Services
CNC Milling
Our XYZ VMC 560 CNC milling capabilities deliver high-precision components for industries ranging from motorsport to pharmaceuticals. With capacity for complex geometries and tight tolerances, we support both prototyping and batch production. Our engineers programme in-house using Solidworks and OneCNC software to ensure accuracy from design to finished part.
3D Printing
Utilising a Lutzbot Taz6 printer, we produce functional prototypes and small production runs in plastic materials. This capability supports rapid prototyping workflows and enables cost-effective production of complex components unsuitable for traditional machining methods.
TIG Welding
Our MIG and TIG welding services handle stainless steel, aluminium, and specialist alloys for structural and precision applications. Combined with cutting and shaping capabilities, we deliver complete fabrication solutions for bespoke machinery components and repair work.
Reverse Engineering
We specialise in recreating obsolete parts from physical samples, generating accurate CAD models for CNC production. This service preserves functionality of heritage equipment while enabling modern manufacturing techniques for replacement components.
Prototype Design
From concept sketches to production-ready designs, our CAD capabilities support new product development across industries. We create manufacturing documentation and test prototypes, ensuring designs transition smoothly to full-scale production.
