Investment in state-of-the-art CNC Lathe expands manufacturing capacity
Leicester-based gas spring and damper solutions manufacturer Camloc Motion Control has continued the growth of its manufacturing and product development arm following significant investment in a second CNC Lathe.
The new DMG MORI Sprint 32|8 machine worth £175,000, similar to one acquired by Camloc in 2017, further increases the company’s capacity to manufacture and develop more complex, bespoke products for its customers.
Matt Warne, Engineering Director at Camloc Motion Control, sees the investment in a second CNC Lathe as a significant step forward for the business as part of its long-term growth plans.
“Following the success we have seen over the last eighteen months as a result of our investment in the first CNC Lathe, we made the decision to bring forward our acquisition of the second from DMG MORI”.
DMG MORI is a recognised industry leader in the manufacture of high-end metal cutting and milling machines - feeding into a range of manufacturers and industries across the globe.
Investment in a second lathe allows Camloc to bring forward new product development, reduce specialist component lead-times and further improve flexibility in providing bespoke customer product solutions.
“Our aim is to continue to be at the forefront of the gas spring and damper industry - both in terms of quality and innovation. Investing in the latest technology and machinery allows us to take our products to the next level - delivering tailored functionality that meets specific customer needs.” added Matt.
