Continuous
Investment
Aerocomponents
have striven to maintain its competitive
edge through being lean and agile.
This
has been achieved through systematic
investment since 1997 in 10 Hurco CNC
machining centres which has enabled us
to manufacture small to medium batches
of relatively complex components economically,
to high quality and in short lead times.
Long
runs of simple aerospace parts have long
since disappeared overseas, lately to
China, but we find that if quick deliveries
or smaller runs are needed, such orders
normally stay in the UK, and that is
where our flexibility and pricing pays
dividends.
This
is where our family of VMC machines pays
off. The machines lend themselves to
rapid set-up and programming on the shop
floor and because all machine operators
can use them there is never any queuing
of work.
