Breaking Technological Barriers

In the fast-paced world of manufacturing, standing still is not an option. At Katmex, we don’t just adapt to change, we drive it and champion it. This summer, we made a bold investment in our future, bringing two cutting-edge HURCO vertical machining centres to our Stockton facility. After the success of these machines at our Seaham site, it was clear they were a game-changer. This half a million pound investment reinforces our commitment to innovation and precision engineering.

The results speak for themselves. Our engineering team has already used one of the new machines to create a sophisticated fabrication jig for a prominent digger manufacturer. These HURCO machines offer advanced capabilities, including magnetic beds that allow full-perimeter machining and facing without traditional clamps, which transforms how we approach production.

Innovation with Impact

What sets the HURCO machines apart isn’t just their technology but the impact they are already having on our operations. Here’s how they are making a difference:

  • Enhanced Production Flexibility: By removing the need for clamps, we’ve unlocked new possibilities in how we approach even the most complex manufacturing challenges.
  • Faster Machining Times: The streamlined processes mean we can deliver results quicker, without sacrificing precision.
  • Unwavering Quality: As always, every innovation supports our commitment to delivering the exceptional quality our customers rely on.

While advanced technology is a vital tool, it’s our team’s expertise and collaboration that bring it to life. At Katmex, we foster a culture where cross-functional teamwork transforms even the most ambitious projects into practical, real-world solutions. These new HURCO machines join an impressive lineup of equipment from leading manufacturers like Haas and Mazak, further strengthening our capabilities.

Investing in the Future

For us, this investment isn’t just about adding machinery—it’s about pushing boundaries and setting new benchmarks. The success of the HURCO machines at Seaham proved their value, and now they’re shaping the future of our Stockton facility. It’s a clear reflection of our focus on continuous improvement, efficiency, and delivering exceptional value to our customers.

 

This is just the beginning. At Katmex, innovation drives everything we do, and we’re excited to see how these machines will continue to elevate our engineering excellence.
