Vision Engineering opens anodizing facility
The company moved its anodizing facility to a new location in 2022 following the acquisition of Milturn Finishing.
It is now located in Measham, Leicestershire. The location in Leicestershire is advantageous as the Midlands is a key hub for manufacturing, innovation and a skilled workforce in the UK.
The new ISO9001 certified site offers modern new facilities, including 3 x 1.5m anodizing tanks, enabling efficient machining of entire components without the need for disassembly. Larger tanks allow for deeper immersion for consistent anodization. The greater depth allows for full immersion of parts, ensuring consistent coating thickness and quality across the entire surface and reducing handling effort for smaller parts. Batch processing smaller parts becomes more efficient, minimizing processing time and potential damage.
Milturn Finishing's high-capacity crane enables safe and efficient handling of heavy workpieces, improved productivity and throughput, including faster part handling and simultaneous handling of multiple parts, increasing productivity.
