Services
CNC Machining
We provide high-precision CNC machining services using advanced sliding head lathes for complex components. Our capabilities include turning, milling, and drilling operations on materials like stainless steel, brass, and inconel. With ISO 9001:2015 certification, we ensure consistent quality for aerospace, automotive, and medical applications.
Sliding Head Machining
Our sliding head machining services produce intricate parts with tight tolerances using Star SR and SB series machines. This technology enables simultaneous multi-axis operations for efficiency. We handle bar capacities up to 42mm, serving industries requiring precision components for critical applications.
Prototype Manufacturing
We offer prototype manufacturing services for testing and development phases. Our flexible production capabilities allow small batch runs with quick turnaround times. Using the latest programming software, we ensure prototypes meet exact specifications before full-scale production.
High Volume Production
Our facility supports high-volume production runs with automated systems and efficient workflow management. We maintain consistent quality across large batches through rigorous inspection processes. This service caters to industries requiring reliable supply chains for critical components.
Quality Inspection
We employ advanced inspection equipment including the Sylvac-Scan F60 for dimensional accuracy verification. Our quality control processes include 2D/3D scanning and traditional measurement tools. This ensures all components meet ISO 9001:2015 standards before customer delivery.
