Macclesfield’s history is rich with varied connections to the political and social history of the country and world. In the Middle Ages, the area was renowned for the quality of its archers, many of whom were at the Battles of Crecy and Agincourt. Their renown was such that local soldiers formed the bodyguards of Edward I and Richard II. The royal connection wasn’t just military, and the area also provided a stud farm for Edward, the Black Prince.
More recently, industrial innovations saw it supporting fashion as the world’s leading centre of finished silk and feeding the masses as the first home of bread maker Hovis.
Macclesfield is currently home to one of AstraZeneca’s largest sites, which is also home to their European packing centre.
Compressed air plays a crucial role in packing, where it is used to create gentle suction that can fill and manipulate packaging precisely. In a sector like pharmaceuticals, using highly filtered air also removes the contamination risk that would come from manual or mechanical packing techniques, making it safer for everyone.
If energy efficiency is essential, we recommend Atlas Copco variable speed drives, which are among the most efficient available. We can also help make your existing compressor more energy efficient. Servicing keeps the compressor running well, but by reviewing your entire system, we can also minimise leaks and pressure loss. We can even install heat recovery systems to reduce the energy lost.
You are legally required to have a written scheme of examination (WSE) to prove that your air compressor is safe. It details your system, as well as records of regular testing. J Ll Leach can help by providing and updating your WSE, giving you the peace of mind that you are meeting all your legal duties.
