Our specialised services
We specialize in high-precision components, our expertise spans high-precision parts, prototypes, quality systems, and technical procedures.
CNC Milling Up to 5 Axis
5-axis CNC milling enables precise, complex shapes with minimal repositioning, improving efficiency, reducing costs, and enhancing surface quality. It's ideal for industries like aerospace and medical, ensuring accuracy, repeatability, and customizable production through advanced software integration.
CNC turning shapes a rotating workpiece with a stationary cutting tool, ideal for creating cylindrical parts like shafts and bushings. Managed by CNC systems, it ensures precision, consistency, and tight tolerances, boosting production speed and efficiency in industries like automotive, aerospace, and medical.
Wire cutting (wire EDM) uses an electrically charged wire to cut hard materials like tool steel and titanium, creating intricate shapes with tight tolerances. Ideal for industries like aerospace and medical, it offers smooth finishes, high precision, and minimal need for additional finishing, even after heat treatment.
Manual milling and turning are traditional machining techniques offering direct control over shaping metal, ideal for custom projects and small-batch production. Though less automated than CNC methods, they provide flexibility and precision for prototyping, repairs, and low-volume, customized production.
Surface grinding refines flat or contoured surfaces using a rotating abrasive wheel, achieving smooth finishes with tight tolerances, ideal for toolmaking. Cylindrical grinding shapes cylindrical components, ensuring precise diameters and finishes, crucial for parts like shafts and spindles in industries like aerospace and automotive.
CAD/CAM facilities combine design and manufacturing technologies to streamline production, with CAD enabling creativity and collaboration, and CAM converting designs into machine-readable instructions. This integration reduces lead times, minimizes errors, and improves efficiency, flexibility, and adaptability, especially for rapid prototyping and low to medium-volume production.
A CO2 laser uses a focused light beam from a gas mixture to cut, engrave, or mark materials, particularly non-metals like wood, acrylic, leather, and fabric. Known for precision, minimal thermal impact, and versatility, it’s ideal for applications in woodworking, signage, textiles, and medical procedures, making it perfect for customization and small-batch production.
A fibre laser marker uses a focused light beam from a fibre-optic source to precisely engrave or mark metals and hard substrates. Ideal for high-volume manufacturing, it creates durable, intricate markings with minimal heat impact and is cost-effective for industries like automotive, aerospace, and electronics.
Our Inspection facility is a temperature controlled environment with 2 CMM’s, 1 Wenzel and 1 Hexagon - 2024 model with rotating head. All the necessary measuring instruments are on site including, grade 0 surface table with 300 & 600 micro height, tri-bores, micro-meters, bore comparators, slip gauges and many more instruments for every eventuality.
We also offer printing, sublimation, embroidery, and custom corporate gifts—perfect for adding a personalized, professional touch to any project or brand.
Printing
We offer various printing options, including premium vinyl, thermal/iron-on transfers, and custom stickers, customized to fit your branding needs. With durable, vibrant prints for both indoor and outdoor use, we help your brand stand out using the latest technology and a focus on quality.
