Distributor and Assembler of Castors and Wheels

Due to the build of Benchmaster’s workbenches, they have already lasted over 25 years and still going strong today.

Background

Approximately 25 years ago the customer purchased special heavy-duty engineering workbenches from Benchmaster with forward-sloping tote boxes in order to give the assemblers easy access to components. The workbenches are robust and continue to be a valuable part of the assembly process. Early in 2017 the tops had become worn out so were replaced with a galvanised steel over 45mm solid wood top.

Later the customer decided to add lighting above the workbenches to make it easier for the assemblers to see what was being assembled.

The original frames remain robust and are likely to last for many years into the future.

The Result

Due to the build of Benchmaster’s workbenches, they have already lasted over 25 years and still going strong today. All that’s been changed in this time is the worktops having become worn after 25 years of use.

Benchmaster measured the tops and organised for a super heavy-duty top of 2mm galvanised steel over 45mm solid wood to be made and dispatched within the agreed time scale. The manufacturer also required some lighting, so a bolt-on frame was made to accommodate this. The operators now have better light to carry out the assembling. Finally, storage of tools and notices was also an issue, so louvre panels with Lin bins and MDF board were added to the benches.

“It’s amazing to think I was at primary school when the workbenches were first supplied. They will probably still be here when I retire! An excellent product from an excellent company.”
