Two Years as Kanya's UK Representative

Celebrating two years of Kanya..
The firm is celebrating the two-year anniversary of distributing the Kanya range in the UK by welcoming Kanya’s International Business Co-ordinator Andreas Kuster from the headquarters in Ruti, Switzerland to its manufacturing unit in Romsey, Hampshire.Thinking Space Systems designs bespoke solutions using Kanya for a range of clients, where applications include safety guards, machine frames, test rigs, lab cars, trolleys, clean rooms, partitions and conveyor frames. Andreas Kuster said, “It is fantastic to visit the Thinking Space team and to see how much they have achieved in just two years.
“Not only are profits and sales up, but the profile of the Kanya brand is stronger than ever in the UK. We are delighted with what Thinking Space has accomplished and say ‘well done’ to the team,” added Andreas.
Large KANYA Machine Frame
November saw the production and assembly of another large machine frame for the KANYA team. The four-part frame measuring 4m wide and 2.5m tall a roll.
Working closely with local company Rotary Logic Machinery, Thinking Space produced designs for Rotary Logic before manufacturing and assembling the framework, which also includes linear slides and plates on roller bearings.
Rotary Logic produce many machines using this concept, to include an unwind and rewind frame mounting the rolls to be printed on, with frames between to mount the mechanical workings and printing equipment. These machines have many other applications such as to print number plate backings.“It’s great to leave the design work up to someone else and have Thinking Space assemble the frames for me when there are tight deadlines to achieve so I can get on with manufacturing the other essential items for the machine” says Paul Taylor, MD of Rotary Logic Machinery.“The KANYA range is a great and flexible solution with the advantage of being able to add extra bits where needed at a later date.” He added.
