Leon Paul London Fencing CNC SYIL

SYIL CNC Machining in Sport

We are proud to have supplied another SYIL X7 CNC machine to a UK based institution in the world of sport!

Leon Paul manufacture high-quality fencing equipment in their factory in London, specialising in design cutting edge fencing equipment. Engineered, designed and manufactured in London.

Established in 1921, Leon Paul is the only fencing company run by Olympic Fencers, offering innovative fencing gear at the forefront of technology.

Through automation and ingenuity, Leon Paul Equipment have been able to produce top quality swords and other fencing equipment repeatably and accurately making it possible to supply to customers the world over. Previously customers had to physically visit their supplier to find the right fit.

We made our acquaintance at the Mach2022 exhibition at the NEC. It was clear to the team that value for money was the biggest advantage of the SYIL CNC Machines and of course they have also joined our growing SYIL Users Facebook group.

To complement their tooling department, Leon Paul ordered and took delivery of a SYIL X7 with:

  • LNC M6800 Controller
  • 3.7kW spindle
  • 16 station Automatic Tool Changer
  • 4th Axis upgrade
  • Tool and Work probes
  • Our exclusive LNC expansion screens 

They installed the machine themselves, however we were there to finalise the setup and to train their engineers.

We wish Leon Paul the best of luck with their new machine, and will be on hand to support them on any queries that may arise.

    World First CNC Titanium Oyster Knives

    Emergo Designs create worlds first titanium oyster knives, made using the SYIL X7.

    With the help of the SYIL X7 CNC Machine fitted with an LNC controller, Emergo have brought a unique product to market. Watch how a billet of titanium is transformed into a masterpiece, almost too pretty to use! 

    Alex Bol, Owner of Emergo Designs said;

    "Ever since I’ve graduated as an engineer, I wanted to bring CNC into my knife making process. It takes a lot of thought and programming to run a computer controlled milling machine. The advantage is that once the computer knows what to do, the making becomes partially automated."

    The reason why I wanted to start CNC milling these oyster opening tools is the extra creative freedom that it’s offering. Titanium is more flexible and it’s impossible to rust. But you could never successfully work the metal by hand."

    "My knives are a combination of craftmanship and modern manufacturing."

    "In 2014 I developed my first oyster knife. Now my company Emergo Designs proudly makes and sells exclusive oyster opening tools that ship all over the world."

However, with the rise of additive manufacturing, more and more companies are adding 3D printing into the workflow. So, why should you combine CNC and 3D? (more…)
