Three into one for AUMA UK Service Operations

As part of a wider project to remodel and streamline AUMA’s UK Head Office in Clevedon, which has also seen the development of a dedicated training and showroom suite and the construction of new offices to bring account management, customer service and technical departments together, AUMA UK has combined three previous workshop spaces into one, making it easier for work to flow through the department and also enhancing employee safety.

Actuators being tested or repaired need to move between different areas within the workshop areas, for example, a refurbished actuator needs to travel from the workbench to the testing and calibration rigs. By removing the walls between the three previous sections of the workshop, AUMA have been able to install a dual gantry crane that can access every area of the workshop, making it easy for one man to safely move a heavy actuator or gearbox anywhere in the area, increasing efficiency and improving workplace safety.
