Dynamic Changes Continue A Pace
01 Nov 2004
For the past 140 years, A Taylor & Son of Leeds has continually modernised and moved forward when so many less well established engineering companies have struggled just to survive. The company has self financed three major expansions in the last 10 years, and the latest developments are the appointment of a new works manager and the installation of a production control system upgrade.
With the support of an exceptional workforce drawn from all over Yorkshire the company continues to provide added value, high quality, medium to heavy fabrications, with supplementary machining, to a diverse and growing customer base.
Tony Rushforth has been appointed as new works manager.
He brings a wealth of fabrication and machining experience gained by serving a wide variety of industries.
As part of its continuous improvement strategy A Taylor is in the process of implementing Redthorn Oracle's PCS5i, which is designed to maximise productivity and customer satisfaction through greater control of information.
Last year, the company opened a new modern 28,000sq. ft facility to specialise in high quality stainless steel fabrication and general machining services. It comprises two large machining bays and a segregated clean stainless bay. The scope of the range of subcontract machining services has been broadened with the recent installation of three new CNC machines: a Hurco CNC machining centre, Mori Seiki CNC lathe, and large 5 axis SHW CNC milling machine.
The Weaver Street factory is devoted to the manufacture of carbon steel fabrications, with capacity up to 50 tonnes single lift, CNC profiling, full scope of NDT and load testing.
