Popular Questions

Please click on the questions below to reveal the answers to the most frequently asked by those new to Westbury.

What type of customers do Westbury work with?

Our services and setup are ideally suited to Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (OEM) machine builders.

Which sectors has Westbury had experience working in?

A control panel / system can be applied to a broad range of applications, so relevant experience in a sector is preferential. After more than 20 years of manufacturing control panels, Westbury have worked in many sectors, including; quarry & mining, security, defence, food & bev, automotive and logistics.

How reliable is a Westbury control panel?

Our fundamental manufacturing objective is that a Westbury control panel must function properly; by offering customers maximum operational efficiency with absolute minimal downtime. To do this every control panel, (large, small or similar) built at Westbury is individually tested and logged. We do not subscribe to the more common practice of random batch testing. As such, our in-house test engineers will test to user requirements, including visual and tightness checks, wiring / schematics and system software / machine simulation. Consequently, our non-conformance records, which also fulfil our ISO compliancy are impressive, like our defence sector customers, where ‘getting it right’ is absolutely critical, the actual NCR’s have been under 1% (2020-23). With that kind of achievement Westbury offers a minimum 12-month warranty on our workmanship. Manufacturer’s warranty would apply to all parts where applicable.

Do Westbury design control systems?

We can collaborate with your engineers to develop and streamline your control panel design for manufacture, understanding that our role is to support you as the machine builder, and your key objectives. Westbury engineers can use their experience to help you to save time and cost by proposing efficient design for manufacture.

Can Westbury build control panels to American & Canadian standards?

Yes we can; after becoming one of the country’s first control panel manufacturers to be qualified as a UL508A listed facility from 2018, to include full design and manufacturing capabilities. In fact, we’ve helped machine builders to significantly increase their market share by expanding overseas in the US and Canada.

Do Westbury use a system to manage their manufacturing processes?

Our current MRP / ERP software allows us to track production from your order through to delivery. This offers customers real time benefits and insight for a full track and trace workflow. To complement this, the Westbury engineering database provides a resource for job records, build and test documentation, and archives.

How does Westbury maintain its competitiveness?

To gain from our semi-automated production setup, repeat business is key – whether you’re a customer wanting 100 or 10 panels built per month. Large scale control panel orders with volume, can also be commercially viable.

What is the best way to approach Westbury to proceed with an enquiry?
