Precision Machining Services in Garvagh
Currie Engineering has been a trusted name in precision engineering for over 30 years. Established in the early 1990s, we began as a jobbing shop serving local industries before evolving into bespoke machine building for electronics and medical sectors. Following market shifts post-9/11, we successfully diversified into sub-contract precision engineering, maintaining our reputation for innovation and quality. Our sustained investment in advanced machinery, including 5-axis milling and CNC turning equipment, ensures we meet the exacting standards of global leaders like Caterpillar and Howden Axial Fans. Certified to ISO 9001:2015, our skilled workforce delivers high-precision components across energy, oil & gas, construction, and electronics sectors.We prioritise customer satisfaction through continuous improvement of our quality management systems and operational processes. Our commitment to excellence extends to sustainable practices, exemplified by our 100kW wind turbine installation in 2010. With modern facilities and decades of technical expertise, we provide cost-effective solutions tailored to both large-scale manufacturers and local businesses. Our portfolio reflects our ability to handle complex, heavy-duty machining tasks up to 8,000mm in scale. Today, Currie Engineering remains a family-owned business dedicated to precision, reliability, and technological advancement.

Services
CNC Turning
Our CNC turning capabilities handle components up to 1,250mm diameter with 0.001mm accuracy. Using advanced Mori Seiki and Doosan lathes, we produce complex shafts and cylindrical parts for oil & gas and energy sectors. This service supports long shaft machining up to 3,000mm length with high-pressure coolant systems ensuring optimal tool life and surface finish.
5-Axis Milling
Our DMU 125 FD and Zayer 30KC machines enable simultaneous 5-axis machining of complex geometries. Capable of handling 2,000kg workpieces and components up to 8,000mm in length, this service delivers precision aerospace and industrial components. The universal pivot head technology ensures accurate 5-sided machining without multiple setups, reducing lead times for intricate parts.
Precision Grinding
We provide cylindrical grinding to 0.001mm tolerances using Buderus and Jones & Shipman equipment. This service handles components up to 1,500mm between centres with advanced honing capabilities for critical sealing surfaces. Our grinding processes meet stringent surface finish requirements for hydraulic and precision engineering applications across multiple industries.
Stress Relieving
Our in-house stress relieving furnaces (1,250 x 1,250 x 1,250mm capacity) eliminate residual stresses in machined components. This service maintains dimensional stability for large fabricated structures and castings using controlled temperature cycles up to 650C. The process ensures long-term component reliability for heavy engineering applications.
Heavy Component Machining
We specialise in machining oversized components up to 8,000mm length and 25,000kg weight. Our Cincinnati FTV and Correa FOX-40 machines handle heavy-duty milling tasks with fixed bed stability. This service supports energy and construction sectors requiring large fabricated structures with tight tolerances maintained across extended workpieces.
