- Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large machining and grinding cells
- Machine tools
- 25,000 hours per month of machining capacity

As the business continued to expand, in 2017 our second manufacturing site in Cramlington, Northumberland, was established. The site houses a Skoda HCW2 floor boring mill and an extra-large machining cell.
