KDT Rejuvenation at Assemble Kitchens
Last year Sam set out to rejuvenate the Assemble workshop and first on the list for an upgrade was the CNC. “We’d had many years of good service from our Anderson,” he says, “but it was getting tired.” Sam wanted more production capacity for the future, and preferred the efficiency of a full CNC cell, including infeed with labelling, and outfeed. He settled on a KN-3612DE from KDT, supplied and installed by Jacks.
When questioned about the difference in productivity compared with the older CNC, Sam doesn’t hesitate: It’s night and day!” he says. “The KDT is so much faster, and Easy to work with - the graphical interface is clear and simple." Sam is positive about the decision to go with a larger size too. “We’re always looking for more efficiency, more growth,” Sam says. “That’s why we went for the 3.6m bed – so we can use the larger sheets when we want to. And it’s much quieter than our old machine – less noise means our working environment has improved.”
