Thirteen machining systems to be shown
Thirteen, high-technology, high-productivity machining systems will be shown by Chiron-Werke - including five-axis versions - and integrated and automated manufacturing cells.
Turning centre has Y-axis on three turrets
Among eight super high-precision turning centres is a machine with Y-axis on three turrets, while pallet handling and bar-feeders will also be shown including a serv0-driven type.
The Engineering Technology Group was set up in April, 2005, and brings together four complementary businesses: Chiron the world class manufacturer of high speed machining centres; Turning Technologies - the sole UK distributor for Nakamura-Tome's super high precision turning centres: Hyfore - a manufacturer of manual, pneumatic and hydraulic fixtures and Hyformation - a new business focusing on Kupa flexible manufacturing systems.
Gravener will be working across all of the Group's business areas and brings a wealth of experience to his new role.
After serving his time as an engineering apprentice, Cliff worked in manufacturing before making the move to machine tool sales in 1989.
In the past sixteen years he has been involved in all aspects of machining centre and turning centre sales.
Gravener says he was keen to work for the Engineering Technology Group because of its philosophy of giving customers access to the world's most productive machine tools and providing all the supporting elements they need to take full advantage of them.
"This is an exciting time to join an exciting company," says Gravener.
"The whole philosophy of the Group is a refreshing change".
"The Group's approach offers the deep market knowledge and attention to detail of a small company supported by the resources of a larger organisation".
"This is not just about selling products; we are offering customers a complete engineering solution which makes it a much more satisfying job." Group Chairman Paul Rhodes said, "We are delighted to welcome Cliff to the Engineering Technology Group".
"His knowledge of the industry and his enthusiasm for what we are trying to achieve make him a great asset for the group.".
