Overview

Since 1987

Year founded

The company has been operational since its establishment in 1987, contributing to its extensive experience in engineering solutions.

1990's partnerships

Client loyalty

longstanding client partnerships dating back to the early 1990s highlight the company's commitment to building trust and delivering value over the decades.

Rooted in industrial automation, the team engineers everything from simple jigs to fully automated assembly lines tailored to client needs.
Projects span sectors like defence, aviation, automotive, medical and PCB manufacture, showcasing versatility and technical depth.
Typical assignments include heat-staking machines, robot pick-and-place systems, laser marking stations and complex QC inspection rigs.
Each project blends precision mechanics, electronics and sometimes vision systems to enhance efficiency and accuracy.
Operating out of its Hampshire base, the company serves a wide geographic footprint across the south coast of England.
A standout factor is their ability to handle corrosive fluids, clean-room standards and non-sparking tools for defence or medical environments.
