Extensive use is made of gravity for the feeding of parts to the various stages of manufacture, over 1.5 miles of gravity chutes being -incorporated. An Albiondesigned washing machine cleans the casings and other parts before assembly. All gearboxes arc given a test run before leaving the production line.
