Investment makes DJJ competitive in global markets

A £1 million investment in high technology machinery is helping DJJ Engineering stay competitive in global markets, and even win back work that had been lost to India.

DJJ was established in 1976 in Pontypool, South Wales and offers a one-stop CNC service for precision machined parts from design and prototyping through to doorstep delivery.

Having established a strong reputation for its machining services DJJ appreciated the need to evolve to meet the ever increasing demands of a  global CNC market where quality and price are crucial.

It realised that it had to addresses the issue of competitive pricing to redress the balance of  work lost by UK companies to competitors in the Far East and took the brave decision to invest heavily in highly productive technology.

Its £1million investment programme included both Citizen MS32V sliding head lathes and a brand new Index six-spindle CNC turning centre which alone cost nearly three quarters of a million pounds. The new 6 spindle machine is fully automated for the production of quality components from bar up to 32mm. It can cope with the most complex of turned parts – the more complex the better – including back-working with 32 Axis and simultaneous machining at 6 main spindles.
