Mills CNC, the exclusive distributor of DN Solutions’ and Zayer machine tools in the UK and Ireland, has just published its latest Summer 2025 edition of Insight – the company’s popular, biannually-produced customer magazine.
Available in digital format, this Summer edition is packed with the latest news from Mills CNC.
Since the last edition of Insight was published six months ago more hits (i.e., tariffs, tensions in the Middle East etc.), to the stability and security of the global economy and to established international supply chains have occurred, threatening to dampen business confidence and make the future less predictable.
Covering these global uncertainties in his introduction to this edition of Insight, Tony Dale, Mills CNC’s Group CEO, acknowledges the realpolitik, but remains positive citing the recently-signed UK/US trade deal as being ‘good news’ for UK manufacturing – particularly for the aerospace and automotive sectors.
Indeed, the whole tenor of this edition of Insight is one of optimism and inspiration, and positions Mills CNC, through its advanced machine tools and automation systems, as being the natural and bright choice for UK and Irish component manufacturers everywhere, irrespective of their size or the scope and scale of their operations, looking to improve their productivity and increase their competitiveness.

Four recently completed customers’ case studies focusing on the motorsport, materials handling, oil and gas and architectural fabrication sectors are cases in point and have pride of place in the edition.
Continuing with the positivity, details of a new, eagerly-anticipated best-practice ‘one-hit’ machining technology event are provided in the Summer edition.
Titled ‘THE ONE SHOW’, this two-day machine tool technology fest (15th & 16th October) taking place at Mills’ Campus facility in Leamington will, through challenging machining demonstrations and in-depth technical seminars, appeal to component manufacturers looking to find out more about one-hit machining and how it can improve their productivity, performance and profitability.
Two multi-axis and multi-tasking DN Solutions’ machine tools (e.g., a recently-launched DVF 5000 Second-Generation 5-axis machining centre, and new DNX 2100SB mill-turn machine), will be the ‘stars of the show’ at the event.
In addition to customer case studies and events, the Summer edition also includes information on Mills’ revamped and relaunched ‘SMART Options’ machine tool rental scheme – a proven and popular route for component manufacturers to acquire additional machining capacity and capabilities, as well as a couple of features on two of Mills’ best-selling DN Solutions’ machine tool ranges – the Lynx 2100 compact lathe series and the new DNM 4500/5700 and 6700 (Fourth-Generation) range of 3-axis vertical machining centres.
“The latest edition of Insight is really all about looking forwards and how our advanced technologies can help component manufacturers maintain their competitive edge and achieve real and tangible growth.
“The launch of our new DNX 2100 range of entry-level, multi-tasking mill-turn machines in October, and THE ONE SHOW Technology Event where a new DNX 2100SB will make its UK debut, are particular highlights occurring in the second half of the year.
“To make sure you don’t miss out on these and other developments, remember to visit our website and check out our social media channels.”
Tony Dale, Group CEO of Mills CNC
