Two Hurco VMX30t vertical machining centres (VMCs) have been added to the subcontract machine shop of Schivo Group in Waterford, on the south coast of Ireland. Compared with a VMX42 installed in 2004, the latest machines are 50 per cent more productive, due entirely to the increased functionality of Hurco's conversational programming software, WinMax, incorporated into the control systems.

It would seem simple. Some construction sites have an excess of material, others have insufficient. So why can’t they simply exchange these materials? It would be the most sustainable option; avoiding landfill and potentially, unnecessary quarrying of primary aggregates. The Environment Agency and numerous NGO’s actively promote such approaches, and there are a number of mechanisms by which the exchange of surplus materials can take place...

In food and beverage retailing, a self-adhesive label can create a multi-functional solution that will both simplify accurate workflow and product throughput and provide an invaluable additional level of product authentication.
