Blackburns
Metals Ltd, a stockholder of aluminium and stainless steel,
is a major supplier of sheet metals with 10 distribution centres across the UK.
Guy Hammond, National Product Manager for Blackburns:
"We were looking to expand our product offering to include profile-cut sheet metal and folded ACM
trays. To achieve this goal we needed
a cnc router that would cut not only aluminium but also stainless steel and its
new line of aluminium composite materials (ACM). We'd heard that many of the businesses successfully supplying
the trade were using Tekcel cnc routers."
“We researched the market to see what cnc routers worked well and felt Tekcel
E Series was a better machine all round. We were given demonstrations on all the
materials we cut and were impressed with the router’s performance and the presentation.
We liked the ballscrew drive system on the Tekcel router and the accuracy and reliability
it provides. Both Karl Weston, Managing Director, and I felt confident about choosing
Tekcel.”
“Health and safety of machine and operator
was also uppermost in our minds when we looked at buying a router. The
Tekcel E Series was more robust than others we saw and we liked the fact that it
bolts to ground. We have a lot of forklift trucks driving around and, while the
machine and operators are always protected, this gives added safety in case of an
incident.”
Blackburns Metals now provides a highly successful
cnc service to trade customers throughout the UK with its Tekcel cnc router. |
