Dugard Welcomes Zopo VMC Range to the UK Market

MTDCNC CEO Paul Jones recently visited Dugard’s headquarters in Hove to see first-hand the arrival of a new name to the UK machining sector – Zopo, a range of Vertical Machining Centres (VMCs) now available through the south coast supplier.

Speaking after the visit, Paul said, “Now that sounds like a pretty good deal…”, reflecting on the specification, build quality, and competitive pricing on offer.

Strength, Rigidity, and Choice
The Zopo range is built with a clear focus on strength, rigidity, and high build quality, characteristics that Dugard believes will appeal to machine shops across the country. Buyers will also have flexibility, with a variety of machine sizes and control options available, including Fanuc, Siemens, and Heidenhain.

Strong Start for the Partnership
The early signs are promising – during Paul’s visit, both Zopo machines on display had already been sold, alongside another bridge mill. Dugard reports that more stock will be arriving in the coming weeks to meet the growing demand and ensure quick delivery for customers needing additional machining capacity.

What’s Next
MTDCNC will be following up with visits to the first UK users of Zopo machines to see how they’re performing on the shop floor and to hear directly from the companies who’ve invested in this new technology.

With Dugard’s established service and support network, and Zopo’s emphasis on durability and performance, this partnership is set to offer UK manufacturers a fresh and competitive option for their machining needs.
