Cannock-based Cube Commercial had been carrying out all its aluminium profile preparations using punch tooling and a copy router until it invested in an Emmegi Phantomatic T3A CNC machining centre, as director Paul Grenfell explained:
“Since the T3A was installed, we have certainly seen a significant improvement in our productivity and better precision, accuracy and overall quality in our frames. As you would expect, our fabrication team are very pleased with our investment – they can focus more on efficiency and quality control now and on delivering the repeatability and consistency that our commercial clients demand.”
He added: “We have been so impressed that we have also now purchased an Emmegi bead saw and crimper and various trolleys and ancillaries to add to the facilities here and continue our programme of ongoing investment. Moving forward, we plan to make Emmegi our machinery partner so that they can help us as we grow and ensure that our set-up suits our needs.”
The Phantomatic T3A three axes machining centre contains an angular machining head and a saw blade for machining on all five faces of the workpiece and comes with an eight-piece tool magazine. It also has an automatically positioned clamp unit and a high torque 5.5kW electro-spindle.
Ian Latimer, Emmegi (UK)’s Managing Director who advised Cube on its investment, said: “The Cube facility is already a great showcase for our products – absolutely immaculate and really well organised, and we’re very much looking forward to seeing how it develops in the future.”
