Precision Engineering Services in Hebburn
Bill Quay Precision Engineering was established in 1988 by four former Marconi employees and has been owned since by two apprentices who trained under them. Our foundation in traditional engineering principles, combined with strategic investments in modern CNC machinery, enables us to deliver high-precision components across diverse industries. We specialise in turning, milling, wire erosion, grinding, drilling, fabrication, and tool sharpening services, working with materials ranging from plastics to super alloys. Our commitment to maintaining tight tolerances in both diameter and length ensures consistent quality for one-off components or batch production. We adhere to all relevant industry standards, which has earned us a reputation for reliability and technical excellence.Our team prioritises continuous improvement through training programs that span apprentices to seasoned tradespeople. As an owner-managed business, we combine hands-on expertise with a dedication to meeting deadlines and competitive pricing. Our facilities house advanced equipment, including Nakamura lathes, Bridgeport milling machines, and Fanuc wire erosion systems. This technical capability, paired with decades of accumulated knowledge, allows us to manage projects from prototype design to final delivery. Our repeat customer base reflects our ability to consistently meet the evolving demands of precision engineering markets.

Services
CNC Machining
Our CNC machining services utilise advanced Nakamura lathes and Bridgeport milling machines to produce components with tolerances down to 1mm. We handle complex geometries for industries requiring high-precision engineering solutions. Our capabilities include diameter ranges from 1mm to 500mm and lengths up to 2 metres.
Wire Erosion
Wire erosion services employ Fanuc Robocut technology for precision cutting of conductive materials up to 180mm thick. This non-contact process ensures accurate shaping of complex profiles in hardened metals without compromising structural integrity.
Fabrication
Our fabrication department offers MIG, TIG, and stir welding for various metals. We provide complete fabrication solutions from prototype development to finished assemblies, supporting both one-off components and large production runs.
Tool Sharpening
We offer drill and tool sharpening services for HSS tools up to 1" diameter. This service extends tool life and maintains cutting efficiency, supporting clients' operational cost-effectiveness through precision reconditioning.
Saw Cutting
Our automated saw cutting service handles 6" and 10" diameter materials. This high-speed cutting solution provides accurate dimensioning for raw material preparation prior to machining operations.

Report
Took a sample bracket in to see if they could make a replacement turned it round in a couple of days couldn't tell difference to original and very reasonably priced would recommend to anyone
