At the recent AMB 2024 exhibition in Stuttgart, Matthew Farnsworth, commercial director
at the University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) announced
that machining centre manufacturer Heller had become its latest Tier 1 member. The
German-owned machine tool company has numerous factories, including one in Redditch.
As part of the agreement, a Heller F 6000 five-axis horizontal mill-turn centre will take its
place at the AMRC’s facility in Rotherham in June 2025. The machine will further the
development of aerospace-related applications, especially those involving the machining of
titanium structural and aero engine components.
