Brown & Holmes is one of the leading designers and manufacturers of bespoke workholding, manual handling and special machines in the UK. Our service is end-to-end and includes conceptualisation, design, manufacture, and installation – be it for new machinery or retrofitted.

Our engineering solutions are designed to consistently improve the quality of our customer’s products and increase productivity, ensuring they remain competitive in a global market.

Our work can involve working with clients to re-engineer components and develop ways to reduce the number of parts in assemblies. It could involve the design and manufacture of hybrid fixtures and work-holding solutions, using a mixture of 3D printing as well as more traditional cutting and precision machining.

The company can also integrate the latest collaborative robots into automation and control systems, to improve productivity and reduce the manpower needed for processes such as the loading or changing of chucks and fixtures.

All services are offered in-house, with calibration and quality monitored against national, international, and client-specified standards. Our design expertise and technical skills set us apart and underpin the company’s strong reputation.
