Services
CNC Turning
Our CNC turning services produce high-precision components using advanced lathes with sub-spindles and driven tooling. Capable of handling bar capacities up to 75mm, we deliver complex geometries for industrial and aerospace applications. This service ensures tight tolerances and repeatability for both prototypes and batch production.
3D Milling
Using CAD/CAM software, we create intricate 3D milled surfaces and pocketing for custom components. Our machining centres handle table sizes up to 1000x600mm, supporting aerospace and defence projects requiring multi-axis precision. This service enables rapid prototyping and production of technically demanding parts.
Toolmaking
We design and manufacture bespoke jigs, fixtures, and production tooling for solder assemblies and calibration equipment. With decades of experience, our toolroom supports electrical, industrial, and commercial sectors by creating durable, high-precision tooling solutions tailored to client specifications.
Prototype Development
From sketches or CAD files, we develop functional prototypes for testing and validation. Our in-house capabilities include CNC engraving, grinding, and TIG welding to produce accurate models. This service accelerates the transition from concept to full-scale production for engineering projects.
Batch Production
We produce precision components in quantities ranging from one-off pieces to large batches. Our facility combines CNC automation with manual expertise to maintain quality across high-volume runs. This service caters to industries requiring consistent, repeatable manufacturing solutions.
