Industry veteran Jason Wilder has chosen machinery from EMMEGI (UK) for his new fabrication business, Spectral Windows.
Working from home, the company’s team sourced the Precision TS2 cutting centre from its Italian HQ and arrange delivery direct to Spectral’s East Midlands factory within a few days of the order being placed, making sure that the company was ready to open its doors as soon as lockdown was over.
Jason said: “The PVC-U saws we had bought and paid for way back in January got well and truly stuck with a different supplier during the lockdown, but Emmegi (UK) pulled out all the stops for us and got our saw to us within a week. That gave us a real head start in terms of getting our aluminium production up and running. And, as a result, when it came to ordering the machining centre to work alongside the new saw, there was no question that we would choose Emmegi (UK) again and we went for a Phantomatic M4 to complete our set up.”
The 3-axis Precision TS2 offers angled cutting to 45° inwards and 15° outwards, and a patented innovation by Emmegi achieves both virtual rotation of the cutting units on the saw and absolute rigidity so that positioning and profile blocking are always accurate.
The Phantomatic M4 is a 4-axis machining centre featuring a high torque electro spindle which continuously rotates from 0° to 180° to machine on three sides of a section up to 170mm x 210mm. It can work with bars up to 4m long, with a moving work plane which makes loading and unloading easier.
Spectral Windows has two Midlands factories – one producing PVC-U windows and doors in Deceuninck and the other producing aluminium windows and doors in Smarts profile.
