About HammerMill.co.uk
Lanway Ltd is celebrating a century of trading. The company was set up by Mr Francis Lane in 1909 to manufacture Coal handling equipment in addition to general mechanical engineering. The company quickly grew due to the importance of the coal industry and was protected throughout both of the wars. In 1946 Mr Lane was joined by his son Francis. At the same time it was incorporated into a limited company, ‘Francis & John S. Lane Limited’ In 1951, the company designed and produced it’s first Lanway Rotary Hammermill, for (amongst many other uses) the size reduction of stone. The very same machine is still in daily use, and subsequently hundreds more machines have been produced. This is in addition to Lanway Sledger Crushers, Impact crushers, Screens & Conveyors. In 1962 Francis & John S. Lane Ltd, became part of the MacMaster Group. In 2000 the company name changed to ‘Lanway Ltd’ and it was re-incorporated to include it’s present set of Directors, Malcolm & Edward MacMaster. In addition to new Lanway equipment, the company offers a full spares and service package for all Lanway machines and manganese steel castings to suit other brands. The employees and Directors of the company would like to thank our customers and suppliers for their support both in the past and in the future.
