Arrk Europe has invested in a 3, 200 tonne injection moulding machine from Krauss Maffei for its tooling and molding facility in Petersfield, Hampshire. According to the company, the purchase of the KM 3200 – 33000MX is a clear statement of Arrk’s continued growth in the UK and its commitment to providing customers with a range of first class capabilities.
Peter Kite, plant operations manager at the Petersfield technical centre, said: “This is great news for everyone, staff and customers alike. This new machine makes us ideally placed to support our customers’ needs now and well into the future.”
The £1m is due to be delivered in February, becoming fully operational during in March. Arrk already operates a 3,200 tonne machine at the site, but with growing demand from clients in the aftermarket the decision was made to add a second installation.
