Activists hope the camp will kickstart a grassroots campaign of direct action to disrupt production at the factory.
The camp is now underway with about 25 people gathering on the Sunday afternoon.
Previous actions against EDO include a blockade of the factory where protesters erected metal fencing on the access road to the industrial estate preventing employees from getting to work.
David Jones, Managing Director of EDO/MBM reported that the disruption to the company cost £17 000. Every penny lost by the company compromises their ability to supply goods which have contributed to the 13, 336 civilian casualties since the US/UK invasion of Iraq.
