SYITC welcomes precision engineering expert

Story added 20 July 2009.

The precision engineering capabilities of South Yorkshire may be boosted by the appointment of an expert in CNC machining to a post in the region.

According to the Sheffield Telegraph, Philip Downing has joined the South Yorkshire International Trade Centre (SYITC) as its new business development manager following over 20 years in the market for turned and milled parts.

It is hoped that his appointment will allow the region to simplify its access to greater markets overseas while strengthening South Yorkshire's links to the Chamber of Commerce, with a number of precision engineering companies based in the area perhaps being boosted by this news.

Mr Downing's work in the industry has ranged from producing capital equipment for the Formula One market to creating environmental systems for the likes of Coca-Cola.

Last week, it was announced that the University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre has partnered with WARDJet of Ohio to receive advanced waterjet systems in order to complete a contract for Boeing.
