Note to Editors
The 600 Group PLC is a diversified engineering group with three principal areas of activity:
Machine Tools - the business has a strong reputation in the market for metal turning machines. Products range from small conventional machines for education markets, CNC workshop machines and CNC production machines. The manufacturing footprint is supported by selected outsourcing partners and machines are marketed through the Group's wholly owned international sales organisation.
Precision Engineered Components - machine spares are distributed to customers globally to help maintain the installed base of group machines which number in excess of 100,000. Additionally work holding products and taper roller bearings are sold via specialist distributors to OEMs including other machine builders.
Laser Marking - laser marking is a technologically superior alternative to inkjet marking. It requires no consumables and can operate on a continuous high speed basis when integrated into customers' production lines. The business has its own technology and proprietary software. Customer applications are diverse and range from telecommunications to pharmaceuticals. The requirement for increased product and component traceability is one of the market drivers.
