Services
CNC Milling
Our CNC milling service produces complex components using computer-controlled machining tools. Capable of handling metals, plastics, and composites, we deliver precision-engineered parts for aerospace, telecommunications, and automotive sectors. Our multi-axis machines ensure tight tolerances and superior surface finishes.
CNC Turning
Specialising in CNC turning operations, we manufacture cylindrical components for engine parts, machine tools, and industrial equipment. Our lathes handle materials from steel alloys to specialist plastics, maintaining 0.001mm accuracy for critical applications in harsh environments.
Reverse Engineering
We recreate legacy components without technical drawings using 3D scanning and CAD modelling. This service supports maintenance of obsolete machinery and digital archiving for future production of complex or ancient components.
Heat Treatment
Our heat treatment processes enhance material properties through controlled heating and cooling cycles. This improves hardness, strength, and wear resistance for components used in demanding engineering applications across multiple industries.
Precision Machining
We produce high-precision parts meeting exact specifications for critical systems. Using advanced metrology equipment, we ensure dimensional accuracy within microns for safety-critical components in rail, energy, and marine sectors.
