Services
CNC Milling
Our CNC milling capabilities handle simple to complex components using advanced techniques for prototype and low-to-medium batch production. With diverse machinery, we achieve tight tolerances and superior surface finishes. Clients benefit from our ability to work with various materials while maintaining dimensional accuracy.
CNC Turning
Utilizing a comprehensive range of CNC lathes, we produce high-quality turned components efficiently. This service supports prototyping and batch production, ensuring consistency and precision. Our expertise caters to industries requiring robust, repeatable machining solutions for cylindrical parts.
Grinding
Surface and cylindrical grinding capabilities deliver fine finishes and high-tolerance dimensions for small-to-medium batches. This process enhances component quality through precision material removal. Industries requiring exacting flatness or roundness specifications rely on our grinding expertise.
Wire Erosion
Wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) creates intricate shapes in challenging materials using precision wire-cutting technology. This non-contact method ensures accuracy for complex geometries. Clients in aerospace and defense sectors benefit from our ability to machine hardened metals without distortion.
Inspection
Advanced inspection facilities, including the AXION 600 CMM, provide detailed dimensional reports for quality assurance. We ensure compliance with ISO 9001:2015 standards through rigorous testing. Clients receive comprehensive documentation to validate component specifications and process traceability.
