New arrival on show at open house
17 January 2017
Open house events are planned to highlight the benefits of the XYZ UMC-5X, the first gantry-type fully-simultaneous five-axis machining centre from XYZ Machine Tools.

The events will provide an opportunity to see the XYZ UMC-5X demonstrated, as well as the opportunity to sit in on a brief presentation of the benefits of five-axis machining and what it can deliver in terms of productivity gains across a wide range of industries.
The first two of these events, take place at XYZ’s Devon headquarters and Nuneaton showroom on the 28th and 30th March respectively. They have been designated VIP days and are invitation only. Invitations will be extended to those businesses that have indicated a serious interest in taking delivery of one of the first XYZ UMC-5X machines to arrive in the UK. Visitors can attend either the morning or afternoon presentations starting at 10:30 and 13:30 respectively on each day.
Two additional open houses will be held the following week on the 4th and 6th April, again at XYZ’s Devon headquarters and Nuneaton showroom respectively. These days are open to all, but to assist with planning visitors are asked to register their preference of location and time by contacting XYZ.
