New Vertical Panel Saw Showroom for TM Machinery

Woodworking machinery distributor, TM Machinery Sales Ltd, has opened its brand new showroom in Leicester. Spanning over 80 square meters, the new machinery showroom, which has been completed alongside an extended stores department, spacious open-plan offices and upgraded employee rest area – features three Striebig vertical panel saws.

Visitors can now experience live demonstrations on the ‘Compact’, ‘Standard S’ and ‘Control’, talk to technical staff and learn more about TM Machinery’s sales and after-care service.

“We had a very clear vision when it came to building our new showroom,” explains Matt Pearce, Managing Director of TM Machinery Sales Ltd. “We wanted to showcase our business and our machinery brands to our visitors, whilst also offering everything they would need to make an informed decision about the purchase of their new machine.”

Vertical Panel Saw demonstration area

With this in mind, TM Machinery has installed an entry level, middle and top end vertical panel saw into its demonstration area. Each machine features various additions, including manual measuring stops, digital reads outs, automatic positioning systems and backing options, giving visitors a unique opportunity to learn about each model and its capabilities.

Refurbished Vertical Panel Saws

As well as new machinery, a variety of refurbished vertical panel saws are also on display and available for demonstrations. Matt explains, “We have been refurbishing second hand Striebig’s for many years. Because our used machines sell so quickly, we rarely have a fully refurbished machine available to view. These permanent fixtures give visitors a good example of the lengths we go to when refurbishing and installing a used model and it has already proven to be a great sales tool.”

Extended Spares Department

The extended spares department highlights the company’s growing portfolio and commitment to the industry. “Striebig is known for its build quality and longevity. Vertical panel saws dating back to the 1960’s can still be supported and, whilst many manufacturers rely on machines becoming obsolete after 10 years, we still regularly maintain saws that are over 30 years old. In order for us to continue this level of service, we need a sizable spares department that reflects the increasing number of Striebig models we work with.”

Matt adds, “As well offering our customers an opportunity to learn about our machinery brands, we’re keen for our new showroom to promote TM Machinery and what we stand for. Since moving to our premises in 2002, we’ve double our workforce and now offer our largest range of machines to date.  We believe that by introducing a new showroom and upgrading our facilities, visitors will get a good understanding of who we are and the level of service they can expect from the TM Machinery team.”
