Findamachine is the exclusive property of Macrotec Machine Tools Ltd., a family- run business established in Cheshire in 1987 selling and maintaining CNC machinery. Customers frequently approach us with a specific requirement and we have spent many hours in the past searching web sites for machine tools to meet their needs. In the end we decided to develop our own search system which currently searches over 1000 websites daily for current in stock lathes. To this we have added an extensive machine tool directory and a huge database of lathe specifications, providing a genuine service to engineers all over the world. We plan to expand the site to include other machinery such as machining centres in the near future.
