Internal Investment Fortifies Future Potential
Olmec UK Ltd have taken delivery of a new CNC machine from Matsuura; a significant investment to ensure that Olmec is maximising capacity for growth, improving part quality and enhancing productivity.
The Matsuura MX-520 4 pallet 5 axis vertical machining centre, complete with PC4 pallet changer and Hypermill software will increase the current machining capacity and allow for better control of workflow through MRP integration.
Managing Director Robert Pounder said “Systems supplied by Olmec are designed and manufactured in-house, typically including bespoke components, in combination with carefully selected controls and machine vision equipment as well as Olmec’s proprietary software Alchemy. This investment will not only increase our machining capacity and capabilities but will give us greater control of quality and lead times allowing us to be more responsive to our customers. It is vital that Olmec is able to offer our global customers UK made inspection and process manufacturing equipment within the Healthcare, Pharmaceutical and Automotive industries. This investment is symbolic of our commitment to continuous innovation and development, employing latest technologies and providing a tangible platform for growth .
