The Swiss vertical panel saw specialist, Striebig isn’t new to optimisation – it’s an option that’s been on the top model, the Striebig 4D, for a while – but in a move that will be welcomed by many existing Striebig customers, the company showed the prototype of its first retro-fittable optimisation system at Holz-Handwerk, which is expected to be available in the UK from autumn 2018.
“Lean manufacturing is a fundamental part of our business,” begins David Davis, Operations Director at Trovex. “This means putting the right processes in place to maintain quality, accuracy and speed of fabrication.” To assist in this manufacturing process, the hygienic interiors manufacturer has invested in its first Striebig Control 4216 vertical panel saw, which was supplied and installed by machinery distributor, TM Machinery.

TM Machinery’s distribution partners were out in force at this year’s Ligna exhibition in Hannover, with new product launches from German dust extraction specialists, AL-KO and Swiss vertical panel saw manufacturer, Striebig, taking centre stage.
“Working with TM Machinery was easy and fuss free,” begins Andy Brook, Technical Services Officer and Technical Staff Manager at the University of Southampton’s Winchester School of Art.
Vertical sawing facilitates more than just the sizing cut of wood-based materials. This year, Striebig’s Ligna stand will showcase this concept for itself and focus on the brands ‘diversity.’
