Heller aims to take cost out of quality at Aero Engineering 2010

Heller's cost-down experience, gained with application engineering solutions, is now helping the world's aerospace manufacturers to achieve major cost savings. It is claimed the company's advanced machine tools are now setting the global standard in aerospace manufacturing cost reductions, by delivering production savings of up to 30 per cent. Heller is meeting the aerospace cost-down challenge with a comprehensive line-up of aerospace related machine tools that deliver rapidly machined parts and a fast return on investment. Heller's speed of manufacturing is not achieved at the expense of quality, the company's advanced in-process monitoring and inspection systems ensure that aerospace components are machined "right-first-time, every time". With local Heller centres situated close to each of the world's aerospace manufacturing clusters, Heller provides a world-wide, 24 hour support, spare parts and distribution system. While locally based experts ensure Heller machines are typically back in service within hours. Heller manufacture a wide range of machining centres at its high-tech UK manufacturing plant, based in Redditch, South of Birmingham. The company's central UK location offers considerable advantages in terms of service, spare parts and engineering support, for both its UK and European customers. Heller UK say that time spent with them on stand 714 at the Aero Engineering Exhibition, will pay major dividends to aerospace manufacturing companies in search of world-class machining efficiency and major cost reductions.
