Hull toolmaker invests big to aid global manufacturers as it eyes expansion

A Hull precision manufacturer has invested £450,000 in new high tech machinery to speed up production and increase automation.

Paragon Toolmaking’s latest investment will serve an international order book, with products used across automotive, construction, aerospace, pharmaceuticals and white goods manufacturing.

And following a successful 2022, the company has invested in a new computer numerically controlled machine, which has a large three by two metres bed to cope with large die sets and plates, and works at twice the speed of machinery previously used by the Paragon team. A new automated 70cm by 100cm surface grinder will also help increase production speeds, freeing up team members to work on other projects once set running.
