Hornet Precision Engineering Ltd has expanded its turning capacity with the addition of a CMZ TA20Y CNC lathe, fitted with a bar feeder, at our facility in South Leicestershire.

The TA20Y is a Y-axis turning centre with live tooling, giving us the ability to mill, drill and tap features directly on the lathe rather than moving parts to a second machine. Combined with the bar feeder, it lets us run longer batches of turned components unattended, feeding stock automatically and keeping cycle times consistent from the first part to the last.

This adds to our existing turning and milling capability, giving customers a wider range of options for prismatic and turned components, in low volumes or longer production runs.

If you have a turned component project in mind, get in touch at sales@hornetprecision.co.uk or 07549 406 901.
