CUTTING EDGE EXHIBITION 2007

Sunday 30th September saw this year’s Cutting Edge Exhibition take place at the new Exhibition Hall at Doncaster Racecourse.  Our show was the first to take place at this new venue, but given the excellent facilities and good transport links we doubt if it will be the last.

We showed a lot of new machinery and innovations this year.  For the first time anywhere people had the chance to test the new Flexam City Finisher and PL90PB Press Bench combination.  This set-up met with universal acclaim.

We also had the Standard “Maxi” Unit of 750 Finisher with pressbench and Bandscourer which had never been exhibited together previously.  This machine set-up showed off the new style mini band unit and adjustable forepart trimmer.

The ever-popular 710 Finisher, which has been far and away our biggest seller over the last 12-months was also eagerly examined.  This particular model featured a third scouring head with scouring band, which may have been new to many of the visitors to our stand.

Our stitchers, the Goodyear Outsoler and Geneva Insoler were regularly and positively test-driven by a number of repairers either looking to invest in this kind of machinery or seeing for themselves the enormous advances made in design and ease of use from their own, unwieldy stitchers.

If we saw you at the Exhibition, thanks for coming along.  If not please feel free to get in touch and we can forward details of the machinery you missed.
