Investing Today. Delivering Now. Ready for Tomorrow.
For manufacturers, the real value of investment in new technology isn’ t the machine itself. It’ s what that investment delivers:
• Greater capacity
• Shorter lead times
• Competitive component costs
• Confidence in the supply chain
Investment at C & M isn’ t simply a response to today’ s order book.
Some C & M customer relationships now extend beyond 30 years.
Maintaining relationships for that length of time means continually investing as well as improving and planning beyond the next order.
That’ s the thinking behind C & M Precision’ s latest investment in a Citizen M532 LFV multi-axis slidinghead lathe, taking our investment in manufacturing technology to more than £ 1 million over the past three years.
Our customers don’ t buy the CNC machines. We do.
The new M532 increases our ability to manufacture increasingly complex components in a single cycle, completing more operations in one setup and reducing additional handling, labour and machining time.
Across production runs of thousands of components, those efficiencies matter.
Many of our customers operate demanding production schedules of their own. A relatively small

precision component arriving late can interrupt a much larger production process, making reliability and capacity every bit as important as the component itself. That’ s why we invest ahead of demand.
Managing Director John Cable first saw the Citizen flagship M532 being manufactured during a factory visit to Citizen in Japan and immediately recognised how its capability could support C & M’ s customers in the years to come.
The recent £ 300,000( approx) investment strengthens our manufacturing capability that has been built over more than three decades. It provides additional capacity for existing work while

Advanced technology, however, is only one part of manufacturing reliability. It has to sit alongside experienced engineers, robust processes, intensive and continuous quality control and an understanding of each of our customer’ s requirements.
Procurement and sourcing teams aren’ t choosing a CNC machine when they place an order with C & M.
They’ re choosing a manufacturing partner they trust to deliver the right component, to specification, at the agreed cost and when their production schedule needs it.
