    The Star GB open house event begins in less than four weeks ‼️ This year’s event will be bigger and better, showcasing seven Star models that cover a wide range of machining capabilities and the latest solutions from our technical partners. Here’s a round-up of the machines on show: ⭐️ SB-20RII: an all-new model making its UK premiere following its worldwide debut in Chicago (IMTS) and Stuttgart (AMB). The new SB offers various improvements including additional tool stations, increased power, higher spindle speeds, advanced control features, and improved accuracy. ⭐️ SK-51 Type A: following a successful preview at last year’s open house event, we’ll be showcasing our latest two-inch bar capacity fixed head lathe which is now available to customers. The machine is equipped with twin 12-station turrets, offering 7.5kW powered driven tools on every station. ⭐️ SD-26 Type E: a new model capable of 26mm diameter machining, developed to give engineers the ultimate mill-turn solution for complex components. The Type E variant offers a programmable B1 head with four front and four rear facing tools, plus an additional six cartridge positions for various attachments. ⭐️ SR-32JIII Type B: the latest 32mm capacity model within the popular SR series, delivering a range of enhancements including improved rigidity, upgraded swarf clearance, refined ergonomics, Step Cycle Pro chip-breaking technology and the inclusion of a sub-spindle flush pump as standard. ⭐️ SP-23: a new series capable of one-inch machining, developed to optimise versatility and performance while maintaining a modest footprint. The machine is equipped with an eight-station front turning platen and a seven-spindle cross-drilling inner tool post, on which a wide variety of tooling attachments can be mounted. ⭐️ SB-16III: superseding the SB-16II, this upgraded model incorporates the latest generation FANUC 0i-TF Plus CNC control system. The machine’s main spindle platen includes five turning tools, a three-spindle cross drilling unit, and a four-station drilling arm. ⭐️ SL-10: accuracy, efficiency and versatility within an ultra-compact footprint. The SL-10 offers six turning tools on the main side and up to five cross-working tool positions, of which four tool positions are available for cartridge attachments such as thread whirling, slotting, gear hobbing, angled drilling and polygon units. ➡️ Register online at www.stargb.com/open

    Congratulations to the entire team for another incredible achievement! We’re thrilled to sponsor such a talented group. 🏆

    🏆 We did it 🏆 So, about this past weekend…. We were at Brands Hatch for the final round of the BRSCC Nankang Tyre UK CityCar Cup and Student Motorsport Challenge. It was very mixed conditions throughout the weekend so it most certainly tested everybody involved. Qualifying on a wet Saturday morning and the car felt awesome! I was so comfortable from the start and managed to put it in P2 over all and P1 in class 👌 Race 1 and the track now dry, I got a terrible start and dropped down to 4th. I knew I had the pace to get past the cars in front so I had to be patient. I got up to second before a safety car came out and with not long to go, I thought I had missed my chance. We managed to restart with only 5 minutes to go, and what a start I got! Getting up to P1 on the first corner. I held my position and started to pull away before the race was stopped by a red flag. P1 over all babbyyyyyyy!! 🏆 Sunday and race 2, the heavens had opened! We had a good wet set up but our tyres weren’t the greatest. I struggled for pace and dropped back slightly to come home P4 over all and P2 in class. These results gave us, Northbrook College the Student Motorsport title for the third consecutive year! Also, I claimed 2nd in the over all drivers championship 🏆🏆🏆 On top of all that, the students from Northbrook College also won the pitstop challenge! They all absolutely smashed it and ended up winning by over a minute!! Amazing job by an amazing group of skilled students 👏 Thank you to everyone that has been part of the journey this year, the team and students, our family and friends, and of course our sponsors who without this wouldn’t be possible Harwin GF Machining Solutions UK Star Micronics GB Rainford Precision Rocked-IT Vega Graphics UK #motorsport #motorsportsphotography #motorracing #champion #winner #season #clubracer #clubracinguk #brscc #nankang #northbrook #student #motorsportengineering #brandshatch #college #university #degree #engineering
