Services
CNC Milling
Our CNC milling capabilities utilise advanced Hurco machining centres to produce complex geometries with tight tolerances. This subtractive manufacturing process enables precise material removal from aerospace-grade metals and engineering plastics. Ideal for creating prototypes and production components requiring high accuracy and surface finish quality.
CNC Turning
Using Mori Seiki and Doosan lathes, we perform high-precision turning operations for cylindrical components. This process produces rotationally symmetric parts with exacting dimensional accuracy for automotive and industrial applications. Capable of handling titanium, stainless steel, and exotic alloys for demanding engineering requirements.
Gear Cutting
Our gear hobbing capabilities utilise Hurth and Pfauter equipment to produce precision gears for power transmission systems. This specialist process creates accurate tooth profiles in various metals for aerospace, automotive, and industrial machinery applications. Supports spur, helical, and worm gear configurations.
Wire Erosion
Sodick wire erosion machines enable precision cutting of complex shapes in conductive materials. This non-contact process handles hardened metals without compromising material integrity, ideal for tooling, dies, and intricate components requiring fine detail and tight tolerances.
