Excellent work continues to flow out of Cambridge Precision.


Congratulations
As well as excellent work being produced, a big congratulation goes to Gary Cole for his achievements.

He has completed The Advanced Diploma in Engineering & Technology Level 3 and has won Best Overall Learner of the year.

Well done !


Dan Rodgers an ex-student at Stoke College has been working at Cambridge Precision since he left in 2007 is now about to start his full time apprenticeship this September.


Castings

Cambridge Precision can also now supply castings in its manufacturing capabilities. The foundry has benefitted from significant investment in the last three years.

Cambridge Research and Development continues to grow with an enthusiastic workforce and a new building.


The move started in early April with just an empty building. Just a week into the move, Cambrand invested in new machine tools which were operational within days of delivery.


After many months of hard work the students prepare their car for a race across the outbacks of Australia this October.

The students have been testing the car for the last couple of weeks at Fords test track in Dunton, Essex. They used this opportunity to look for faults that may occur during the race.

Fortunately for them everything works fine and they begin to pack up ready to have the team leave the UK on Saturday 5th September.


The team here at Cambridge Precision wish them the very best of luck and we look forward to hearing how the race is going.
