DAY & KNIGHT's new CNC furniture cutting machine being delivered on back of low-loading truck

It’s Finally Here

We are thrilled to announce the arrival of another brand new CNC board cutting machine, which was finally delivered by a low-loading truck on March 12th 2024; a rather wet day. This state-of-the-art technology is another game-changer for our expanding furniture making business and we can’t wait to see the amazing work it will produce.

We couldn’t have been more excited to receive our new machine, although delivery was delayed due to some impacted shipping routes, we knew that our new machine would be worth its wait. Here are a few pictures of its delivery and installation.

Fully Installed In Our Buckinghamshire Furniture Making Workshop

The machine has now been fully installed in our Buckinghamshire factory workshop, which we cleared the week prior, ready for its grand arrival. This new addition will support our other CNC and furniture-making machines, allowing us to offer even faster production times for our clients (trade and domestic). With this additional equipment, we’ll be able to keep creating stunning, bespoke furniture pieces with the same great precision and efficiency, ensuring our processes remain streamlined, affordable and sustainable.

Next Wave Of Expansion

One of the major benefits of our new CNC board cutting machine is the vast array of possibilities it opens up for us in terms of design. The machine allows us to create even more intricate and complicated shapes and designs with ease, making our projects more diverse and unique. It also further improves our sustainability by maximising the amount of sections from any board, thus reducing waste. Our clients will be able to see the incredible difference this machine makes to the diversity and speed of our work too.

Along with this new machine, we’ve also taken on six new team members at the start of 2024. We’re excited to see where this next wave of expansion takes us and are grateful to all our loyal customers for their continued support. Our entire team are looking forward to delivering even more exceptional, beautiful furniture creations for the year ahead.
