Boeing has placed an order for portable Orbital Drilling equipment for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner production in North Charleston, South Carolina, USA.

Following earlier successful implementations of portable Orbital Drilling systems on the Boeing 787 production line in North Charleston, Boeing has placed an additional order for portable Orbital Drilling equipment.

“We are glad that also Boeing's 787 factory in South Carolina sees great productivity benefits with using our equipment and has decided to increase the scope. We are looking forward to supporting Boeing South Carolina in the production ramp-up of the 787” says Hans-Petter Andersson, Novator's CEO.

The equipment will be delivered during 2015.
