Services
CNC Machining
Our CNC machining services produce complex components with tight tolerances using modern high-speed equipment. We work with metals including stainless steel, aluminium, and exotic alloys up to 250mm diameter. With in-house programming capabilities and subcontractor partnerships for secondary processes, we deliver complete solutions for prototype and production runs across multiple industries.
CNC Turning
Specialising in CNC turning operations, we create precision cylindrical components from bar stock materials. Our capabilities include complex geometries with multiple tooling operations in a single setup. Using both imperial and metric systems, we produce parts to exacting specifications with surface finishes meeting industry standards for aerospace and defence applications.
Prototyping
We provide rapid prototyping services enabling clients to validate designs before full production. Our engineers collaborate on design for manufacturability while maintaining strict confidentiality. Using production-grade materials and processes, prototypes undergo the same quality checks as final components, ensuring accurate performance testing and validation.
Inspection Services
Our quality assurance processes include dimensional verification using calibrated measurement tools and first-article inspection reports. We maintain traceability throughout production with in-process checks and final inspection before dispatch. All components meet customer specifications with documentation available upon request to support quality compliance requirements for regulated industries.
Subcontractor Coordination
We manage complete manufacturing solutions through our network of approved subcontractors for secondary operations including heat treatment, surface finishing, and precision grinding. This integrated approach ensures consistent quality across all processes while maintaining delivery schedules. Our clients benefit from single-source accountability for complex component packages requiring multiple specialist treatments.
