As a former employee of the NCB, I seem to remember there was a Dowty Meco (presumably Dowty Mining Equipment Company). I do not know if this was a subsidiary (i.e. a limited company in its own right) or just a division.

I was involved in procurement of Hydraulic Props and Dowty were one of our suppliers. They must have supplied other mining equipment, but offhand, I don't know what.

I am not including any of this in the main article as it is a bit memory subjective, but if anyone can add further to this we can add to the article a more informed comment.
