Trend Machinery & Cutting Tools Ltd recently attended an in-house show with one of its Modular Window System dealers, Tewkesbury Saw Company, Gloucestershire.
Colin Peacock and Ian Small from Trend were on hand and ran a number of demonstrations to interested parties throughout the two-day show.
The demonstration consisted of a complete outer frame for a high performance timber window produced in less than five minutes on Trend’s own sliding table spindle moulder.
Attendees to the show were said to be amazed at the speed and accuracy achieved by the Trend system that allows the spindle height and fences to be set in seconds and not altered to produce all of the slots, tenons and profiles on the outer frame and sash.
The Trend system can produce eight different styles of window as standard and there are ten different profile styles available off the shelf.
An existing customer of Tewkesbury Saw, Keith Davies – who purchased the system back in 2010 – was also present, and was able to give potential customers an insight into how the system has revolutionised his joinery business.
Ian Small from Trend commented that it is not just the speed and accuracy of the system that impresses people, it is the fact that both tooling and machines are kept in stock in the UK for immediate despatch.
Several orders for machines and tooling were placed after the show and had all been despatched within three weeks of the orders being placed. This included a non-standard spindle moulder that had to be brought in direct from Trend’s Italian machine supplier.
Trend and Tewkesbury Saw Company are already looking forward to an equally successful in-house show in March.
