Sewtec Automation has invested
£150,000 in equipment and enhanced
facilities to support its continuing
growth strategy and ISO 9001 and
ISO 14001 accreditations.

This includes the building of a
climate-controlled inspection lab
with a Faro 3D optical measurement
system that checks dimensions and
tolerances for every component in
Sewtec-designed systems as part of
stringent QC procedures.

Assembly space has been increased
and restructured to provide a
smoother flow of work and to
improve safety. These developments
follow Sewtec’s £0.5m expansion in
2009. The ongoing investment
reflects strong demand for Sewtec’s
special purpose automated equipment
in both established industries, such
as food, confectionery and tobacco,
and developing sectors such as
pharmaceutical and medical devices.
