Investment in new high precision CNC

Focus SB has taken delivery of a new state of the art high precision CNC machine as part of our ongoing investment programme.

This £130k+ investment adds to our already three strong CNC machining centre capabilities. The addition of this latest CNC gives us a faster and more efficient machining centre with its added ‘cobot’ loading and unloading facility making it fully automatic.

Designed and custom built for us by Pinnacle CNC Machine Tools, our impressive LV8 vertical machining centre with automation will machine blanks into apertured plates for all of our inserts for standard and special configurations.

The Pinnacle LV8 is a linear guideways machine that provides rapid tool change and high accuracy for demanding machining applications. The machine has been supplied as part of a turn key solution which includes a collaborative robot to enhance manufacturing efficiency. Much quicker than our existing CNC machines our new CNC will work out of hours, therefore increasing our productivity.

In addition to this, we will be launching some exciting new products over the next 12 months and this machine will be pivotal in the efficient manufacture of some of the more complex products we will be introducing.

Our Managing Director, Gary Stevens comments: “The investment into this new CNC not only signifies our intention as a business to continue to reinvest profits for longer-term gain. It also continues our learning and development as a business in robotics and automation, which represents the future for British manufacturing to be competitive and innovative on the global stage. Finally, our continued commitment in designing and developing new products in line with our mission to be the number one brand for luxury designer electrical accessories has to be underpinned by an equal investment into the technology and machinery to manufacture them efficiently. We will be launching some exciting new designs over the next twelve months that will change the face of electrical accessory designs”.
