Machined Components
We manufacture high-precision machined components to exact specifications using advanced CNC and manual equipment. Our capabilities include tolerances to 0.001mm across materials like 6082-T6 aluminium, acetal plastics, phosphor bronze, and titanium. Components are produced with rapid lead times while maintaining rigorous quality standards.
CNC Machining
Our CNC machining services utilise Haas ST10 lathes, Mori Seiki NL2000SY twin-spindle lathes, and VF series mills with 5-axis capabilities. We offer milling, turning, and complex geometry machining with Renishaw probing systems. This ensures dimensional accuracy and surface finish consistency for both prototypes and batch production.
Manual Machining
Complementing CNC capabilities, we provide manual machining using Semco Bridgeport-type mills and Colchester lathes with 14-inch capacity. This allows flexibility for one-off parts, repairs, and components requiring artisanal precision. Our skilled engineers maintain tight tolerances using conventional equipment alongside digital measurement tools.
CAD/CAM Design
We utilise ONE CNC XR8 CAD/CAM software for 3-5 axis milling and turning programming. Multiple workstations enable efficient toolpath creation and simulation. This digital workflow ensures accurate translation of client designs into machined reality while optimising production efficiency and material usage.
Prototyping
Our prototyping service creates functional samples from CAD data or physical samples. Using EDM sparking tools and precision machining, we produce test components for form, fit, and function validation. This supports product development cycles with rapid iteration and material testing across aluminium, plastics, and exotic alloys.
Questions
What materials can you machine?
We work with 6082-T6 aluminium, acetal plastics, phosphor bronze, titanium, and other engineering materials to meet specific project requirements.
Do you handle one-off components?
Yes, our manual machining capabilities and flexible CNC programming allow us to produce single prototypes or small batch runs efficiently.
What precision levels do you achieve?
Our CNC equipment maintains tolerances to 0.001mm using Renishaw probing systems and digital measurement tools for quality assurance.
Can you work from customer designs?
We accept CAD files and technical drawings for direct machining. Our CAD/CAM systems support seamless translation of client specifications into finished components.
What lead times should I expect?
Standard lead times range from 3-10 working days depending on complexity. Urgent requirements can often be accommodated through our flexible production scheduling.
