The company's core business is the sale of new CNC milling centers and lathes, provision of warranty and post -warranty service and the supply of turnkey technologies. The company was founded as a family business in spring of 2008 based on individual approach to customers and highquality consulting services not only in terms of technical solutions but also emphasising the ROI. "Several times I have talked the customer out of a more expensive machine or unnecessary accessories that he planned to use only a few times a year," add Mr Pavel Rak Senior. "Our philosophy has always been to provide the customer with a solution that will move him forward technologically, but not hinder him economically. Our customers' business success is in our own interest because only a financially healthy customer can develop and re-invest." At present, macmatic sells CNC milling centers and turning centers of the Akira Seiki brand and CNC machine tools and accessories under its own macmatic brand in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. "We launched our own macmatic brand in 2013 to strengthen the link between the product, services and solutions we provide to our customers," says Ing. Pavel Rak Junior, the company Sales Director. "Using our own brand means a strong commitment to the quality of the products and services we provide." The portfolio of macmatic machining solutions includes vertical speciál 1/2017 T+T T e c h n i k a a t r h ...customised machining solution to fit your purse milling centers, power and speed portal milling centers, five-axis milling centers and horizontal milling centers, complemented by the straight-bed power lathes. This year's additions are the high-speed portal centers for machining of moulds and graphite electrodes. "We are very careful when extending the offer," says Ing. Pavel Rak Junior. "We verify not only the technical and qualitative standards of the machines, but also the references and production plants of the manufacturer. Therefore we have established a permanent branch office in Taiwan, which is in charge of the quality control directly in the manufacturing facility." An integral part of the machine tool business is the after-sale service. Macmatic has a service department with experienced technicians who perform machine installation, warranty and post-warranty service including PLC modifications on CNC control systems. Although the CNC machining centres is a traditional and conservative sector, macmatic brings innovation in terms of new technology application. Visitors to www.macmatic.cz have probably notices the new Configurator application. If you are considering purchasing a new machining solution, this useful application will help you select machines that match your requirements on the basis of a few basic parameters. In a clearly set list you can easily choose a particular model and control system according to technical specifications of individual machines. You can then select suitable accessories, such as Renishaw probes, belt or rake chip cleaners, paper filtration, a larger tool tray, or a 4th CNC controlled Detron axis and other items. The configuration output is a technical offer. If you are registered on the macmatic website, the Akira Seiki milling centre offer includes a price of the machine including its accessories. Users may watch how the Configurator and the Ordering System work in instructional videos on the macmatic website or on macmatic YouTube channel. Directly on the macmatic website you can also purchase accessories for the CNC machine tools. A very popular product is the macmatic Aspira extraction fan. Customers appreciate ease of installation and maintenance and, above all, low operating and procurement costs, as the only consumable Aspira fan part is a HEPA filter that is optional. However, even without the HEPA filter the benefit in terms of clean environment is immediate. "We started to offer Aspira extraction fans about a year ago, and last week we sold the hundredth piece in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Aspira extraction fans combine an effective design, solid performance, excellent quality and a favourable price, precisely in line with macmatic philosophy," concludes Mr Pavel Rak Senior. p www.macmatic.cz
