to aid the fight against Covid-19 has taken delivery of its machine. The Midlands-based subcontractor needed additional turning capacity to assist with an order for respirator and oxygen regulator valves

The machine is a XYZ320LTY turning centre, with Y-axis and live tooling capability. The order was placed on 9 April and delivery was completed on the 15 April, with the machine being commissioned and training completed the following day so that production could begin immediately.

“For such vital work assisting the National Health Service, we are happy to make available any machine from stock, on a completely free of charge loan basis,” says Nigel Atherton, managing director, XYZ Machine Tools.

The offer of a completely free of charge loan machine is open to any business that is currently manufacturing components for any emergency medical equipment that will be used to assist the National Health Service at this critical time. Subject to availability and suitability, customers can choose any ex-stock machine from XYZ Machine Tools.
