Rittal laser machining centre revolutionises panel production
In a UK first, Hawarden-based electrical engineering firm, LCA Group, has switched its control panel operations from manual production to end-to-end automation, including laser-machining. The move is expected to transform its productivity and efficiency. LCA Group has invested in a Rittal Automation Systems 3D laser machining centre to revolutionise construction of its stainless-steel panels by automating processes previously done by hand. It has also acquired a Secarex cutting centre to cut DIN support rails, C rails and cable ducts, along with an Averex wiring centre to cut wires to the correct length before stripping and crimp-ing them with wire ferrules.
