Services
CNC Turning
Our CNC turning services utilise 10 advanced centres to produce high-volume, engineered components with exceptional precision. We maintain quality and efficiency while delivering cost-effective solutions for complex parts. This service supports industries requiring tight tolerances and repeatable accuracy in large-scale production.
5 Axis Milling
Using Hurco 5-axis CNC milling centres, we achieve superior consistency across tighter tolerances with continuous path surface contouring. This technology reduces set-ups and increases material removal rates for complex components. Ideal for aerospace and Formula 1 applications requiring intricate geometries and exact specifications.
Engineering Assembly
We manufacture mechanical and electro-mechanical components to customer specifications, including soldering, riveting, and connector assembly. Our capabilities cover fixture production and precision bench work for diverse industrial applications. This service ensures complete solutions from component design to final assembly.
Quality Control
Our quality control processes include online CMM inspection facilities and CAD-integrated measurement systems. Each machine centre has dedicated gauges and documentation procedures for full traceability. This ensures compliance with ISO 9001 standards across all production stages.
Production Management
We implement Prodman 9000 software aligned with ISO 9000 standards for complete production oversight. This system manages workflows from initial orders through to delivery, ensuring efficiency and quality consistency across all projects.
