Services
CNC Turning
Our CNC turning services utilise advanced lathes with capacities up to 950mm swing, producing complex cylindrical components from metals and plastics. The process ensures tight tolerances and superior surface finishes for industries requiring precision-engineered parts. Our capabilities include multi-axis machining and hollow spindle operations for enhanced versatility.
CNC Milling
We offer comprehensive CNC milling using horizontal and vertical machining centres with 4-axis capabilities. Our Matsuura and Haas equipment handles workpieces up to 2000 x 700mm, enabling complex 3D profiling and high-precision component manufacturing for demanding industrial applications.
CAD Machining
Our CAD/CAM systems support direct import of IGES files and integration with major design platforms. This enables seamless transition from digital models to physical components through automated feature recognition and associative toolpath generation, reducing programming time by up to 40%.
Welding
We provide precision welding services including TIG, MIG, and orbital welding for stainless steel and aluminium components. Our certified welders use thermal dynamics plasma cutting and advanced equipment to produce high-integrity joints for structural and pressure-containing applications.
Fabrication
Our fabrication capabilities include cutting, forming, and assembly of metal components using CNC machining, plasma cutting, and conventional equipment. We handle complete projects from prototype to production, offering value-added services like shot blasting and surface treatment for enhanced component durability.
