Attewell passes quality milestoneKeywords: Attewell, Boeing

Attewell Limited, a Hampson Industries plc company, reports that it has notched up 12 months with The Boeing Company of the USA in providing peelable shims and spacers without a hitch. Well over 150,000 parts with a total stock value of £200,000 have been delivered on-time and no rejects have been made.

Peelable shims are used extensively in aircraft manufacture to close up small spaces between complex fabricated parts. Using foil materials typically 0.05mm thick, Attewell has perfected a process of bonding multiple layers together to produce a range of standard sheet materials in steel, brass, aluminium alloy and polyamide film.
