A UK manufacturing boom has helped one of the world\u2019s leading press manufacturers secure its biggest pipeline of new machine orders for years.<\/p>\n
Bruderer UK, which employs 12 people at its factory in Luton, is in the process of installing its seventh new high-speed press in the last 12 months – a 50% increase on the same stage last year.<\/p>\n
Managing Director Adrian Haller believes interest in its industry-leading technology and technical \u2018know-how\u2019 is soaring thanks to a concerted reshoring drive that is seeing supply chains shorten after the pandemic and domestic manufacturing becoming increasingly competitive with low-cost countries.<\/p>\n
This has seen customers from the automotive, electrification, aerospace, medical, food and construction sectors engage on a host of turnkey projects that will involve complete production solution lines being installed.<\/p>\n
Engineers from Bruderer are in the middle of their busiest period for over a decade and are installing full turnkey high-speed press lines (from 25 to 50 tonnes) inclusive of tooling, servo feeders, decoilers, multi-way rewinders, vision systems and press and tool monitoring systems.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a real resurgence taking place and we need to talk about it more\u2026orders are up, investment is up, and industry is desperately crying out for more workers,\u201d explained Adrian Haller.<\/p>\n
\u201cUK industry is bouncing back from the shackles of the pandemic. We tend to be a good barometer for the health of the sector and, whilst our refurbishment and repair work has always been strong, this is definitely our biggest year for a long time for new machine installs.\u201d<\/p>\n
He continued: \u201cAll of this is being achieved against a backdrop of rising energy prices and inflation. There\u2019s also a big challenge around recruitment and attracting young people and mature workers back into industry \u2013 a challenge that is being exacerbated by the service sector hiking up salaries.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bruderer UK is a market leader in high precision punching technology and turnkey solutions.<\/p>\n
Its high-speed presses are synonymous with maximum performance, at highest precision with unsurpassed reliability in the sheet metal stamping and forming industry.<\/p>\n
The company range is focused on the BSTA series with a nominal force of 18 to 250 tonnes and a stroke rate range of between 1 to 3000 strokes per minute.<\/p>\n
Adrian went on to add: \u201cThere\u2019s a real appetite to invest in the latest technology and we must be prepared for this by ensuring we have the capabilities and technical expertise on hand to identify the right solutions for clients\u2026solutions that will deliver cost savings, new capacity, and efficiencies.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re responding to the challenge by putting plans in place for further investments in the UK – more news will follow once contracts are signed.\u201d<\/p>\n
He concluded: \u201cThere\u2019s also MACH 2024 to plan for and I\u2019m delighted to announce we\u2019ll be taking our biggest ever presence as part of the new \u2018MMMA\u2019 Sheet Metalworking Village.\u201d<\/p>\n
