Ancillary equipment

10

The manufacturing performance and productivity of Doosan machines can be increased via the integration of ancillary equipment.
 
Whether it's a 4th or 5th axis unit for a Doosan machining centre, or a bar feeder for a Doosan lathe or turning centre, or even a robot-handling system for a manufacturing cell - Mills can deliver the optimum ancillary equipment solution - on time and on budget.
 
A majority of our ancillary equipment business is turnkey in nature
(occurring when we supply a new Doosan machine tool to customers), we also coordinate and manage a significant number of ancillary equipment retrofit projects every year too.
 
There are many reasons why customers select Mills to handle these retrofit requirements.

  • Mills' purchasing power and relationships with ancillary
    equipment manufacturers means that we have competitively-priced ancillary equipment in stock
  • Mills Service Engineers can install (or coordinate the installation) of equipment at a customer's facility - ensuring that the whole operation occurs efficiently and to plan.
  • Mills can Project Manage the complete installation...meaning that, for customers, there is only one point of contact.
  • When ancillary equipment is installed by Mills Service Engineers, the Doosan machine tool warranty is not affected.
