Made in the Midlands members are making their final preparations ahead of this years annual exhibition.
The big day is less than a week away so ahead of the exhibitions opening on June 21, we profile more members and what they have planned for visitors to the Ricoh Arena.
Tube laser processor Kloeckner Metals UK will be eager to talk about the expansion of its capacity following the addition of its new Adige LT14 Jumbo laser.
Completing the groups already extensive laser cutting portfolio, the new equipment is the latest generation of these type of machines and includes many cutting-edge features.
Having the machine available means Kloeckner Metals UK is one of the few businesses in the country capable of processing parts up to 355mm in diameter and weight up to 100kg/m. In addition to processing Hollow section tubes, it can also process large beams, columns, split tees, angles and channels.
