City of Wolverhampton College has made a major investment in a range of machine tools
from XYZ, ensuring local businesses have access to a pool of young talent to help grow and
develop engineering facilities in this industrial heartland. The college first purchased XYZ
machines back in 2015.
The new XYZ models – a selection of manual mills, manual lathes, CNC bed mills with
ProtoTRAK RMX touchscreen controls, and a vertical machining centre and CNC lathe fitted
with Siemens Sinumerik CNCs – are located in the new £8.1m Advanced Technology and
Automotive Centre. Jim Wilkins, curriculum manager for engineering, says: “The purchase of
the XYZ machines has proven to be the right choice over the years due to their build quality
and XYZ’s service and support.”
