The DN Solutions machine tools take centre stage at the Mills CNC stand. The compact DVF 4000 is


a ‘one-hit’ machining solution, equipped with an 18.5kW/ 12,000rpm (BT 40) directly- coupled spindle as standard. It also features a 400mm diameter, built-in rotary, tilting table with a zero-backlash roller gear cam design for improved process reliability. A 60-tool servo-driven


ATC and integrated thermal compensation increase productivity and part accuracies, while roller LM guideways ensure fast processing speeds.

Drawing on more than 30 years’ of experience in vertical storage systems, Modula Storage Solutions has developed Modula Pallet. The automatic machine allows up to 100 pallets to be stored and handled in metal trays. The machine autonomously


lifts the pallets, which simply have to be placed in the front or side picking bay next to the storage system. Manual or electric pallet trucks can move pallets, there is no need to lift the loads and they can be left in the dedicated space during the loading process. Forklifts can also be used,
