Testimonials

"We have been a customer of Lead Precision Machine Tools for several years having bought Leadwell machining centres in the late 1990’s. The machines have been used extensively over a number of contracts and have given good service. When necessary the company has given excellent technical support and service which is why we have continued to invest in Leadwell".

High Level of Investment increases profitability


Horizontal Boring Services Ltd, has invested heavily over recent years and with Lead Precision Machine Tools Ltd’s help and support it is achieving its business objectives and increasing profits faster than predicted.


A turning point for Horizontal Boring when a decision was made to invest in new Leadwell MH 500 twin pallet horizontal machining centre, taking part of a £350,000 investment. With a machining capacity of 750 X 650 x 700 the MH 500 is capable of machining large gate valves and reducing set up and machining times given the twin pallet configuration and full integral ‘B’ axis, productivity on a range of valves was improved by 45%.


Production Director, Barry Beesley chose the Leadwell MH 500 on the basis that it offered fantastic value for money and after seeing the machines cutting capabilities at established sites in the Midlands he had no hesitation in recommending the purchase to the board and his decision has been verified by the increase in productivity. The machine has performed extremely well since installation and confidence in Lead Precision Machine Tools Ltd has enhanced a very good working relationship, so much so that the balance of this investment was used to purchase a Leadwell MV 40 vertical machining centre.


Horizontal Boring has a solid reputation for first-class service and with Lead Precision Machine Tools help and support they are optimistic about the future.
