As part of Xtrac’s continuous improvement philosophy, the specialist in transmission technology has confirmed a £1m investment in the three new machines at its Thatcham headquarters in the UK: a Sodick EDM machine, a DMG Mori CNC turning centre and a Behringer bandsaw. Together, this trio of arrivals will further improve Xtrac’s ability to deliver high-precision gearing solutions to the highest quality.

Xtrac also remains committed to staying at the cutting edge of gear design and manufacture by investing in the upgrade of existing equipment to take advantage in developments in technology and software. In December, the company’s Klingelnberg P40 gear inspection machine was upgraded to deploy the latest closed-loop bevel manufacture process and technology suite.
