On Stand J275, MACH Machine Tools will be showcasing a range of CNC and manual machines – many of which have, in recent years, become technology ‘staples’ for toolmakers and component manufacturers in the UK and Ireland.
Specific CNC machines being exhibited include the high productivity DynaPath-controlled MDS 845-8T and MDS 900-4T toolroom mills, both equipped with integrated tool change capabilities, as well as a flexible, large-capacity MDL 1800 flatbed lathe with an integrated auto tool post.
MACH’s manual machine range is represented by a best-selling VS-1SP (Super Precision) turret-type milling machines and a, recently-introduced and competitively-priced, 1440 UV Trainer lathe.
A unique feature on the stand is a dedicated CNC simulator station where visitors can familiarise and ‘test-out’ the advanced DynaPath control system for themselves.
On Stand H310, Machine Tool Sales Online (MTSO) will showcase a range of used machine tool models from its extensive stock of pre-owned machines.
To demonstrate what sets MTSO apart in the crowded used machine tool market, the company will highlight the care and attention it takes to prepare its pre-owned machines, prior to delivery and installation at customers’ facilities, to ensure they deliver the performance and precision demanded of them.
This will be achieved through a number of ‘live’ tests performed by MTSO engineers and include Renishaw Ball Bar testing and a number of positional and repeatability accuracy tests that every MTSO machine is subjected to, and has to pass, prior to delivery.
David Andrew, managing director, The Vigilance Group, said: "Southern Manufacturing 2023 provides the ideal platform for us to showcase our latest MACH CNC and manual machine tools, and a selection of high-quality MTSO used machines to visitors.
“We have two stands at the event: one for MACH Machine Tools and the other for Machine Tool Sales Online (MTSO).
“Our message to visitors attending, or thinking of attending, the show is a simple one.
“If you’re looking for a best-in-class new or used CNC or manual machine tool solution – check out both our stands.
“You won’t be disappointed.”
