The company has recently added to its product offering the ability to manufacture wire rope up to 52mm in diameter. With its fleet of wire rope pressing machines including a 150t press, two 350t presses, a 500t press and a 1000t press, Arbil said it has both the facilities and capacity to produce large orders and turn these around quickly.

Dave Nicholls, Arbil’s general manager said, "Wire rope production has been one of the cores of the business since its establishment in 1963, so investment in both equipment and man hours in this area is always of paramount importance to us. With a customer base spanning the whole of the UK, it is vital for us to be able to keep up with demand and our five recently refurbished presses allow us to do just that.

"As we have a number of staff specialising in wire rope production, we are able to quickly turn around orders and we can make these bespoke to the customer requirements, whether it be unusually sized loops and aluminium ferrule eyes or extremely short or particularly long lengths of rope. All of our wire rope production is to ISO 9001 standard."
