Services
CNC Inspection
Our inspection department utilises CNC coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), laser scanners, and advanced software to verify dimensional accuracy. We ensure compliance with international standards through automated reporting and traceability systems. This service guarantees component precision for critical applications in regulated industries.
CNC Milling
We operate 4/5-axis CNC milling machines with Renishaw probing and laser tool measurement for complex geometries. Our HAAS and Matsuura equipment achieves tight tolerances in materials for aerospace and medical sectors, supporting both prototyping and batch production.
KERN Ultra Precision
The KERN Pyramid Nano system delivers 0.3 micron accuracy using hydrostatic guideways and 42,000rpm spindles. This technology enables production of precision components for optics, metering systems, and high-tech laboratory equipment with exceptional surface finishes.
Ultrasonic Wash System
Our automated Turbex ultrasonic cleaning system removes contaminants from precision parts. This multi-tank facility ensures pharmaceutical and metrology components meet strict cleanliness standards before final inspection and delivery.
CAD CAM 3D Print
We convert client CAD models into physical prototypes using PolyJet 3D printing with 16-micron resolution. This supports design validation and fixture creation, integrated with Siemens NX and HyperMill software for seamless transition to CNC production.
