Striebig supplies used machinery through TM

A TM Machinery Sales product story

TM Machinery Sales, sole UK agent for the Striebig range, reports an increase in demand for used machines as customers look to cut costs in the economic downturn.

Matt Pearce, sales director, TM Machinery said: "Due to the recession we have a far higher number than usual of used vertical panel saws for sale, mainly due to companies going bust.

"A particular feature of the current situation is that many of the used machines we are selling are younger models, sometimes just a couple of years old.

You would not normally expect Striebig machines less than 10 years old to be available in this way".

Despite usually specifying new equipment, interior display and shop fitting specialist IDESS Retail has bought a three year old Striebig Control model to size standard and laminated MDF panels and chipboard.

Tim Harper, production manager, IDESS explained: "We normally only buy new machinery but we urgently needed a vertical panel saw to handle small batch work, to work alongside a beam saw.

TM had a reconditioned model in stock available for immediate delivery, which was in immaculate condition, and we decided to go for it.

"I don't regret buying second hand on this occasion as the saw is practically indistinguishable from a brand new model - and we saved money in the process".

Every used Striebig saw is thoroughly refurbished by TM engineers before going on sale and comes with a 6 month parts and labour warranty.

Accurate to 0.1mm with unmatched cut quality, they come with guarding, braking, noise control and dust extraction that surpasses current European health and safety legislation.

All machines have conveniently and logically grouped controls, and are evenly balanced and smooth running with only minimal physical effort required by the operator.

They are suitable for cutting practically all sheet materials, such as wood-based panels, plaster board, plastics and aluminium panels.
