NEWS & EVENTS
Transvac continues to inspire
Nottingham University students
For the 5th consecutive year, Transvac has
opened its doors to a group of Nottingham
University Students. Each year, students tour
Transvac’s Derbyshire Head office to get a first-
hand look at departments such as technical
sales, process, R&D and manufacturing. It’s a
great opportunity to see how newly-learned
engineering skills can be applied in a UK based
engineering SME.
The tour was conducted by two previous UoN
students (now Transvac employees) and a
student currently on placement. Yet again, the
tour was a great success and Transvac look
forward to welcoming another student group
next year.

Fulton achieves CPD certification
for its new VSRT training course
Fulton is delighted to confirm that its VSRT
Steam Boiler Operation & Maintenance course
has been certified by the CPD Certification
Service as conforming to the continuing
professional development principles. The
news follows the company’s announcement
in late-2018 that it had achieved similar CPD
Certification status, but for its Vertical (J Series)
Steam Boiler Operation & Maintenance course.
Commenting for Fulton, aftercare and business
development manager Jeff Byrne says: “You
could be forgiven for thinking that achieving
certified status for the VSRT course was easy
as we had recently achieved similar for our
vertical steam boiler course. However, given the
radical design of our double-award-winning
VSRT steam boiler and the fact that it was
only launched in early-2018, it took months of
extra assessments to achieve. We are therefore
delighted to have gained certification for the
training course so quickly.”

Dawson Shanahan, the leading specialist
in precision engineering and cold forming,
is continuing to expand its UK production
facilities with the installation of two further
Citizen machines. The L20-VIII and the new
L32-VIII are high precision CNC lathes which
are both flexible and versatile enough to
meet high production demands. Dawson
Shanahan’s long-term commitment to quality
and service is helping to swell its order books
and necessitating investment in new capital
equipment to keep up with global demand
for its products. The Citizen L32-VIII sliding
headstock CNC automatic lathe is a 7-axis
model and was a logical choice for Dawson
Shanahan. With its modular design, up to
30 tools can be mounted at any one time.
Supported by a high level of control features,
the machine can produce phenomenal
work rates, improving both productivity and
profitability.
