We started to do business through Alibaba.com in September, 2008. That was our first attempt. It was out of my expectation that I was very interested in it. We started to believe in B2B website, especially Alibaba.com, because we can receive 50-60 inquiries per month through Alibaba.com. We even have established good business relationship with some small overseas material suppliers. Meanwhile, Alibaba.com helped us promote our items in the overseas market. That was an opportunity for us.

Many overseas customers phoned in to praise our high quality items and excellent after-sale service. That made us extremely happy. We have researched and developed a new product---sprayer of high standard this year. It will be the brand name product of “Made in Zhejiang”. We intend to keep on doing business on Alibaba.com. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you are interested in our items.

Nowadays, E-commerce is so important in our daily life. We deeply feel that we will lose customers if we are out of this field. We can receive more overseas E-mails, phone calls than before. We are no longer just depending on regular customers. Everything is getting better and easier.

A new

high-performance wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) system has been launched by GF AgieCharmilles for micro-projects and super-precision applications.

The CUT 1000 takes a classic machine tool set-up which has been "redesigned from the bottom up", giving the technology a heavily reinforced and rigid machine base with slide blocks run on roller guide rails positioned directly on the monobloc.

Mutual interference is also eliminated by separate guideways for the X and Y-axis, with high-quality measuring equipment allowing for particularly precise and accurate machining.

The company is hoping that the new system will deliver improved productivity, greater manufacturing flexibility and increased accuracy on previous releases for micro-CNC machining.

A touch screen remote control complements the system, allowing operators to input relevant data much faster, reducing time spent on job set-ups.

Alongside its EDM projects, AgieCharmilles also specialises in high-speed and high-performance milling in order to enhance the growth of businesses in the sector.

XYZ Machine Tools has supplied three new CNC machines tools to Sunderland Engineering Training Association for the apprentice training requirements of local engineering and manufacturing companies.

For the best part of 40 years Sunderland Engineering Training Association has exerted a significant influence on the training of engineering apprentices on behalf of companies based in the north east of England.

Between 35 to 40 school-leavers, mainly 16 year-olds, are welcomed every year into the well-equipped training centre for first-year training, with post first-year monitoring and support ensuring full completion of the apprenticeship.

Now, having invested in three new CNC machines tools supplied by XYZ Machine Tools of Burlescombe, Devon, SETA is better equipped than ever to meet the apprentice training requirements of local engineering and manufacturing companies.

According to Bob Kiszow, SETA's Works Manager, the training centre on the Wear Industrial Estate in Washington, Tyne and Wear is run on a realistic industrial basis, instilling in the people it trains a work ethic and self-discipline.

"Training young people and seeing them develop is extremely worthwhile," he says.

"Whatever their backgrounds, most will achieve NVQ Level 2 at a relatively early stage of the training programme." All three XYZ machines were installed in January 2007 with commissioning and training of SETA's instructors completed the following month.

The two 5.75 kW (7.5 hp)/2500 rev/min XYZ ProTURN SLX 1630 manual/CNC lathes are equipped with the latest generation ProtoTRAK SLX control.

This control - developed by Southwestern Industries, Inc, specifically for one-off and low volume production - can be mastered within a day by operators with no previous CNC experience, while its unique 'traking' feature provides vital reassurance to trainees.

The user can physically wind through the NC program's tool path, checking for possible collision points and, in the process, boosting operator confidence.

The third machine is a full-CNC 9 hp/8000 rev/min XYZ Mini Mill 450 compact vertical machining centre equipped with a CNC7 control.

This control is easily configured to match existing skills, which is particularly helpful for first-time CNC users and trainees who may otherwise be overwhelmed by CNC language, features and screen displays.

The full-colour graphics displayed on the high-resolution LCD screen allow verification of tool path and part program prior to commencing machining, with operator confidence guaranteed by the synchronised display between the graphics and machine movement - there is no discrepancy between what appears on the screen and what the machine actually does when the program runs.

And there are other safeguards, including a 'mid-program start' feature that allows a program to be verified graphically up to the point where machining should recommence.

At this point the operator can then switch over to 'run' mode Before deciding on the XYZ machines, Bob Kiszow says SETA member companies were asked for their recommendations and individuals responsible for CNC purchases within their those companies invited to check out the machines' specifications and performance.

"We did our homework", he says, "and decided that, pound for pound, we were getting machines that would do a good job for us while also looking the part - and that's important in terms of enthusing young people about the technology of the future." SETA adopted the Engineering and Marine Training Authority's Modern Apprenticeship when it was introduced formally in 1995, and as part of the formal off-the-job element provides a first-year, 30-week, transition from the basics of manual machining to full-blown CNC.

The full training programme leads to a minimum qualification of NVQ Level 3, with part-time college attendance affording apprentices the opportunity to achieve a Higher National Certificate.

Lawrence Whitney, SETA's Chief Executive, says member companies usually employ and pay apprentices from day one, so a high standard of performance and behaviour is required during the training programme.

