WE NEVER GET 'TYRED' OF JOBS LIKE THIS!

THE PROCEDURE

Tyre Lifting Slings are a piece of Lifting Equipment as I am sure you can imagine, are not readily available from the shelf!  Therefore, manufacturing plays a HUGE part! More specifically in this case UK MANUFACTURING! Bespoke manufacturing in this instance was essential! Slings of this calibre must be manufactured to strict and specific guidelines as they will play a pivotal role within the transportation and movement of such critical components to aircraft. 


After precise and careful measuring, we were set to get the 'wheels in motion' on this project, the first few stages are key here as with any bespoke project- every Millimetre matters! 
Measurements complete! Now manufacturing begins! 

THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Following the completion of measurements, our manufacturers finalise the design and begin collating components and cutting material to ready to tailor. As these Slings have bespoke metal components at each end these are laid out at the intended length required. 


The materials that have been measured and cut out and are laid in the correct place between both terminations to ensure the correct measurements have been made and that there will be no issues once sewing beings.  Happy?! Yes. Now sewing can begin! 


This is one of the most important stages within the manufacturing process as strength within each sling is essential! Any stitches that are missed or do not meet standards can prove costly in more than one instance when it comes to the lift. Therefore, each component is sewn with precision and care to ensure that the final product will be perfect. This reflects our companies commitment to quality through our ISO 9001:2015 certification.

Further quality assurance checks are completed upon the manufacture completion of each sling, carefully searching for any potential defects, stitching queries, material issues or anything that looks out of the ordinary, once complete it is on to testing! 

TEST IT!

These Slings are then put through their paces, with a number of tests from elongation testing to load tests to ensure that every element conforms to the highest standard and that the end product is fit for purpose. It is of paramount importance that there will be no issue for the customer and they can use these slings with complete peace of mind. 
All completed and certified, the goods are carefully packed, wrapped, strapped and organised for shipping to get them on their way.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

As with any job we complete it is of key importance that the customer is happy. We are pleased to report that these slings have proved to be a great success and feedback has been incredibly positive!
