Leicester-based Camloc Motion Control (www.camloc.om) has invested £175,000 in a second DMG Mori Sprint 32/8 CNC lathe to meet customer demand (www.uk.dmgmori.com).

The new machine increases the company’s capacity to produce more-complex bespoke gas springs and dampers to meet the exacting requirements of customers.

Matt Warne, technical director, said: “Following the proven success of our first CNC lathe, we decided to invest in a second machine, which has enabled us to bring forward new product development and improve our flexibility to tailor customer-specific solutions.

“Reducing specialist component lead times means that we are better able to meet customer needs.”
