CNC Machining

Latest Technology Adds to CNC Capabilities

Arcona Engineering has recently installed a Deckel Maho DMU 50 5-axis universal CNC machining centre. The company is also complimenting its CNC turning range with the imminent purchase of a new Hurco TM6.

The DMU 50 incorporates digital drives, Heidenhain iTNC 530 3D contouring control, and speeds of up to 10,000rpm.

Arcona's comprehensive CNC milling and turning capabilities are all CAD/CAM driven with the latest Pathtrace software. This facilitates flexibility of machine capacity and faster turnaround of customer's orders with the ability to utilize customer's solid models.

The company supplies components and assemblies to a diverse range of industries some of which include cryogenics, medical, nuclear, orthopaedic, F1 motor sports, marine, electronic and food processing.

To provide fast processing of customers enquiries, quotations and control of workflow and delivery status, all of Acrona's systems are computerised using 'Visual Production' customised software.
