Spinner entry-level, 5-axis machining centre for under £100,000

Three entry-level, 5-axis machining centres were introduced by the German manufacturer, Spinner, at EMO 2013. Called the U5 Compact series, they are cost-optimised versions the established 620, 1520 and 2520 models. Spinner has built this U-series since the late 2000s and will soon ship its 1,000th 5-axis machine.
