June 2008 - "But they
were cheap" : We're not often asked by our Customers to inspect and report
on other
suppliers work but this M33 x 3.5 pitch thread, produced by
an ISO Approved Indian Company needed serious investigation. Needless to say
the threads failed our inspection on all of the 120 St St Suspension Shafts that were intended
for a construction site in Finsbury Circus. A prime example
of a cheap price costing a fortune. |

May 2008 - A "Safe Option" ?
Being asked
to make "Safe Handles" does seem to rather drive
home a point.
We have a question:
If you had a long standing, good reputation that relied
on quality and precision would you want to know that your
supplier was not only capable of producing your work but also had the same exacting
standards as you?
Looking
for a Safer option? |

April 2008 - "Tricky to Make?"
'Team' Redline, have long been recognised
for their skills and flexibility in producing "tricky to
make" components. This month was no exception when a Formula
One design and development company, asked us to produce new
suspension components from solid. Delivery was critical and
the parts were thought to be impossible to make..but..it all went well and hopefully
the car will be in the
Turkish Grand Prix in May Official

Jan 2008 - The Qatar Masters Golf PGA Tour
had the benefit of Redline's engineering expertise when we
produced a rugged portable sound unit box for the
competition held at the end of January. Ten units were used
on the rain drenched Doha Golf Club course, 4 for
commentary, whilst the other six where used by walkers who
followed the action around the course capturing the sound
from the tee-off greens up to the final putt-out by the
Australian Adam Scott. Adam stormed in with a 61, his lowest
tournament round to become the only dual winner of the
event. Our client was very
pleased with the units especially the waterproofing!

and enable us to be totally self sufficient to provide
our own blanks instead of the traditional wait of 7 days or
more from our material suppliers. |
