For over 50 years, Denford Limited have striven to bring together the very best CAD/CAM and CNC manufacturing solutions for Design & Technology in Schools
Denford Limited are one of the few businesses operating within the educational sector, which can truly claim to be a British Manufacturing Company. We have a history of design and manufacture and were one of the very first companies to develop a Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) lathe specifically for education and training. In recent times, we have developed and expanded our product range to include the design and manufacture of a comprehensive range of CNC milling machines, lathes and routers, designed for education market; and the Denford products are a familiar fixture in Design & Technology laboratories throughout the world.
