CRP Subsea in Skelmersdale has made a large investment in a new precision engineered manufacturing cell to support its increased manufacturing production demand. The purpose-built cell expands its machining capabilities by introducing a state-of-the art 5-axis CNC machine and a 3-axis turning centre.
The new precision engineered manufacturing cell enables CRP Subsea to efficiently machine a wide range of polymer materials into complex shapes and is suited to the most demanding applications. Having the enhanced capability in-house gives CRP Subsea the agility to easily support innovative ideas and customisation.
