Olympus Engineering

We are recruiting! As a result of many new complex parts we need a dayshift CAD-CAM programmer / manufacturing engineer required to work in our busy CAD office. Email WendyJ@olympusengineering.co.uk or message us on here! No agencies please.

Did you know…..Olympus designs and manufactures its own carbide cutting tools in house. Reducing lead time to days from weeks or months for tooling means we can prototype parts with production tooling to get your parts to your customer quicker, after that we are set-up to hit production for you the very next day!

And then 5 was 6! We have recently increased our 5 axis capacity by upgrading our new Matsuura MAM72-63V to a 6 multipallet - this takes our 5 axis capacity to 26 pallets! Coupled with the multi pallet horizontals we have surpassed the 200 available pallets! #olympusengineering #madeinuk #matsuura Thomas Pedley Michal Jaworski William Mitchell Gavin Munro Christopher Forrester

Happy Christmas Jumper day 2024 - the team at Olympus are donating £750 to Dougie Mac Hospice.

We don't make anything anymore? The UK's booming aerospace industry, which now employs more than 104,000 people, contributed over £30 billion to the economy last year. This figure is set to rise significantly after deals worth a staggering £13 BILLION to the UK were announced at the recent Farnborough International Airshow. As a whole, the UK's manufacturing sector contributed £217 billion to the economy last year, invested £38.8 billion, and supported 2.6 million jobs. Surely it's time to support, promote, and celebrate our brilliant manufacturing sector?
