At AFM Europe, we are passionate about supporting the next generation of engineers and fabricators. This week we were delighted to install two brand-new Ermaksan sheet metal fabrication machines at the newly opened Northumberland College in Blyth. These state-of-the-art machines – a precision press brake and a high-performance metal guillotine – will play a vital role in giving students hands-on experience with industry-standard equipment.
By providing access to advanced fabrication technology, Northumberland College is equipping students with the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the modern manufacturing and engineering industries. Both the press brake and guillotine are essential machines in sheet metal fabrication, allowing learners to work on real projects that mirror the demands of the workplace.
AFM Europe is proud to be a trusted supplier of press brakes, guillotines, and other fabrication machinery across the UK. Our partnership with leading manufacturers such as Ermaksan ensures that colleges, training centres, and businesses alike have access to robust, reliable, and energy-efficient equipment. By installing these machines at Northumberland College, we are helping to bridge the gap between education and employment while inspiring future generations of fabricators.
Supporting education is a key part of our mission at AFM Europe. We believe that investment in high-quality equipment not only benefits students but also strengthens the wider fabrication and engineering sector. With practical training on modern sheet metal fabrication machines, students will graduate ready to step into skilled roles and drive the industry forward.
If your organisation, training facility, or business is looking for reliable fabrication equipment such as press brakes or guillotines, our team would be delighted to advise you. Get in touch to learn more about our full range of machinery and support services.
