In the origin of this decision is the excellent introduction of Mori Seiki in the Spanish market in sectors such as the aeronautical, automotive or of the mechanization of parts. And it is now when Mori Seiki and Fegemu LM Machinery aspire to increase its presence in the field of moulds and dies through the collaboration of the company Juan Martín.

Mori Seiki wants higher market shares in this market and in fact has launched a new generation of machining centres specific to the builders of moulds and dies.

In this sense, Fegemu LM Machinery, such as "dealer" by Mori Seiki, "is a company well established and specialized in various sectors, but not particularly in the molds," says Jorge Garcia. "Therefore we are looking for a company with a suitable profile." Juan Martín exactly fits our needs for its long experience in moulds and dies, his engineering, services, etc. "."

Nativity Martín also explains to MetalUnivers that Mori Seiki isn't a brand new to your company, because a year ago is marketing the range of products Mori Seki at Portugal. "We are well aware of the sector of the moulds, we are a company with a very technical origin and be leaders in the field of moulds." "After stepping down as our relationship with the brand Makino, due to a lack of strategic coincidence, we are very pleased to have approximated to Mori Seiki and LM Machinery."

The agreement does not refer to specific models of machines, but applications that will be used. Provided that a client requires a machine for an application addressed to the industry of moulds and dies, Juan Martín comes into action.

The objective of Mori Seiki, according to Takeshi Saito, President of Mori Seiki Europe, is to increase sales of machines for mold by 30 per cent in Spain. "With the knowledge of this sector - Juan Martín said Takeshi Saito - does not seem unreasonable that goal." We believe that customers will be satisfied to learn more about the benefits of Mori Seiki for moulds and dies and, on the other hand, have the security that will have a good technical service. "For some time we have been expressing to LM Machinery we intend to seek a partner for moulds and dies, and contacts with Juan Martín arrived at the most opportune moment".
