Starrag to present full line solutions at MENE
21 February 2025
AT THE Manufacturing and Engineering North East (MENE) exhibition at the Vertu Motors Arena in Newcastle, Starrag will present a host of new technologies - many of which have not yet been seen in the UK.

On 28 November, on Stand 55 at MENE, the Starrag stand will have new innovations, including the exciting new Dörries VT 28 vertical turning centre.
At the MENE Show, Starrag will have everything from new machine technologies to virtual showroom demonstrations on the stand. From the Bumotec product range, Starrag will present its latest turn/mill product lines, which can now be viewed in the company’s new virtual showroom (showroomvud.starrag.com). Also new to the Starrag stable is the new Heckert H Compact Series of twin pallet horizontal machining centres. The new Compact Heckert X series has a trunnion table that provides an impressive high-speed/rigid simultaneous 5-axis capability, making it perfect for any machine shop.
Scotland and northern England are regions particularly well respected for their expertise in heavy-duty machining and large-scale manufacturing projects. That is why Starrag will be keen to present the new Dörries VT 28 vertical turning centre at MENE. Developed for one-hit machining of large components in the aerospace, power generation, and offshore sectors, the Dörries VT 28 is the epitome of performance, accuracy, and long-term stability.
Capable of efficiently machining heavy components up to 17 tonnes with a maximum diameter of 2.8m and a height of 2.65m, the Dörries VT 28 has been developed as a multifunctional, high-precision, and flexible vertical turning centre for everything from rough to finish machining in a single operation. To achieve this, the compact single-column vertical turning lathe is suitable for turning, drilling, boring, milling, grinding, and much more.
