DK Holdings Limited, a leading ISO-certified manufacturer of Precision Diamond Tooling, has further enhanced its in-house engineering capabilities with the addition of a new Harrison Alpha 1400XS CNC/Manual Combination Lathe.

This investment is part of the company’s ongoing strategy to strengthen its capacity to deliver highly accurate, precision-engineered components, including bespoke and small to medium batch production.

The Alpha 1400XS offers the flexibility of manual, conversational, and fully automated CNC operation, enabling the production team to efficiently machine complex parts using in-house CAD/CAM programming. This makes it an ideal solution for low-volume or specialist work where adaptability and repeatability are key.

DK Holdings’ Sales & Marketing Director, John Emptage, commented:

“This latest addition represents our commitment to continuously invest in state-of-the-art machinery, allowing us the flexibility to machine precision bespoke products and small to medium batch work for our customers across a wide range of sectors.

Our team has built a strong reputation for quality and performance in Precision Diamond Tooling, and this new lathe enhances our ability to deliver high-accuracy, machined components that support and complement our tooling range.”

The new lathe is now fully operational at the company’s ISO-certified facility in Kent, UK, and will support increased demand for tailored engineering solutions from both UK and international customers.
