MACH 2016 During the recent MACH 2016 show at the NEC, the Basque CNC lathe company CMZ Machine Tool Manufacturer SL appointed Lutterworth-based Radius Machine Tool Solutions Ltd (www.rmts.uk) as its new sales agent for the “central region” of the UK.

Radius’s sales director Mark Randall said: “It’s a fantastic opportunity to be involved with such a prestigious company as CMZ; and being located close to the CMZ UK facility will enhance our ability to promote the company’s range of high-precision CNC slant-bed lathes.

“All CMZ machines are fitted with the latest Fanuc 32i controls, drives and motors, and the range covers from two-axis lathes through to advanced machines with a C axis, driven tooling and a Y axis; there are also gantry versions and multi-turret options.”

A family-owned business close to Bilbao, CMZ focuses solely on the European market and has four ‘state of the art’ facilities designed to allow high-volume production with a high level of attention to detail.
