Thanks to the Industrial Revolution, the production and even design of nearly every product that companies use throughout the world moves at high speed. During the 20th century, most companies considered manufacturing as being an ‘all or nothing approach.’ In other words, creating new products (manufacturing) was a complicated process that required the proper designs and ultimately the right moulds that would be used in their manufacture. It was often too costly to create moulds and products for anything less than large orders.

Today, the global population has moved beyond seven billion and even though there are more people than ever, there is also a growing need for products to be manufactured on a smaller scale. We are PRV Engineering are often called upon to create these small scale or even jobs where we manufacture one off parts.

Throughout Great Britain, and actually around the world, governments –both national and localised- have been seeking out signs of economic recovery and growth. Investors and legislators have been carefully watching all economic reports and indicators, interpreting data and attempting to provide assistance to companies and industries that show signs of strength. Thanks to PRV Engineering in New Inn, there are signs that manufacturing and engineering in the country are beginning to expand.

Even though copper is the most popular choice for use in busbars, and used very often in other electrical applications because it is more resistant to rust and corrosion than other metals, this doesn’t mean that it won’t oxidize over time.

When metals oxidize, the resistance in the conductive metal will increase, requiring more power to be used to carry current along the surface. When the copper oxidizes beyond a certain point, the metal can begin to flake and fall apart.

Manufacturing products for what is considered ‘normal,’ or everyday environments has become so commonplace that it can be all too easy to forget that there needs to be a number of considerations for manufacturing products that will be subjected to ‘harsh’ environments.

The specifications and the approach to manufacturing under these harsh conditions must be different. The components that are used, the metals, and other considerations are very often different when working on products that will be used in these harsher, more challenging environments.

In the modern of age of technology and innovation, it might seem as though there is no real need to offer any more inspiration than what currently exists naturally all around us. Yet in reality, when different groups are all chasing the same goals fierce competition can result.  This can be considered a positive factor but it can also lead to missteps and a stagnant footing for some. This can hamper innovation and the creative mind.

When the country is looking for any signs of economic growth and stability, during the past few years those signs have been meagre, to say the least. Today, though, PRV Engineering has announced that due to considerable growth during the past two years that we will be expanding its capacities and operations, with the intent of creating up to thirty new jobs over the next few years.

For many years, copper has been used in the manufacturing of busbars, yet not everyone truly understands the reasons behind this. There are other conductive materials that are more efficient when it comes to conducting electricity, so why rely on copper? In a time when copper prices are climbing higher every month, it would appear to be wiser to perhaps choose a different conductive material for busbars.

Why Continue to use Copper?

Perhaps the first and most important reason why copper is used in the manufacture of busbars is because it is resistant to oxidation. This means that no matter what level of moisture in the atmosphere or the kind of weather that is experienced, copper will not break down or oxidize.

The Queen’s Award for Innovation, along with other Queen’s awards, is granted every year on the Queen’s birthday. It is a celebration of the best that the United Kingdom’s citizens, engineers, and minds has to offer.

This year the award for innovation was granted to Simpleware from Exeter. This great honour was bestowed upon Simpleware for the software that it created that converts 3-dimensional images into computer models, which can then be used for engineering purposes.

As an engineering challenge, the Crossrail is one of the finest examples of the need for not only highly skilled and well trained engineers in Great Britain, but it also highlights the need to remain focused on the education and training of future engineers. Even though the Crossrail is perhaps the most challenging task of its kind to date, in the future there will be other challenge that will likely be greater.

Who will head that project and ensure that it works out without an issue within the confines of the existing systems and networks in place?
