Services
Laser Profiling
Our Bystronic laser cutter handles sheet sizes up to 3m x 1.5m, offering precision cuts in stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminium. This technology ensures rapid turnaround and exceptional accuracy for complex designs. Clients benefit from cost-effective, high-quality components tailored to exact specifications.
CNC Brake Press
With a 180-tonne CNC brake press, we achieve precise sheet metal forming for diverse industrial applications. Our advanced control technology guarantees repeatability and accuracy across materials 0.5mm20mm thick. Custom tooling ensures flexibility for intricate design requirements.
Welding and Fabrication
Specialising in TIG, MIG, and ARC welding, we deliver high-quality joins for stainless steel, aluminium, and exotic alloys. In-house fixtures ensure consistent results for projects of all scales. Our team's expertise guarantees industry-approved finishes meeting exacting standards.
Grinding and Polishing
Our skilled technicians provide fine satin, mirror, and bead-blasted finishes using traditional methods. With over 60 years of combined experience, we ensure surfaces meet both aesthetic and functional requirements. Electro-polishing and passivation enhance corrosion resistance for critical applications.
CAD/CAM Design
We convert client sketches into precise DXF files using the latest CAD software. This enables accurate flat pattern development for complex components. Our digital workflow streamlines production from design to final fabrication, reducing lead times and minimising errors.
