Stuga, specialist cutting and prepping centre manufacturer, have increased its range of window production centres.

Stuga recognised the need for a cutting and prepping centre with a small footprint availbale at an economical price. The result of this is the Microline centre.

The Microline is based on the same technology as the ZX range but does not have a buffer station and produces 400 to 500 windows per week, while the ZX4 is aimed at fabricators who want to make 800 to 1,000 windows per week from a single machine and the ZX3 is aimed at the 600 to 800 per week market.

The Microline has a footprint of 13.7 metres by 2.6 metres.

All three Stuga centres include high frequency motors, full CNC closed loop drives, laser measuring and simultaneous cutting on both sides of the profile to aid fast prepping of trickle vents and doors.

Stuga are taking part in a joint technical co-operation agreement with Sturtz Maschinenbau in Germany, who make PVC-U machinery.
