About
UK Shared Business Services Limited awarded a contract to GF Machining Solutions for the supply of an EDM die sink machine to the ISIS Target Production Section.
The machine will enable internal forming and polishing of tungsten components, removing the need for external processing and shortening target manufacturing time to mitigate the risk of ISIS downtime, which costs £300K per day.
Key drivers included surface finish, high precision, reliability, after-sale service, ease of use, and training packages, with size and floor space considerations for a small workshop.
The contract value was AUD 129,950.
