Dowty Coventry Precision

Coventry Precision Ltd. (formerly Coventry Repetition Ltd.) was acquired by the Dowty Group in 1951 and was based at Exhall Works, Nr. Coventry.

Coventry Precision was a sub-contractor to the Dowty Group and in 1969 had 700 employees.

In its machine shops, components for other Dowty companies were manufactured, the Dowty Group was particularly associated with the production of aircraft landing gear, but in the post-war period diversified into marine and mining engineering and other fields.
