“I know the team at Crotts & Saunders is the right company to demonstrate the value that Hurco technology provides manufacturers throughout Virginia and the Carolinas. Hurco CNC technology is especially valuable for high mix/small batch shops where minimizing setup time and maximizing chip time is critical in order to increase profit margins. The dynamic team at Crotts & Saunders is dedicated to finding solutions that improve the speed and quality of manufacturing processes to reduce the overall cost to manufacture products, and I know the Hurco product line of CNC mills and lathes will be a valuable asset as they continue to fulfill their mission,” said Joe Braun, the general manager of Hurco North America.
According to Chris Miller, the vice president and general manager of Crotts & Saunders, “We are proud to partner with Hurco to bring the latest technology to shops throughout the Carolinas and Virginia. Charles Saunders and Marcus Crotts, who founded our company in 1956, were aware of the modern technology being produced around the world and built their company around the intent of bringing ‘Tomorrow’s Technology Today’ to the Carolinas and Virginia. This philosophy still holds true and we are proud of our core beliefs in helping our customers exceed their ever increasing manufacturing challenges. The broad line of Hurco CNC machines, equipped with superior motion control technology and the most versatile control technology available, will help us achieve our mission to help manufacturers increase profitability.”
