Telford
We recently installed an Esprit Arrow cutting machine at Ventilair UK ltd, a company operating in the HVAC industry. The Arrow’s small footprint and competitive pricing give even the smallest workshops access to the latest CNC plasma cutting technology. The Arrow is the clear choice for HVAC ductwork, general sheet metalwork, and light fabrication applications.
Gateshead
The Esprit Viper CNC cutting machine was recently installed at this steelwork contractor because it was for them the most cost-effective way to perform their steel precision cuts. This Viper was installed with Hypertherm’s HyPerformance HPRXD and EDGE Pro CNC system, which gave their CNC cutting machine the smooth precision motion and high reliability they needed.
Mansfield
This company installed 4 Lightning HD machines next to each other. They invested in the double-length version of this CNC cutting machine for optimal productivity. They opted for the Lightning HD as they required for their components the highest cut quality in a heavy-duty environment and the overall costs are considerably lower than a laser cutting machine.
What our customerS say
“Having dealt with Esprit for 8 years now we have purchased 2 CNC cutting machines from them and found them to be extremely well built. The cut quality is excellent from the thinnest to the thickest plates. From sales and management to technical and service all of their team are knowledgeable, helpful, and dependable. They have helped us to grow and as such, we would always recommend Esprit.”
“Thanks to our four Esprit Lightning HD1500 x 6.5 m machines the quality and quantity of BM catalysts being produced have increased exponentially.”
“Your machine has revolutionised our business, it’s just coming up to the 2 years anniversary of the installation and already the machine has paid for itself. I cannot fault Esprit in the slightest for the after-sales service. I am in the process of putting up a new unit on the site and Esprit will get my business again”
