FAQs
Testimonials
“I have been using Stephen and SPM Mechanical Engineering for many years now. Whenever I have a mechanical design requirement, Stephen is the first person I turn to. He is very intuitive and can execute the most demanding of designs with limited information. Some of the design work I ask Stephen to complete would be considered too demanding for many. He always delivers on time and within budget. Long may it continue.”
“We have manufactured and assembled lots of designs that SPM Mechanical Engineering have produced over the years. All designs are provided as manufacturing packs that include all of the files and information needed to successfully complete the project. Very rarely do we need to go back asking for additional information. Stephen’s attention to detail is second to none.”
“Steve at SPM Mechanical Engineering has helped us develop and extend our range of Digital Label Finishing and Converting Machinery alongside the team here at Spartantics. His experience of CO2 laser design and integration alongside his ability to design very complex automated machinery made him the perfect partner. He is incredibly intuitive and seems to understand our design requirements after a few brief conversations.”
