Precision Engineering Solutions in Melksham
Established in 1991, Westcut Engineering has grown into a trusted engineering supplier to leading manufacturing companies across the UK. Our journey began as a specialist tool-making manufacturer, and we expanded our capabilities by introducing hydraulic presses in the late 1990s. In 2014, we invested in cutting-edge Sodick SLC600G EDM Wire Erosion Machines and Hurco VMX42Ti 4 Axis machines, supported by Delcam Powershape and Powermill CAD/CAM software. This commitment to modern technology ensures we deliver efficient manufacturing solutions. Our expertise spans precision tooling, wire erosion, and 3D machining, serving industries such as aerospace, pharmaceuticals, and motorsport.We maintain ISO certification, reflecting our dedication to quality and continuous improvement. Our in-house design and manufacturing capabilities allow us to support clients from prototyping to full-scale production. With a skilled technical team and a focus on innovation, we provide tailored solutions to meet diverse engineering challenges. Our reputation for reliability and precision has been built through decades of delivering high-quality components and exceptional service. We remain committed to investing in technology and processes that enhance our customers' competitive advantage.

Services
Sheet Metal Pressings
Our hydraulic presses produce precision sheet metal components up to 900mm x 550mm. We design and manufacture tooling for one-off or repeat orders, with capabilities in piercing, cropping, and blanking. Our flexible approach accommodates tight deadlines while maintaining quality standards.
Wire Erosion & EDM
Using Sodick SLC600G EDM Wire Erosion Machines, we create complex shapes in extremely hard materials with close tolerances. This technology benefits aerospace, pharmaceutical, and motorsport industries where conventional methods fall short, supporting both prototyping and production requirements.
3D Machining
Our Hurco VMX42Ti 4 Axis machines process 3D CAD files directly into milling parameters. This reduces lead times and costs by enabling rapid prototyping for tactile testing and functional validation, avoiding traditional hard tooling investments.
Prototyping
We offer end-to-end prototyping using wire erosion, EDM, and CNC technologies. Our in-house CAD/CAM capabilities allow seamless transition from concept to production, with soft tooling options for cost-effective rapid development cycles.
Tool Maintenance
Our on-site tool room provides comprehensive maintenance, upgrades, and repairs for press and progression tooling. We retain customer tooling on-site and operate a scheduled maintenance regime to ensure production continuity and longevity.
