Last week we installed and commissioned a new high spec EDM hole drilling Machine – a River 300 CNC
This machine has a extended Z and a high performance generator improving performance when drilling particularly challenging materials.
The machine it replaced a Mitsubishi had served us well for twelve years, but replacing it means that we now have two newer machines, both with the greater performance and positional accuracy that our customers expect.
As a result of this latest piece of kit arriving, our plant list has again needed to be updated
