We utilise the latest design software for both CAD & CAM, including Unigraphics NX, AutoCad & Edgecam. This enables us to design, manufacture & commission complex operationional requirements with predictable results.
We manage obsolescence using our combined ERP/Design software systems.
We often do this concurrently with manufacturing and supply chains to cut lead times – frequently from minimal specifications.
Our capabilities embrace all aspects of design: concepts and prototyping; design approval; validation; finite element analysis; CE marking; risk analysis; technical publications and more.
Every day, customers such as Rolls-Royce plc trust our design skills. And benefit from rapid, reliable, high quality solutions…
MANUFACTURE
If processes or materials go into making tools, jigs, fixtures, lifting or manipulation equipment, we’ve probably used them. In-house, we offer extensive precision machining, fabrication and assembly services. Our established supply chain gives us wide-ranging manufacturing capability.

TESTING
Scott Aerospace was initially built on designing, manufacturing and proof-load testing Wessex Water lifting equipment. The latest test equipment means we now proof test in-house and off-site to almost limitless loads.
The majority of our testing is in aerospace, but our skills also transfer readily to sectors like yours – put us to the test…
IN SERVICE
The RAF benefits from our reliable support for OEMs’ in-service maintenance, repair & overhaul (MRO), including tooling asset management. We also give Aircraft on Ground support which often requires us to design and manufacture tooling at very short notice. Working closely with Rolls-Royce, we developed the Propeller Gearbox Removal (On Wing) Care Programme for the Airbus A400M’s TP400 engine. The result? A suite of tools for replacing the gearbox with the engine on the wing – and a 66% cut in maintenance time.
Whatever your industry, our design, manufacture and testing can save you time and money….
MAINTENANCE
We carry out maintenance for the aerospace, utilities and construction industries. Many customers benefit from our full asset-management option, which includes preventative maintenance (PM) analysis. This uses the latest enterprise resource planning systems. With these, we can preserve and restore equipment reliability by replacing worn components before failure. PM also enables us to identify re-design or modification opportunities that improve components’ longevity.
You need tooling and specialist engineering to maintain valuable equipment? We can help…
DISPOSAL
Design, manufacture, and worldwide in-service support is a key part of what we do. But at the end of a long, hard service life, when tooling and other equipment must be disposed of in a safe, secure and environmentally friendly way, we use our decades of military and civilian experience too.
