The
increasingly competitive nature of the aerospace industry and the need for
the manufacturers of rotating machinery to improve efficiency has been responsible
for many of the innovations that we have continued to provide. There is
also an increasing demand for reliable permanent measurement of the torque
and shaft power of installed machinery. This information is required to
prove supplier’s performance guarantees; to monitor the deterioration
in service; and to optimise the operation of sophisticated plant. The mechanical
interfacing of torquemeters with rotating machines can also require detailed
engineering skills and over the years we have built up a broad based platform
of experience in this area. We have designed transmission systems to cover
a torque spectrum ofa million to one at speeds in excess of 150 000 rpm.
Our advanced methods of production and quality control guarantee the highest
standards of precision and product quality.
In 1993 we obtained Quality Accreditation and we hold the following approvals:
* ISO 9001
* BASEFA
* CENELEC
* CSA
Our in house manufacturing capabilities include:
* A modern CNC equipped workshop
* Electronic circuit board assembly and testing
* Extensive assembly, test and calibration facilities for our complete product
range.
Over 70% of our sales are to customers outside the United Kingdom, where
we are supported by a team of 25 highly experienced Agents. Our Headquarters
and Integrated manufacturing facilities are situated in Central England
at Northampton. We also have a subsidiary company based in the United States
with offices in Olean and Houston.
