Services
CNC Milling
Our CNC milling service offers multi-axis machining for complex components. Using advanced 3, 4, and 5-axis equipment, we produce precision parts from materials like aluminium, stainless steel, and exotic alloys. Ideal for batch runs from 10 to thousands, ensuring timely delivery to exact specifications.
CNC Turning
CNC turning with live tooling delivers high-quality turned parts. Utilising Doosan, Mori-Seiki, and Leadwell lathes, we handle small to large components across industries like defence, automotive, and aerospace. Materials include carbon steels, stainless steels, and specialist alloys for critical applications.
Jig Boring
Jig boring services achieve tight tolerances for prototype and batch production. Our machining centres ensure dimensional accuracy for components requiring exacting specifications, supporting industries with critical alignment and fitment requirements.
Surface Grinding
Surface grinding provides smooth finishes on flat components. Complementing CNC machining, this service ensures dimensional accuracy and superior surface quality for parts requiring precision contact surfaces or aesthetic finishes.
Welding
MIG and TIG welding services meet ASME IX standards for carbon steels, stainless steels, and exotic alloys. Our welders handle complex projects from small components to large industrial parts, ensuring structural integrity and compliance with industry codes.
