LIVE 3D PRINTING & LIVE 5 AXIS MACHINING AT SOUTHERN MANUFACTURING 2019

At the forthcoming Southern Manufacturing 2019 exhibition, Stand E260, Matsuura Machinery Ltd will be exhibiting their MX-850 5 axis CNC machine tool and HP Jet Fusion 540 3D printer, working in harmony to demonstrate the production strategies now available to UK manufacturers from Matsuura.

Exclusively for Southern Manufacturing, Matsuura will be machining live on the MX-850, the largest capacity CNC machine Matsuura have ever demonstrated at Southern Manufacturing, utilising fixtures and work-holding printed on the HP Multi-Jet Fusion 3D printer.

The MX-850 is the largest in the MX Series so far, offering users a large capacity, high quality and cost effective single table 5 axis CNC machining platform.

As the sole UK machine tool reseller of HP Multi-Jet Fusion 3D Printers in the UK, Matsuura’s strong applications experience will be demonstrated at the show, through a variety of sample parts printed on the HP Jet Fusion 540 3D printer, in addition to live printing on the machine.

At the event, Matsuura will also be presenting a seminar entitled “Applications in 3D Printing and Post Processing with HP Multi-Jet Fusion”, which aims to be a short and interactive session, with plenty of “real-world” examples on the capabilities of 3D printing and how traditional methods of manufacturing can work alongside 3D printing.

Roger Howkins, Managing Director at Matsuura Machinery Ltd commented: “Southern Manufacturing has always been a very well attended exhibition and with the organisers’ focus on 3D printing we’re certain it will be a strong show for us.  The two machines we have selected to bring to next year’s exhibition perfectly highlight our commitment to providing quality, innovative and tailored solutions to enhance our customers production facilities and deliver a proven return on investment.  Our team of application engineers are busy creating new and exclusive demo’s, work-holdings and fixtures which we’re excited to unveil in February.”
