machinery The Machinery Up-Rising »»The first couple of months in 2015 seemed to have taken a surprisingly good turn for most window and door companies. Many have seen increased production volume for composite doors, bi-fold doors and ‘VS’ windows; creating a demand for automated sawing and machining. Stuga has worked hard to recruit new staff to deal with the surge in demand for automatic sawing and machining centers from production staff to the key backroom people who take care of the equipment once commissioned. Stuga believe back-up support is just has important than the choice of machine, and being able to support fabricators if a machine error occurs is vital. Stuga has a team of experienced and trained technicians both in the field and in the service centre. Stuga currently has a full order book through to autumn this year, installing its high-output machine; the ZX4 and Autoflow-2 sawing and machining center. The top of the range ZX4 can produce up to 1,000 windows per week, and is an advantage to large fabricator. The AutoFlow-2 has an output of around 400 windows per week but is popular with smaller fabricators and manufacturers wanting to create an individual ‘special line’ to create something more than just standard frame.
