About The 600 Group PLC
The 600 Group PLC is a distributor, designer and manufacturer of
industrial products with three principle areas of activities:
Machine Tools
The business has a strong reputation in the market for metal
turning machines. Products range from small conventional machines
for education markets, CNC workshop machines and CNC production
machines. Selected outsourcing partners support the manufacturing
of these machines and they are marketed through the Group's wholly
owned international sales organisation and a global distribution
network.
Precision Engineered Components
Machine spares are distributed to customers globally to help
maintain the installed base of group machines which number in
excess of 100,000. Additionally, work holding products are sold via
specialist distributors to OEMs, including other machine
builders.
Industrial Laser Systems
Industrial laser systems cover laser marking and processing
including cutting, drilling, ablation and a host of other niche
applications in the marking and micro machining sectors. They
require no consumables and can operate on a continuous high speed
basis and can be integrated into customers' production lines. The
businesses have their own technology and proprietary software.
Customer applications are diverse and range from aerospace to
medical and pharmaceuticals. The requirement for increased product
and component traceability is one of the market drivers.
