Easily accessible by the region’s robust motorway network, the layout of this cutting-edge plant has been carefully designed so as to nurture efficient workflows across the company’s broad range of executed processes, underpinning what makes this particular sub-contractor so special. Metal Treatment Sub-Contractor of the Year 2024 - Yorkshire Boasting a plant and machinery of the highest quality, MTE’s equipment and testing facilities are the latest, greatest, and second to none. At the heart of the company’s consistency in this setting is an ongoing continuous improvement programme, which sees these facilities maintained and upgraded where necessary to ensure that they conform to the highest industry standards. The same is true of its staff, a well-trained, highly qualified team with more than 70 years of combined on-site experience in gear manufacturing and heat treatment settings. From this heat treatment and gear cutting to the surface engineering of metal components, MTE’s expert services are provided to customers across a diverse range of sectors, from automotive and heavy automotive through to the marine, energy, and even the precision engineering industries. Regardless of which of these spheres the team here are carrying out a particular project for, they pride themselves on achieving the highest levels of customer satisfaction, something constantly strived for by far exceeding any and all expectations. “Our strength is your performance.” Determined to become a seamless part of a partner company’s supply chain, MTE has a track record of providing a swift response with an undercurrent of robust quality assurance. This can be seen through the company having achieved ISO 9001 and 14001 certification, as well as being assessed on CQI-9, a specific type of heat treatment used across the automotive industry. On the back of its compliance in this setting, the company’s heat treatment services range from carburising to hardening, tempering, stress relieving, annealing, and normalising. This comprehensive range of heat treatment services is made possible thanks to the aforementioned leading equipment that the company has its disposal, including three sealed quench furnaces, six pit furnaces, three tempering furnaces, and three rotary furnaces. Three Gleason press quenches then round out the immense heating capabilities that ultimately give MTE its name. Of course, with a host of additional capacities able to be carried out with similarly impressive equipment, MTE has established itself as a stellar metals all-rounder.

Having refined its processes with help from said equipment, MTE is able to offer its industry-leading services at affordable prices, allowing a customer to increase their capability and improve their products in a sustainable manner. Reliable delivery is another benefit customers can expect, and staff work closely with customers to see workloads and delivery requirements scheduled in such a way that overall lead time can be reduced without sacrificing on quality.
