Commenting on the new positions, David Spencer, spindle facility manager, says: “The appointment of these experienced engineers to our spindle department is key to continuing to offer excellent response times and exceed our customers’ expectations. Building work has already begun to extend the floorspace of the department, further enhancing this advanced facility.”
