New Product Development
Helping bright ideas get brought to market is a most rewarding part of our business whether this involves the design and launch of a new and innovative product or in the development of manufacturing processes for which wire mesh is a key component or consumable.
.
This might require bespoke weaving in a selected alloy, to a customised combination of aperture and wire diameter, to a non-standard size, or in a combination of all.
.
Woven to order or using material drawn from our extensive stock range, our participation in a project can be as in-depth as required, and early discussions in the development process can yield valuable benefits with respect to selection of potential mesh specifications and associated possibilities and limitations..
In-house weaving allows the manufacture of small volume webs for trials, and an extensive range of finishing processes facilitates small batch sample production for prototyping.
.
We can offer dedicated and customised tooling services to cut the most demanding shapes and meet the tightest tolerances, whether press cut, laser or plasma cut, hand cut and in 2 or 3 dimensions.
We have been key partners in the development of wire mesh for use in the oil and gas market (sand-screen and shaker-screens), and in new energy markets (fuel cells), and look forward to our participation in the next big adventure.
