The company installed its first system in 1989, having used traditional methods for the first fifty years following its founding in 1939.

“It was a big decision to move to computerised methods as the software alone cost tens of thousands of pounds and the computers and CNC machines were also much more expensive than they are now,” remembered Elkington Brothers’ managing director, James Kelly. “Subsequent years have proved it was the right decision. I’m certain that, if we hadn’t invested in CAD/CAM systems, we wouldn’t be here now.”

Today, Elkington Brothers has seven staff working on the software.
