Like Piccadilly Circus — but busier!

MACH 2016 Bristol-based Mach Machine Tools (www.machmt.co.uk), which was started by directors Matt Andrew and Marc Bowers in 2013, says hundreds of visitors went to its stand at MACH 2016 to see the ranges of manual milling, drilling, turning, grinding and sawing machines being exhibited, including the recently introduced MACH L-1340 manual lathe and the MACH SG 818 surface grinder.

Mr Andrew said: “It was a great show that generated a large number of high-quality leads and enquiries, as well as numerous orders placed over the five days. Our MACH VS-1 turret-type milling machine was again a firm favourite, with seven orders taken during the week.

“It is always great when you are able to take orders for machines at an exhibition, especially when they are for recently launched models — such as the three MACH L-1340 lathes and two MACH SG 818 surface grinders. It is looking like 2016 will be our busiest year ever.”
