First Sliding Head – European CNC Turn Parts Love It

European CNC Turn Parts previously made a suite of parts on their Fixed Head machine.

Due to break downs they needed a new machine and quick.

The decision was made to invest in their first sliding head machine, and Citizen came to the party.

With quick delivery, the guys at European CNC Turn Parts were up and running in no time.

Not only that, because it was their first sliding head machine they needed a full training package; again, Citizen stepped up to the mark!

As a result they have seen;

–    5 min cycle time down to 2m 10s

–    Less waste as they now use 3m bar

–    Tooling costs massively reduced

–    Easy to change macro for their suite of parts – extremely smooth

–    Set up was previously 2 hours – it’s now about 5 minutes

–    No longer need to measure tools

So to fully endorse how pleased they are – their next investment will be a Citizen!
