Dynamatic-Oldland Aerospace is installing a DMG MORI DMC 340 U RS4 Giga Milling Centre in a new purpose built unit at its Swindon facility, the first machine of this type in the private sector in the UK. With a capacity of 3,400 mm in X, 3,400 mm in Y and 2,000 mm in Z this machine has four pallets, is capable of handling workpieces of 16 tons, has a rapid traverse rate of 60m/min and a tool magazine holding 180 tools each of which can weigh up to 30 kg. James Tucker, Managing Director of Dynamatic Limited UK says, “The versatility of this machine in the manufacture of complex parts in aluminium alloy, steel and titanium alloy fits well into our existing machine pool. The machine, expected to be delivered this June, will help us to serve our existing and new customers and deliver larger and much more challenging parts.”
