The overview of the industries of mechanization in our country always leaves a room for surprise. In the town of Areso, in an estate surrounded by mountains, one finds, after access in works of steep ramps, one of the machines with more technology of our country, model NT 4200 of Mori Seiki (marketed in Spain by LM Machinery). In Euskron, the company located in this beautiful place, use this machine and others to manufacture quality products, clamping tools mechanical serve other many like them, and to themselves, for machining.

The Euskron company was founded in 1989 in Andoain, Guipúzcoa, at a height of work, and just before the severe recession of the early 1990s. It exactly was created on December 22 of that year, the day of the Christmas lottery. The lottery not played and was not one that overlooked factor luck to focus on the labour factor. And so, with work, knowledge and a clear commitment to quality, Euskron has come to the present day with a product that many would like to for themselves. At the base, as so many other times, the people are. A total of 22 employees, 14 of them in the production and Avelino García, his Manager, leading the company, dan impossible shapes to the highest quality steels.

On the control, based on Fanuc, Avelino García says: "I came to the determination of which I was not going to cause problems".
In 1999 it moved to its current location, in the Eluseder industrial park of Areso (Navarra), very close to the frontier with Guipúzcoa. Factory tool of mechanical subject and her destined primarily for the sector of machine tools, especially for the wind sector applications, automotive, and hydraulics. "We know usually - Avelino García - due the special tool, but we also have a wide range of standard tool".

In the standard or special thing, Euskron is one of these companies has been committed to quality as a means to survive. "We always work a steel of high quality." "We mechanized and then try, a type of work that we subcontract, although we have a temple for urgent cases oven."

The end result is a product, for many possible applications cutting tools: "After manufacture steel bodies, apply them the chips, which we previously bought to eventually commercialize all under our own name." We offer tools that can do things that others can't. Many are the 'Ferrari' tools, despite being a small and little-known company. "." Euskron also provides parts for white markings.

The type of steel is decisive in the final quality. "If the tool is cheap, spent much in supplies." "It is much less profitable, because having even less invested in the body just leaving more expensive" explains the Manager of the company.

Manufacture of tools is an area which requires to work very accurately. "It is a field in which we operate very well." "We give more accuracy than others in the product and it is here where we can compete with those working in large volumes of production".

In addition to the quality of materials and precision, diversity is also relevant. Avelino Garcia explains: "We have standard tools, but approximately 60 per cent of our offer is made upon request." "Sometimes, when problems arise with standard tools, we, that we master special, can provide a specific solution to this problem and give the fair tool for this application."

It is, therefore, in particular, where Euskron has his competitive advantage, but is sufficiently equipped to enter other fields of battle: "Sometimes also went to compete with the large manufacturers of tool." "Let us not forget that, despite doing special things, we can also do the standard and it is logical that we also want to enter this market and take advantage of the ties of trust that customers will engage with us."

High technology for more accurate and less cost

In the position to continue betting by staying focused on quality tools or enter into other fields, the new Mori Seiki machine is a declaration of intentions. "It is an extremely precise machine, but not only that." We want to be a machine that works alone, day and night, even on weekends, for which we have also acquired a robot ABB for the loads. This manufacturing cell is part of a project of r & d, we have already presented to the Government of Navarra looking for their financial support, to get the maximum performance to our teams. "It's a development that will allow us to cut costs, among other things because the machine will be completely alone, without any operator attention."

Design your own tools

Euskron began designing its tools in the early 1990s, with AutoCad. He then spent Solidwork and, subsequently, in order to control the 5 axes, opted for Unigraphics. "Hand in hand with an engineering - account Avelino García - just controlling the design program." At the moment, once we resolve everything about post-processor already we are ready for everything. We have four people in engineering. "All designs them we do and normally, with some exceptions, do not work of machining for third parties."

The Mori Seiki NT 4200 of Euskron was the first of this model installed in Spain. It was purchased for about a year and a half after an in-depth analysis done by Avelino García on their needs. "We needed a machine of this style - says-". I saw the machine in Germany, I was in Japan studying and I already liked. "However, understandably, have had to think again before making the investment".

The Manager of this company has been already many years "between irons" and is a great connoisseur of the mechanics. Based on his experience opted for the 4200 Mori Seiki NT not without first having considered other possibilities. Well known: "It is a machine with two lathes, which make splitters at once." It is very accurate, with diezmilésima of degree (allows drilling on inclined). It has turret down, which is as if it were a normal lathe, with double row of tool to be able to work left and right, and turret of turning up, is in theory a head of milling, although with the lathe tool oriented can turning. Also has a tilt of ± 120 degrees, which allows tools in five axes. The threaded rigid is also another great offering. "The movement that makes is so accurate that you have the security that will not break the male and do not need any prevention mechanism to prevent this rupture."

But in the workshop of this manufacturer of tools not everything is there. It also has other national, Anayak, CMZ or Ger manufacturing machines. "We have grown with products here and Mori Seiki is the first foreign Add." I chose it because I think that the only one that gives me is what I want. The others are more lathe. This is lathe and milling machine and its ability to seem me incomparable. Before buying I looked at several machines and I did an exhaustive analysis. Of Mori Seiki gave me confidence and I think that its axes will be more durable and much higher capacity. "While it was a more expensive machine, end up deciding me for her".

The total weight, the weight of the casting that incorporates, the engines, the spindles, the kW power, the rigidity of the machine seeing her nude, speed... Avelino García analyzed everything. Also control, based on Fanuc, "control" he says. "I also reported and recabé information between users and came to the determination that Fanuc I was going to cause problems".

To their own conclusions the factor was added confidence in the decision to purchase. The Manager of Euskron knew LM Machinery for years "because I've long been watching companies and know how to work the machines". I.e., it opted for LM Machinery with knowledge, having seen mu-chas installed machines. In fact, if he dared to install the first machine in Spain of this model was by his confidence in the Japanese manufacturer and representative LM Machinery.

Complete the offer with other products

In addition to the tools of own manufacture, Euskron sells strawberries of hard metal plates, drill bits, jaws and other similar components that are commonly used in a workshop. You have been win the confidence of the client, often have solved their problems with their own tools, also facilitates the entry with the products it sells.
