Jones, who has been with CT for more than 20 years, says that “with the divestiture [from Emerson] now completed, the business is ready to deliver on its plans. Nidec has made it clear it is willing to invest, and is following through on its promises”.
The company is planning to take on extra staff to expand its UK operation. “The UK is our home market, we are committed to growth and have identified clear opportunities,” says Jones. “Our flagship drive family, Unidrive M, is designed and manufactured in the UK and is gaining a growing following for its capabilities and performance. We also have important new products on the horizon as we head towards 2018.”
