en.Wedoany.com Reported - Brother, a Japanese machine tool manufacturer, has completed the relocation and expansion of its European technical center. The new facility is located at Steinmühlstraße in Bad Homburg, near Frankfurt, Germany, covering an area of 1,700 square meters—approximately 2.5 times the size of the original site—and is large enough to accommodate nearly all models of the Brother SPEEDIO machining centers. The center was announced by Whitehouse Machine Tools, the exclusive sales agent for Brother in the UK and Ireland.
The new location, just a 25-minute drive from Frankfurt Airport, aims to facilitate sales, technical knowledge transfer, and training, while showcasing the manufacturer's full range of the latest 30-taper machines. This strategic facility marks a significant expansion of Brother's business footprint in Europe.
Visitors to the center can explore a variety of machine models, including high-torque variants and advanced systems such as the S700Xd2-5AX/100T, which supports automatic tool changes for up to 100 tools. The facility offers opportunities for product demonstrations, allowing potential customers to conduct time studies and trial cuts on various spindle specifications to match their manufacturing needs. The center also features a showroom for complex automation systems and integrated production solutions, designed to eliminate waste and optimize efficiency. Customer service engineers provide specialized support and maintenance training here, and there is a dedicated seminar room for business meetings and technical discussions. Additionally, the center includes a Brother history exhibition area, showcasing the company's 110-year technical heritage through historical products.
Peter Smith, Sales Director of Whitehouse Machine Tools, expressed approval of the upgraded facility. He noted that the center's convenient location makes it easy for the company to bring potential customers to see nearly all the latest Brother machines. This environment provides existing and potential customers with the opportunity to learn directly from Brother technical experts about the latest machine developments, while also exploring auxiliary products and innovative production technologies to enhance manufacturing capabilities. Smith added that Whitehouse Machine Tools retains its own showroom and technical facilities in the UK, offering local support, time studies, and demonstrations for UK and Irish customers, and frequently collaborates with the Frankfurt center for major European events.
