At Fletcher Moorland, our roots run deep in Stoke-on-Trent. This year, we’re rallying behind a cause close to our hearts: the Douglas Macmillan Hospice, affectionately known as “Dougie Mac.” For over 50 years, Dougie Mac has provided compassionate care to individuals and families facing life-limiting illnesses across Staffordshire.
Fletcher Moorland were recently approached by Stoke-on-Trent College to support 16 of their HNC General Engineering Apprentices with “Day in Industry” workshops. As an Engineering Company that prides itself on investing in its team, we welcomed the opportunity to support Stoke-on-Trent College with the development of their HNC General Engineering Apprentices.
Fletcher Moorland are proud to support Quarrying & Aggregate industries with engineering maintenance support.
Electro-mechanical and Electronic maintenance is crucial to the success of the quarrying and aggregate industries. These sectors rely on complex machinery, from conveyors and crushers to vibratory feeders and screening systems. Proper maintenance ensures that these vital components operate efficiently, reducing downtime and maximising productivity. In an industry where time is money, preventative machinery health monitoring, can be a life line when even a brief halt in operations can lead to significant losses.
Fulfilment and Distribution Centres are vital to the UK economy, ensuring efficient storage, processing, and delivery of goods. They support e-commerce, retail, supermarkets and manufacturing by streamlining supply chains, reducing costs, and improving delivery times. As hubs for logistics and employment, they enhance the UKs economic resilience and meet growing consumer and business demands.
Our Golf day was an excellent opportunity for team building and to bring together clients, partners, and industry contacts in an informal setting, where relationships could be strengthened outside of the typical office environment.
We have found that spending time on the course can help breakdown boundaries and allow us to better identify with our customers, suppliers and team. Helping to build great working relationships.
Let’s look at what would happen in service if the bearing fit is loose. The electric motor would of course run, but soon afterwards the outer race would move. There would be wear, there would be play, there would be vibration, the driven machinery maybe affected, the electric motor would be coming out again. Equally, if the fit was too tight.
An interesting question that I was asked recently. I’ve heard some OEMs saying that 10-year-old equipment is as old as you should repair.
As far as I’m concerned, as long as you can access the circuitry, there should be no real reason why any age equipment can’t be repaired successfully.
We’ve recognised a growing need to work towards sustainability. It’s an international topic and one the largest global challenges. Among other projects we’ve placed a particularly focus on sustainable parts supply. Many industries operate machinery that may be considered legacy equipment, no longer supported by manufacturer, spares are out of production and the cost to replace is uneconomical.
Wind Turbines are made up of a number of mechanical and electrical components. The operational lifespan of a Turbine is estimated to be on average 20 years, extending to 30 with appropriate scheduled maintenance.
Fletcher Moorland can help to repair, maintain and replace electrical and mechanical components to keep your Turbines operating efficiently. A far more eco-friendly solution to the traditional route of them being scrapped!
