Titan Manufacturing, based in Weymouth, has announced a major £200,000 investment in new equipment as part of its ongoing expansion under new ownership.
The upgrade includes the installation of a state-of-the-art Randex Compact Vertical Lift, designed to enhance efficiency, precision, and working conditions across the company’s sheet metal, fabrication, and coating operations.
The Randex system enables faster, safer, and more accurate stock handling in a fraction of the space traditionally required. Its rack-and-pinion drive mechanism ensures stable movement and precise positioning, significantly improving workflow and productivity on the factory floor.
This latest investment builds on a period of rapid growth for Titan Manufacturing. The company has expanded into two purpose-built production workshops, added new machinery, and developed a fully integrated, start to finish production process. Clients can now benefit from a complete end to end service, from design and fabrication to coating and finishing, all delivered under one roof.
Alongside technological upgrades, Titan continues to invest in people. The business now employs over 20 staff, including two apprentices, reflecting its commitment to nurturing the next generation of skilled engineers and fabricators.
Titan Manufacturing Managing Director Ryan Hanger comments: “This investment represents our commitment to building Titan Manufacturing into one of the South’s most capable and efficient engineering facilities. Our focus on apprenticeships, staff development, and equipment is all part of our plan to grow sustainably and put Weymouth on the map for high-quality manufacturing.
“The Randex system is a great example – it allows us to increase output and precision while improving safety and working conditions for our team. These are the kind of advancements that will help us continue attracting new clients and delivering to the highest standar
As part of its long-term strategy, Titan is working towards ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) and NADCAP (National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program) accreditations, international standards that recognise excellence in manufacturing processes and quality control. These credentials will open the door to more complex, high-value contracts, particularly within the defence and aerospace sectors.
Specialising in sheet metal fabrication, CNC machining, laser profile cutting, and surface finishing, Titan Manufacturing combines over 25 years of staff experience to deliver precision solutions for clients across the defence, medical, food, and industrial sectors.
This fast-growing, high-tech business continues to drive investment, innovation, and skilled employment in Weymouth and across the wider Dorset area, demonstrating the region’s growing role in the future of British manufacturing.
