One-stop EDM toolmaker buys CNC milling
An EDM toolmaker-come-general subcontractor wanting to expand into prismatic metalcutting has bought a Hurco machining centre to offer a one-stop service
The first Roeders machine was introduced in 1990 to help improve the productivity of its own bottle mould division.
Since then, the company has specialised in the manufacture of high precision machines specifically for 3D applications.
The product range now comprises nine models including a 5-axis CNC machine and another with an integrated pallet system.
Although the established customer base is centred on graphite EDM electrode production and hard metal machining for the mould and die industry, there are now a number of customers in the aerospace and medical engineering sectors as well.
With this new agency, Hurco believes it has a solution for everyone with 3D applications, as true high-speed finishing and heavy cutting of tool steels are now covered by the range.
The company is keen to make cutting trials on R?ders machines as it believes them to be the best of their type on the market. Request free introductory details about products from Hurco Europe ...
