Design
The CAD/CAM based design facilities, with internet links, provide a speedy response to new designs, modifications and product/component development.
Turned Parts
The latest CNC bar-fed lathes produce turned parts to high tolerances from a variety of metals and materials.
Assembly
The on-site assembly shop manufactures products and sub-assemblies from its components. Qualified welders and fitters provide us with the capacity to supply a finished product or sub-assembly including electrical, electronic, air and hydraulic installations. Seven dedicated production lines which cover sub-arc, mig, and tig welding. Each line is based on either volume or batched production.
Preparation
In-house facilities are provided for producing the wide range of metal components for the final assembly process- i.e. dished ends, bracketry and plate profiling.
Powder Coating
Our modern powder coating conveyor plant includes a three stage pre-treatment ensuring quality finishes. This well established facility is also offered on a sub-contract basis.
Welding
With seven production lines operate which cover sub-arc, robotic, mig, and tig welding, all are welders are coded and maintain a very high quality in this division.
CNC Plasma Cutting / Profiling
United Engg have recently invested in CNC Plasma cutting 8 metre x 2.5 metre table capacity. This new investment offers the following cutting capacity: Up to 200mm thickness carbon using Hypertherm Power Source To support this new laser cutting machine we have our own off line CAD/CAM programming centre and the capabilities of downloading most laser / plasma cutting drawing no matter what format. This new laser cutting investment has added a new dimension to our already well equipped factory. The plasma Cutting has also helped produce many components that were previously CNC machined, therefore aiding towards reduced component costs and improved delivery times.
Competitive Edge
The workforce are skilled and dedicated and their commitment to continuous improvement provides United Engineering with a clear competitive edge in world marketplaces. UEW products typically combine the very best balance of service, quality, price and performance.
