Citizen Machinery UK has spread its wings to join forces with Headland Technology, based in Victoria.
The company serves the Australian and New Zealand markets. It already represents 20 global brands covering machine tools, storage systems and metrology equipment. With around 75 highly skilled technical personnel in sales, applications and service, it is the perfect fit for Citizen Machinery. The independent technology consultant and equipment supplier focuses in particular on Industry 4.0 networked production and factory automation solutions designed to improve the profitability of its high-profile customer base.
A Citizen Cincom L32-XIILFVR is being delivered to the dealer. The top-specification sliding-head lathe has nine CNC axes, including a Y2 axis on the back tool post and +90/−45 degree B-axis swivel on the front gang tool post to enable angled holes to be drilled at either spindle. The model will also have low-frequency vibration functionality for advanced chipbreaking of materials that normally generate stringy swarf.
