March Newsletter 2026

Written 16th March 2026

Welcome to our March Newsletter.

This month we’re pleased to share two recent developments. We have launched a new page on our website dedicated to Agriculture OEMs, highlighting how we support manufacturers in the sector with tailored solutions and supply chain expertise.

We’re also featuring a recent case study where a fully automated abrasive recovery system was installed to remove a production bottleneck in a customer’s shot blasting process. By eliminating the need for manual media recovery between components, the solution increased throughput from 6–7 components per day to 12 – an 84.6% increase in daily production capacity.

During a routine site visit, a customer highlighted a key challenge in their shot blasting process: operators were required to manually recover abrasive media between components, creating significant downtime. By installing a fully automated recovery system, the need for manual intervention was eliminated, increasing throughput from 6–7 components per day to 12 — an 84.6% improvement in daily production capacity while also saving around 30 minutes of manual labour per component.
