Aaron McGreevy, managing director of McGreevy Engineering said: “This is a key investment for McGreevy Engineering, and as we continue to grow it is imperative that we invest in our people and new equipment. Having been to the Paris Air Show earlier this year and met with some of our current key customers, I view this as the next significant step for our business.
“Quality is such an important aspect in precision engineering and in particular the aerospace sector. We’ve reorganised the factory along with adding some internal structures to tailor the building for the CMM to ensure the right conditions are provided. Our continuing commitment to the quality of output is illustrated by this recent installation. I’m delighted with the end result and that we are up and running and making a significant difference to our customers.”
The company specialises in precision machined components, 5-axis milling and multi axis turn milling.
