At the
Manufacturing & Engineering North East (MENE) exhibition taking place on 28 November at the Vertu Motors Arena in Newcastle,
Starrag will showcase a host of new technologies — many of which have not yet been seen in the UK (Stand 55).
The company will have everything from new machine technologies to virtual showroom demonstrations on the stand. From the Bumotec product range, Starrag will present its latest turn/mill product lines, which can now be viewed in the company’s new virtual showroom
here. Also new to the Starrag stable is the new Heckert H Compact Series of twin-pallet horizontal machining centres with a trunnion table that provides an impressive high-speed/rigid simultaneous five-axis capability, making it perfect for any machine shop.
Scotland and Northern England are regions particularly renowned for their expertise in heavy-duty machining and large-scale manufacturing projects. That is why Starrag will be keen to present the new Dörries VT 28 vertical turning centre at
MENE. Developed for one-hit machining of large components in the aerospace, power generation, and offshore sectors — the Dörries VT 28 is the epitome of performance, accuracy, and long-term stability.
Capable of efficiently machining heavy components up to 17 tonnes with a maximum diameter of 2.8m and a height of 2.65m, the Dörries VT 28 has been developed as a multi-functional, high-precision, and flexible vertical turning centre for everything from rough to finish machining in a single operation. To achieve this, the compact single-column vertical turning lathe is suitable for turning, drilling, boring, milling, grinding, and much more.
