Over the last years, the company has experienced a great development thus in 2016 it has to expand facilities to respond to the growing demand of its products, both milling machines and accessories (automatic tool changers and static tool magazines).

Fernando Huidobro, general manager of GNC Hypatia since its inception, emphasised the challenge that it has been to start a company from scratch and the difficulties that they have faced over these two decades, especially during the crisis in Spain.