A commitment by individuals, he adds, "is particularly important in view of the safety aspects of working in engineering - and safety combined with ease-of-use are crucial factors that must always be taken into account when assessing the performance and operation of any machine tool.".

Jean Michel Vallet has built his engineering workshop by making precision components on CNC machines for mostly local companies, but always with one eye on his long-held dream of building a race car.

In the early 1970s, Vallet was quick to realise the potential of CNC, investing in the first of many numerically controlled machines.

In the late 1990s, the time came to move to new premises; and it was the ideal opportunity to streamline the company's workshop.

'When we built this new factory, we had something like seven different makes of CNC machine tools,' said Vallet.

'Running the factory was complicated and inefficient.

'For the sake of productivity, we had to standardise.' In 1998, Vallet took a trip to the Paris machine tool show where, where he came across Haas CNC machine tools.

'We found the best machines for our growing company,' he added.

'All Haas machines have the same control, which means if you can program one, you can program all of them.

'Plus, they offer lots of torque, which is ideal because we often use large diameter end mills on stainless steel.' He was also impressed with the Haas fourth-axis capabilities.

The company now owns several Haas machines, including a VF-9 vertical machining centre.

Vallet began by supplying a local company making machines for bottling plants.

Today, the company's bread-and-butter work, the work which will pay for Vallet to pursue his motor racing dream, is mainly making parts for companies building food packaging and processing machines, plus some special and secretive aerospace projects.

'We make scale models of new and prototype aircraft, which are used for wind tunnel testing and are full of sensors measuring airflow and aerodynamic forces,' he said.

'We also make five-axis parts for our aerospace customers, which are actually comparatively straight forward to machine.

'The trickiest parts we make are for the food processing industry, machined from special stainless steels.

'These parts often have very tight tolerances, which is a challenge because we have to find ways of making them at the price the customer wants to pay.

'It's demanding work, which we're able to do because we use accurate but relatively low-cost machine tools.' In Vallet's busy workshop is a line of Haas machines including eight CNC vertical machining centres and five CNC turning centres.

One, a Haas VF-1, runs 24 hours a day using a Kuka robot arm to change parts.

An adjacent PC, using software designed personally by Vallet, controls the robot separately.

PCs interconnect all the machining stations, allowing managers to keep tight control of planning and scheduling.

The factory runs three shifts and 24 hours a day; 10 Haas machines running through the night with just five operators on duty.

'My aim is to create an entire racing car from just six solid blocks of aluminium, in 70 hours, using only four tools,' said Vallet.

Big blocks of aluminium, he admits, but just six, from which he intends to machine all of the major and supporting structural components, including the chassis, suspension, mounting brackets, and so on.

No castings, no extrusions, just solid parts.

'We'll buy-in brakes, glass, wheels, that sort of thing, we'll make the body from glass fibre and we'll use an Alfa Romeo V6 engine, giving 340HP,' he added.

'But otherwise, we'll make it here, on one Haas machine, in less than a week of running two shifts a day.'.

Precision toolmaker Hanson Thorpe, based in Middleton, Manchester, has recently invested in two CNC machine tools from Agie Charmilles.

An FO 550s spark erosion machine and a Mikron VCE 800 Pro 3-axis milling machine were installed at Hanson Thorpe's facility in January and April respectively, and are being used to manufacture high-precision, complex plastic injection mould tools (pre-production tools, single and multi-impression, 3D form and twin-shot) for the medical devices, automotive, electronics and consumer goods sectors.

These machines have also enabled Hanson Thorpe to diversify its operations into complex part production for specialist high-precision industries, such as medical and surgical instruments.

In 2007, the company invested in a purpose-built and designed 3-axis high-speed machining centre, a Mikron Graphitemaster, which in conjunction with special diamond cutting tools, is used to machine graphite electrodes.

Once machined, inspected and measured, the electrodes are transferred to Agie Charmilles spark erosion machines for mould manufacture.

The FO 550s is a large, high-performance die-sink machine with 600 x 400 x 450mm (X, Y, Z) travels, which can handle parts of up to 1,600kg.

The machine produces consistently high and homogenous surface finishes (0.1 micron Ra), eliminating the need for costly and time intensive secondary polishing operations.

Owing to the machine's rapid Z-axis movement, which facilitates the optimum evacuation of particles and debris from the spark gap - plus the machine's high acceleration rates - intricate details and features such as medium-to-deep ribs and thin walls can be machined 30 per cent faster and to greater accuracy.

The machine also delivers increased productivity, and can be left running unattended (lights-out) for longer machining operations.

The VCE 800 Pro is a powerful, high-precision 3-axis machining centre used by Hanson Thorpe to manufacture plates, bolsters and larger mould tools.

The machine is also used for high material removal machining (roughing) operations.

It has a good working envelope (X 800mm, Y 500mm, Z 540mm), and is equipped with a powerful 18.5kW 10,000rpm spindle.

The machine has fast rapids (24m per minute in X and Y and 20m per minute in Z), and was supplied with laser tool and workpiece probes, and linear scales.
