Reynaers and AluK fabricator Exeter Trade Aluminium has invested in the FMC470, four axis CNC machining centre by Fom Industrie, said to be the first to be imported into the UK from Fom’s Catalica factory in Italy.
The large scale 4-axis CNC is designed to maximise volume and optimise efficiency. The FMC470 is a very advanced aluminium CNC with the potential to complete very complicated tasks at volume, requiring minimum manual input.
Training took place at the Fom plant in Italy, where Production Manger Luke Leaman flew out for a week’s training on the FMC470. Luke said: “The machine makes use of the newest CNC technology and will help us maintain our reputation for quality, whilst increasing the efficiency of our operations as we continue to grow.”
Established in 2015, Exeter Trade Aluminium fabricates a range of Reynaers and AluK aluminium glazing products including lift & slide doors, bi-folding doors and slim line windows.
