Standel Dawman is looking to the future with the launch of the Greenhill range of electric golf trolleys. To produce a competitive top quality product the company has invested over £750,000 in CNC machine tools for component manufacture and the machining of mould and dies for plastic mouldings.

The latest machine tools installed include two Mazak VERTICAL CENTRE NEXUS 410A-II vertical machining centres. These machines feature a 900 by 410 mm table that is large enough to accept the mould tools Standel Dawman needs to machine.

The majority of the components are programmed at the machine using the Mazatrol conversational programming language contained in the Matrix Nexus control system. For the more complex mould tools, offline programming is used.

These two VERTICAL CENTRE NEXUS 410A-II machines are among a total of six Mazaks that are helping Standel Dawman to maintain the quality expected of products for the golfing industry.
