At the heart of the cutting shop are our two CNC machining centres. Although 5 Star still employs a manual cutting facility, the majority of cases are produced by CNC methods. The first CNC, or Computer Numerical Control system was installed at 5 Star in early 1993, but this machine was in the extrusion department. This machine, still in operation today, is a V notch sawing system used for notching aluminium extrusions. More of that later.
