Manufacturing investment
06 October 2016
To cater for the increased order intake achieved by UPM Conveyors during the past six months, significant investment has been made in additional manufacturing equipment.
Owner Roy Fowler, who has worked in the manufacturing industry for over 40 years, has purchased a smaller router to allow the existing 3m x 2m router to machine conveyor main side frames, plus a new lathe, as well as a new vertical milling machine and pillar drill.
The increase in demand has also resulted in a recent employment drive by the company, with more engineering personnel now employed at the Sussex site.
