Coventry-based Emmegi (UK) (www.www.emmegi.com) has supplied a Twin Ferro double-mitre saw and a Phantomatic T3 Star machining centre to Robust UK in Stoke on Trent, so it can produce a new range of steel profile glazed doors designed by Stalprofil in Sweden.

Robust already manufactures a wide range of internal, external and security doors in hollow steel its existing equipment, but the Stalprofil steel sections require the kind of specialist cutting and machining processes that the Emmegi machines can provide.

Emmegi’s Twin Ferro double-mitre saw features a horizontal blade feed and electronic cutting heads that can be programmed to move automatically on recirculating ball guides.

Both cutting heads can be set at 45deg, 90deg and +135deg on the X axis, in addition to all the angular settings on the vertical Y axis. The saw can be used on particularly short workpieces if required.

The accompanying Phantomatic T3 Star is a four-axis machining centre that can work with steel up to 3mm thick; it can be supplied with a tool magazine for four or eight tools.

Users can work at any angle from -90 to +90deg, giving them maximum flexibility.

Ian Latimer, managing director of Emmegi (UK), said: “People know us best for aluminium machines, but the Emmegi product range includes steel and PVC machinery as well.

“We are a global group, and all of the products have been very well proven world-wide.”
