Rotec Aerospace Limited, a key supplier in the aerospace, automotive, and oil & gas industries, has expanded its production capabilities with the acquisition of an additional SW-20 sliding head lathe. This new equipment has been installed to enhance production at its Evesham facility.

The SW-20 lathe stands out for its exceptional metal cutting performance.

The acquisition of the SW-20 lathe is a strategic step to maintain its competitive edge in the industry, providing customers with high-quality components at increased speed and efficiency.

As Rotec continues to upgrade its facilities, the firm reinforces its position as a leader in precision manufacturing, demonstrating adaptability and proactive growth in response to market demands.
