Miguel Libertini s.a., top quality from Argentina

Miguel Libertini S.A. is an automatic turning and machining company located in Boulogne in the San Isidro district of Buenos Aires in Argentina; the company specialises in the manufacture of machined parts for the “precision parts” market.
The company began operating in the 1970s using automatic cam-type lathes with fixed spindle turning centres. At the beginning of the 1990s, it began using CNC lathes and in 2002 acquired its first computer numerical control single spindle lathe with sliding head from Tornos (DECO 13).
