Flexible manufacturing
23 October 2013
Power resistor manufacturer Cressall Resistors has commissioned a new flexible resistor element manufacturing line for its Dereham factory to help provide the company with a competitive edge.

The new equipment can replicate any of the existing high temperature ranges of resistors quicker and more competitively than the old methods. This allows Cressall to provide an efficient and cost effective replacement service for aftermarket spares.
The new investment will improve response and lead times, and thus help the company deliver products in very tight timeframes. Most of the resistor elements for ongoing projects will now be produced in-house, shortening lead times and minimising dependence on outside suppliers.
