More than 700 customers visited the recent Haas Demo Day held at IMT Manesar, Haas Factory Outlet (HFO)—a division of CNC Servicing and Solutions. A ribbon cutting ceremony, facility tours and live cutting demonstrations were among the highlights of a highly successful event at this auto hub in north India. "To attract over 1,100 people underlines the growing importance that this high tech, engineering-driven city gives to adopting the latest CNC technology," states Terrence Miranda, Managing Director, HFO Mumbai. "It also reinforces how Haas solutions offer an unmatched combination of technology and affordability, which are so crucial in today's competitive environment." Manesar is a rapidly expanding Auto hub located around 30 kms Southwest of New Delhi. Less than 2 km away is plant of Maruti Suzuki Udyog, where around 5,000 people are employed. The automotive, steelmaking, automation and power generation sectors are also well represented in the area. All this made for a well-attended series of Manesar Demo Days 2016. The event opened with a high profile ribbon cutting ceremony. Hideo Yoshioka, Managing Director, Munjal Kiriu formally inaugurated the event. Following photos, the crowd left the red carpet and headed inside to witness live cutting demonstrations on two of the company's best-selling CNC machine tools: A Haas VF-2 CNC vertical machining centre and a Haas ST-35 CNC turning centre. Like all Haas CNC machines, the VF-2 and the ST-35 are built at the company's one and only factory in California, US.
