TK New Building Tour
By mid October 2008 - after a lot of hard work - 95% of our
machinery was operational in our new building. The following
images provide a simple visual tour of the new factory:
The CMM measuring machine installed in the temperature
controlled Erosion area
Our main Agie wire machine
Our reserve Wire Machine - to be use for Grid frame manufacture
Our rack of three Agie sink erosion machines (we have a lot of Agie
equipment)
And a set of Charmilles manual sink erosion machines
And - also set in a temperature controlled area - our three Moore CNC
Jig Grinders.
Here - in Trevor Walker's working office - you see our 500 Kg grid
winding machine
Now moving downstairs
a view of our 30,000 rpm Bostomatic High Speed mill, with a Sip Jig Borer
in the foreground
And our other high speed milling machine - better at removing large volumes of material - a
DMG with 15,000 RPM spindle speed.
A view of the set of Super Precision Hardinge manual lathes - much used for feed horn production
And our large Jakobson surface grinder
Finallly - and less interestingly - back on the top floor, the main and
Richard Wylde's offices (we use paper as well as metal)
