HMK has struck gold after being announced as the ONLY Siemens Gold Partner in the UK with a specialism in drives and motion control.
This elevated partner status recognises HMK’s decades of experience, technical expertise, and commitment to delivering real value and success to our OEM customers through Siemens technology.
For more than 40 years, HMK has built a reputation as one of the UK’s leading motion control experts. While many can supply Siemens products, few can match HMK’s depth of understanding in how to apply, optimise, and support them to deliver measurable benefits in performance, reliability, and efficiency.
HMK has worked with Siemens for more than 30 years, and we have the largest team of Siemens motion specialists in the UK, backed and recognised by Siemens in both the UK and Germany.
The new Gold Partner status is awarded only to Siemens partners who demonstrate advanced certification, proven technical excellence, and sustained customer success.
Gary Kitchin, HMK Managing Director, said: “The market is full of companies who can supply Siemens products, but how many truly understand those products and the applications they’re used in? The real value comes from understanding how to optimise solutions that make those products perform at their best, and deliver real benefits to OEMs and their customers alike.
“At HMK, our strength lies in combining industry-leading technology with our motion expertise to create optimised, holistic solutions that deliver on both performance and price.
“This Gold Partner recognition from Siemens validates the depth of our technical capability and the trust we’ve built over decades. It confirms HMK’s position as the trusted, reliable, and knowledgeable face of Siemens motion control in the UK - the go-to partner for drives and motion control that our customers can depend on.”
HMK’s Gold Partner status isn’t just a badge, it’s backed up by the results HMK delivers in the field. Sheppee International, a world leader in glassware handling, has worked with HMK for 15 years.
Sheppee International Managing Director Simon Holmes said: “HMK stand head and shoulders above any other control systems suppliers we’ve worked with - they genuinely deliver on their promises. They don’t just supply products, they understand them inside and out, and they’re committed to helping us get the absolute best from them.”
For OEMs and machine builders considering Siemens motion products, it’s not just about buying products, it’s about choosing a partner who truly understands the technology and the applications it’s used in. Ask your supplier about their experience and how they’ll support you when things don’t go to plan.
HMK combines industry-leading Siemens technology with unmatched motion control expertise, ensuring your machines deliver maximum performance, reliability, and value.
