MACH Machine Tools, part of the Vigilance Group, has announced that it has appointed Mr Mike Corbett as its new CNC Divisional Manager.

This new senior management position, created to help the company achieve its ambitious growth plans in the future, will see Mr Corbett take responsibility for planning, coordinating and implementing the company’s new product design and development business strategies, including new product launches and product upgrade introductions.

A primary focus for Mr Corbett, certainly in the immediate to medium term, will involve him working collaboratively with the company’s internationally-based machine tool build and control partners helping to develop new, and refine existing, products (including control technologies and software systems) for the European market.

Says Matt Andrew, MACH Machine Tools’ sales director “We’re delighted to welcome Mike on board. MACH Machine Tools is poised for a period of unparalleled growth and, with Mike’s extensive industry knowledge and his unrivalled technical and applications’ experience, I am convinced we will be able to fully exploit the opportunities open to the company.”

In addition to his MACH Machine Tools’ duties and responsibilities, Mr Corbett will also take on a technical consultancy role with Machine Tool Sales Online – the Vigilance Group’s used machine tool and ancillary technology division – providing assistance to help drive its after-sales and training operations.

Says Mike Corbett “MACH Machine Tools is going places – and I want to help the company get there. Great products…great service and great people. It all represents a fantastic opportunity and I am looking forward to the challenge.”
