Services
Precision Turning
Our precision turning services utilise advanced alpha CNC lathes and conventional equipment to produce high-tolerance components. With digital readouts and servo turret technology, we ensure accuracy to 0.025mm. Clients benefit from our expertise in creating complex turned parts for industries ranging from pharmaceuticals to automotive, supported by 75 years of engineering heritage.
Sheet Metal Fabrication
Comprehensive fabrication services include stainless steel, aluminium, and mild steel welding using TIG, MIG, and plasma cutting techniques. Our workshop handles large-scale projects up to 5 tons, featuring hydraulic presses and automated saws. This capability enables us to deliver custom enclosures, structural components, and precision-cut sheet metal parts for diverse industrial applications.
Wire Spark Erosion
Specialist wire spark erosion services manufacture complex dies and precision components using Spacatron SM23 equipment. This non-contact machining process achieves tight tolerances in hard metals, ideal for tooling and mould-making applications. Our expertise ensures dimensional accuracy for critical components in demanding industries.
Precision Grinding
Our grinding services deliver ultra-precise surface finishes using Jones & Shipman cylindrical grinders and Delapina honing equipment. Capable of achieving 0.025mm accuracy, we process components for aerospace, medical, and high-precision engineering sectors. This ensures optimal surface integrity for critical mechanical applications.
Bespoke Machinery
Custom machinery design and manufacturing services address unique client challenges. From concept to implementation, we develop tailored solutions like the CTC horse scanner platform and nut oil filtration systems. Our in-house R&D team combines CAD engineering with hands-on prototyping to deliver innovative industrial equipment.
