Here at Brimmond we’re proud to have chalked up more than a few milestones in our near 30-year history. The latest one is particularly special, not least because it’s testament to our whole team’s dedication to engineering excellence, but also because it marks a career first for one member of our team.
Our Graduate Project Engineer, Laura Grant, co-ordinated the design, manufacture and commissioning of the 300th Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) to leave our workshop.
“Delivering this milestone HPU was a brilliant opportunity for me to run the project from start to finish for the first time,” said Laura. “From discussing the requirements with the client, to designing the unit based on our popular 45kW unit design, and being involved with the fabrication and final build, I was conscious of my responsibility to maintain Brimmond’s reputation for engineering of the highest quality, attention to detail and ultimately customer satisfaction. I found the client witness testing particularly rewarding – we all felt a huge sense of achievement to have produced this exceptional piece of equipment, and our clients were delighted.”
Managing Director Tom Murdoch added:
“Having manufactured 300 HPUs in-house over the last 30 years is a huge accomplishment, and something that our whole team should be proud of. Of course in this instance it is extra special – well done to Laura for her hard work and dedication in the first project she has led on!”
Brimmond offer HPUs as a standard or designed and built to unique business requirements. With power ranges from 18kW to 2MW, our HPUs are either diesel, electric and pneumatically powered units which can be permanently installed or transportable. Pressure ranges from 50 Bar to 420 Bar, with flow ranging from 25lpm to 4000lpm.
From initial concept through to design and manufacture we engineer equipment that is class-leading: we build tech of the highest quality to withstand the harshest of environments, where safety and usability are paramount.
