BMP, a wholly owned subsidiary of multi-national Andrew Industries making printers and photocopiers, has been recognised for its use of Delmia manufacturing engineering software from Dassault Systèmes in developing a revolutionary production process for polyurethane components. The company’s Accrington plant, which is in operation 24/7, specialises in high-grade polyurethane blades for wiping toner from printer and photocopier machines’ transfer drums. Previously, only manual labour was able to cope with the complexity – meaning long set-up times and making production in China attractive.
