Arterial UK (Stand B14) says its primary goal is to offer its customers a complete service from initial contact to reliable delivery of the highest quality precision products.
Specialising in the automated production of precision machined components in all major industry sectors and with experience in a wide range of materials, Arterial has invested in a portfolio of equipment that can focus directly on the customer’s requirements, ensuring that the most economical manufacturing solution is achieved. This include five-axis machining centres and multi-axis CNC turning. The company also offers added value through stock management, assembly and all finishing operations such as heat treatment, plating and ultrasonic cleaning.
The company has grown rapidly since it was set up in 2003 in a small garage. It soon moved to a 1,100sq ft factory and, quickly outgrowing this, transferred to bigger premises in July 2004. Capacity was further enhanced by the acquisition of another engineering business in March 2005, increasing manufacturing space to 6,000sq ft. Then in July 2006 Arterial relocated to Sturminster Marshall in Dorset, further increasing manufacturing space to its present size of 10,000sq ft.
Arterial Director David Ross says, “The very best results are achieved when your needs are met in full; co-operative working ensures that we get the best from each other. This philosophy has enabled us to establish successful partnerships in many key industry sectors including aerospace, defence, medical, oil and gas, hydraulics and electronics.
