3 reasons why Hope Technology (IPCO) Ltd bought from Whitehouse Machine Tools

3 reasons why Hope Technology (IPCO) Ltd invested in Brother Machine Tools Europe, supplied and supported by Whitehouse Machine Tools:

📌 🖇 Op 2 on three twin-piston brake calipers fixtured side-by-side now takes 19 minutes whereas it previously took 32 minutes, representing a 40% reduction. Time savings of this order are typical across the expanding range of parts being transferred across to the more agile machine.

📌 🖇 The footprint occupied by the Brother R650 is 20% smaller, which is helpful in a busy factory requiring more and more machine tools to service a business whose recent annual percentage turnover growth is well into double digits.

📌 🖇 Any 30-taper machining centre draws less power than a 40-taper machine with equivalent working envelope, there is an ongoing reduction in energy consumption that not only saves money but is also appropriate in a company that makes equipment for carbon-free transportation. The R650X1 additionally provides power regeneration from spindle deceleration, while the Brother CNC-C00 control minimises the power consumed by motors, pumps and lights by putting them into standby when not in use.
