Time & Understanding

As an engineering solutions company, A&M EDM Ltd is always striving to enhance its operations and capabilities to maximise its service to clients in the aerospace, motorsport, automotive, marine, medical, rail, defence and general subcontract sectors. To achieve this, the West Midlands company has invested in technology from 3, 4 and 5-axis machine tools, EDM wire and spark erosion and laser welding through to temperature-controlled metrology department.

When the company wasn’t getting the best out of its machine tools and cutting tools, the company worked with MSC Industrial Supply Co. UK (MSC) to instigate a change of cutting fluid supply, the result was a relationship with the cutting fluid experts at ROCOL. 

Best in Class Heat Shield Technology

Automotive and motorsports heat management specialists Zircotec is launching a new heat shield solution, ZircoFlex® SHIELD which out-performs traditional products in weight, thermal performance and packaging space, depending on the needs of the user, according to a detailed research program carried out by the company.

This revolutionary patented technology comprises a traditional insulation core combined with Zircotec’s proprietary thermal barrier coatings. Whether the need is to improve performance, decrease weight, or save space, ZircoFlex® SHIELD delivers against all these criteria:

Revolutionary Take Off

Carbon ThreeSixty, the advanced composite structure specialist, are leading a new project co-funded by Innovate UK, the UK’s innovation agency, to develop a revolutionary  all composite helicopter wheel

The project started 1st Jan and will run for the next eighteen  months.  The NATEP project is being delivered in partnership with the National Composites Centre, collaborating with Leonardo and ultimately aims to improve performance, safety & full ownership cost. 

All-Composite EV Wheel Moves to Next Phase of Development

ACRIM-Wheel, the world’s first commercially viable, low cost, lightweight, all composite wheel for niche and electric vehicle applications, moves to the next phase of development with the manufacture of fifty wheels by the end of the year.

Additionally, three full vehicle sets are destined for proving on MOTIV®, a unique and versatile autonomous mobility vehicle using Gordon Murray Design’s iStream Superlight® technology, and two sets of world-first overmoulded RTM wheels are headed for qualification testing.
