- This last 6 months Mark has been very busy with work on a mix of projects, including Motorised BBQs, Ice Cream Tubs (Lucky for some!), Hand Railings, Garden and Street Lighting Units, Golf Equipment, Shower Fittings....the list goes on! It is hoped to bring some images and more details of these projects to the News page soon.
- Mark Hesketh was shown on episode 6 of "The Dragon's Den", BBC2 and more recently on "The Big Idea" on Sky One pitching his invention for a multi-blade razor, "I particularly enjoyed the Big Idea, I was able to get over just how the invention works and why it's such a great idea" explained Mark. POSS Ltd has designed and tested a razor that allows the user to swap front to back blades, thereby rejuvenating the razor.
Please read all about the new "Hesketh 4x4" razor on the new web site www.heskethrazor.com
- POSS Ltd has designed and prototyped the telescopic arms for a new football table, the "Opus". The specification demanded use of zero "Stick-slip" dry bearings and consistent action at all times. The bearing housing design acheived this, giving controlled flexibility whilst maintaining bearing alignment. More detail can be viewed at the manufacturer's website ElevenForty Ltd. Take a look.
- POSS Ltd has completed the design work for two sizes of Infra-Red Transmitter to be worn by pet cats and dogs for home entry via a novel new pet door. A challenging design in miniaturisation for watertight plastic capsules containing the electronics.
- POSS Ltd was recently contracted to provide all the supporting technical documentation to a York based company to enable the launch of a new design of self-service Soup Cart, for use in large refectories such as Motorway service stations. This included full Design Specification, Installation and Maintenance manuals. The exercise resulted in some timely design changes to satisfy both safety and performance requirements. First orders for the carts have now been taken.
- Clients often secure patent rights following design projects, as a consequence POSS Ltd has many years experience of draughting the formal drawings for patent applications and is now successfully providing this service to agencies across the UK.
- We have latterly completed the design for manufacture of a Test Rig to BS4790 that is used for assessing the Flame Resistance of Carpets, the first model has now been made and sold by WIRA, a major Leeds based Instrumentation manufacturer for the fabrics Industry . We worked solely from the specification defined by the standard, with all drawings and component supplier details completed within three days.
- The assembly of structural steelwork for the Environmental Engineering Department, Bradford University has been completed from a full set of detail drawings by POSS Ltd. This was completed to time and budget enabling the suppliers to successfully tender for contract.
