5 Reasons to visit our NIKKEN Innovation Centre Europe (NICe)
New Demonstrations
2021 has brought a line-up of exciting new product demonstrations to NICe, designed and implemented by our passionate advanced manufacturing engineering team. Featuring a range of materials, processes and applications to represent a full spectrum of production requirements, these new demonstrations are designed to highlight the superior performance and versatility that can be achieved with NIKKEN solutions.
We take great pride in all our products, and this is no better exemplified than in our commitment to incorporate them into the running of our very own toolroom. Our TID and TP32 demonstrations illustrate our implementation and everyday use of these systems through providing complete tooling assemblies and other equipment to the Boeing Sheffield site in our role as official integrator.
