“It’s alive!”

Our machine is finally up and running! We would have shared sooner, but harmonic resonance briefly turned the bar and part into a giant tuning fork.

Ths full run of the WEP panels are now installed. Great work from Alco Engineering (High Bullen, Torrington).

Finishing touches going into this part of the factory.
Always satisfying peeling back the protective film and seeing the WEP logo come through.
Thinking about taking it a step further… should we add LEDs to make them glow?
Thank you to @alcoengineering for this perfect work!

Our new Star SB 16III is finally in place. We have shared a few updates already, but this timelapse shows the moment it all came together
The big win is efficiency. It will run certain jobs much faster which helps us keep costs down and stay competitive.
Always happy to chat if you want to know more

A behind the scenes look at West End Precision. The team is reconfiguring the factory to make room for a new machine. It’s a bit of organized chaos right now, but we can’t wait to show you what’s coming next.

National Engineering Day reminds us how much the world relies on skilled people doing great work.

Small changes, big improvements
Two parts that look the same, but the difference is in the detail. Better machines and tooling now give perfect size and finish in one go. Progress isn’t always big — sometimes it’s measured in microns.

Put it to the team to come up with a caption for this week’s showcase. So what was the winning line? ‘We don’t chase perfection — we manufacture it.’ Hard to argue with that.

These parts are still in the setup stage. A micrometre would show they’re a few microns out of spec, but that’s all part of the process. Even at this stage, the detail is already looking impressive.

Big push in the factory this week!
These parts came off the machine, went straight to inspection, and I managed to grab them for a quick photo before they were rushed off to be packed.
If you have orders that need completing or would like a quote, get in touch. We have capacity and we are ready.

Some things are best kept between us and our customers.
That’s why we filmed this project at a shallow angle, so the logos stay out of view. It’s a small detail, but it’s one way we protect our customers’ privacy while still sharing the great work we’re proud of.

Achieving perfect concentricity in aluminium rings this thin is no small feat
It takes the right setup experience and attention to detail to get it right
This part could be a problem
But our team handled it with confidence and precision
Just another example of how we turn challenge into solid result

If it shines, spins, or fits like a glove—you know where it came from.

There may not be a law requiring us to do hearing tests in the workplace, but we choose to do them anyway.
Because looking after our people is the right thing to do.
Hearing damage often happens gradually, and by the time you notice, it's too late, and the damage is permanent.
