Metals Expertise: W H Tildesley Strengthens Its Team
W H Tildesley forges a range of high spec materials
Nthambe Singo
W H Tildesley has employed an Engineer who will work as an Associate based on site to form a link with the University. The tie up will allow the company to continue to develop its forging expertise and to take on ever more challenging manufacturing projects.
Nthambe Singo graduated from the University of Johannesburg before completing her Dipl-Ing. at Freiberg University, Germany. Her previous posts include time working in Germany for Silbitz Guss and Georg Fischer.
W H Tildesley forges a range of high spec materials, so Nthambe will be working with the likes of Alloy 625, 17-4PH stainless steel , as well as F44 (6Mo) which is one of the steels for which it holds M650 Edition 4 NORSOK approval.
W H Tildesley is partnering with the Advanced Forming Research Centre, so Nthambe will be able to spend time at the University of Strathclyde where any analysis or findings can be validated.
Amongst the company’s goals is to embed additional knowledge of high performance materials in the forging process. Also to strengthen its diagnostic process and ultimately to implement ways to tighten control of its manufacturing variables.
Phil Hobley of W H Tildesley commented: ‘We are constantly looking for ways to add value to our offer to Customers. Within the forging and the valve worlds we see metallurgical expertise and experience as a key factor. The ability to anticipate and solve problems efficiently gives us a distinct advantage over some of our competitors. Whilst we recognise that starting cost will always be one factor when sourcing projects, if we can systematically avoid mistakes and speed up processing, then our Customers will often find that the overall project cost is reduced by partnering with a company like ours.’
