One of the latest new machines here at WES is the Mori Seiki NL2500SY/700. This is a major purchase for WES and demonstrates our continued commitment to improving our capabilities and capacity.

Sub spindle machine with driven tooling and bar feed
12 station turret
C Axis
Y Axis 100mm ( + 50mm / - 50mm) side to side
10" Main chuck
6" Sub-spindle chuck

705mm max turning length
80mm max bar feed
91mm max through spindle
20 HP main spindle power

This is just the start of an extensive investment plan including further development of our facilities – additional office space, an extended inspection area, and two other new machines within the next 12 months.
