An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release SKS to distribute XYZ machines tools in Scotland from SKS Engineering, which we summarised at the time by saying "XYZ Machine Tools has appointed SKS Engineering as its distributor in Scotland to support the full XYZ range throughout the region.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Citizen offers adaptive guide bush for CNC lathes from Citizen Machinery UK: "Citizen has developed an adaptive guide bushing (AGB) solution, which is intended to enable the use of a cheaper bright bar instead of the normal ground or specially prepared bar material. ".
 
In September 2009, we covered the news from Guill Tool & Engineering - take a look at Guill provides flow analysis software which says: "Guill Tool and Engineering has been providing the US Navy with sub-safe level one nuclear and non-nuclear components, as well as tooling systems for the medical extrusion industrial marketplace. ".
