Two leading engineering companies are celebrating the best of
British manufacturing as they mark 10 years of working together
this month.
Majorfax, the UK provider of machined and finished castings has
been supplying castings to Luton-based SKF, the leading global
supplier of railway solutions, rolling bearing, seals, mechatronics
and lubrications systems, since 2001.
As a result of their 10 year relationship the companies have
provided a selected network of UK foundries with continued business
in the manufacture of housings, front and end covers and axle box
rear covers made from SG iron.
To celebrate a decade of working together, Majorfax presented a
cake to the manufacturing firm at their Sundon Park Road
premises.
Steve Cooper, managing director for Majorfax said: "We have
developed a great working relationship with SKF over the last 10
years and all of the castings that we produce for them are machined
and finished right here in the UK.
"We have a long history of working with the rail industry and
our partnership with SKF has given us a great opportunity to
strengthen our links within this sector, while also providing
continued work for UK foundries."
