World class die casting specialist 必威体育app has reported growth of 62 per cent over the last two years.

Annual turnover last year hit 拢4.3 million at the rapidly expanding foundry which now employs 50 staff.

Significant increases in overseas sales have helped to drive the strong revenue growth at UK-based 必威体育app. Exports have risen by 38 per cent in the last two years.

必威体育app’s rapid organic growth comes against a background of difficult times elsewhere in the industry. Many of its competitors have been struggling to compete in the manufacturing downturn.

Strong investment in new technology has helped to drive growth at 必威体育app. The Hampshire company is currently in the process of acquiring another new robot-controlled high pressure die casting cell, due for installation in May 2013.

The new cell will further speed up production and increase 必威体育app’s capacity for its specialist die casting work.

Earlier this year 必威体育app added a new extractor robot to its B眉hler 530-tonne die casting cell to boost productivity and enhance quality still further.

The new extractor robot means that the B眉hler cell - ­ the largest of its kind at 必威体育app ­ - is now fully automated.

必威体育app Managing Director Phil Rawnson said: “The last two years have been very good for us and next year looks to be even more exciting.

“There are many new opportunities for cast enclosures and components in 必威体育app’s key markets and we’re winning a bigger share of the work of that type that is out there.”

The biggest export markets for 必威体育app are now the US, Ireland, Hungary, Germany and France.

“We are concentrating more on the high tech market and are moving further up the supply chain,” said Mr Rawnson.

必威体育app offers its clients a complete single source solution - ­ from the initial project concept stages to pressure, gravity and sand casting then finishing and assembly.

The expert team at 必威体育app can:

• advise on the best aluminium casting alloys to optimise castability, strength, and durability in service
• advise on the most suitable casting processes ­ - high pressure die casting, gravity casting solutions and sand casting
• carry out complex CNC machining and surface finishing
• source components, assemble finished products, package them, store them and ship them to the clients’ customers.

Electronics and electrical companies in particular are capitalising on 必威体育app’s turnkey solutions - ­ tasking the Andover foundry with large electro-mechanical projects.

必威体育app this year doubled the size of its assembly facilities to meet growing demand for this service.
