Mills CNC announces first Zayer machine order

Mills CNC has confirmed that it has taken its first Zayer machine tool order just a few short weeks after signing the distributor deal with the Spanish-based milling machine tool manufacturer.

The machine, a Zayer XIOS G large-capacity horizontal CNC bed mill equipped with a built-in rotary table (1,500mm x 1,500mm) and a 5-axis, 45° milling head, will be delivered to, and installed at, the UK-based customer’s facility in Spring 2023.

“Zayer large-capacity horizontal CNC bed mills, as well as the company’s travelling-column and gantry-type milling machines, complement our DN Solutions’ range of machines perfectly and have helped us fill a gap in our technology provision,” commented Tony Dale, Mills CNC’s CEO.

Although the distributor deal was signed by both companies at the end of 2022, the relationship kicked off in earnest in early January 2023 with Mills arranging for its sales managers, applications engineers and marketing personnel to travel to Zayer’s 20,000m² headquarters and manufacturing facility in Vitoria-Gasteiz to undertake in-depth and extensive product familiarisation and training.

Mr Dale continued: “Zayer’s production facility, located just outside Bilbao, is exceptional, as is the care and attention to detail the company takes to ensure the long-life accuracy and high-performance of its machine tools.

“Particularly impressive is the company’s in-house HeadsLAB facility where its range of 45 and 30° heads are designed, assembled and tested prior to their installation on specific Zayer machines tools.”

The XIOS G machine is one of three different horizontal CNC bed mill models in the Zayer range. However, with different X-, Y- and Z-axis travels, table sizes and configurations available, combined with a range of spindle options and tool change capacities, the range is extensive and versatile. Despite these variations all XIOS models have fast 30m/minute rapid rates and deliver high positional and repeatable accuracies.

Tony Dale concluded: “The XIOS G represents our first Zayer machine tool order, but it will, most definitely, not be the last. To assist future sales, we have now ordered a new Zayer Zero CNC horizontal bed mill for our showroom which will be available for customers to see in the near future.

“Described by Zayer as ‘its most precise and dynamic bed mill ever deigned and built’, we’re confident that the Zayer Zero will prove popular with UK and Irish manufacturers and will help drive sales growth.”
