Sustainability is at the core of our operations. We are committed to minimising our environmental impact through responsible manufacturing practices. We believe in creating value not only for our clients but also for the planet. Visit our Sustainability page to read all about our initiatives.
We make rapid prototypes early in the process and continue to revise machining operations to ensure that the parts always meet our customers needs.
Our dedicated team of inspectors confirm quality and precision throughout the production process to ensure that every component is exactly as it should be.
This ranges from visual and manual dimensional checking to using our wide range of sophisticated measuring equipment including: Keyence Instant Measuring System, Mitutoyo Crysta Apex coordinate measurement machine, Mitutoyo profile projector, a wide range of Trimos digital height gauges, Nikken tool presetters, Hommel measurement machine and numerous micrometers, vernier calipers etc.
Absolutely. CNC machining is a versatile and precise manufacturing process ideal for both prototyping and small production runs. It allows for rapid production of high-quality parts with excellent accuracy and repeatability. Whether you’re developing a new product or looking to manufacture a limited series of components, our CNC machining services can be tailored to meet your specific needs, ensuring optimal results for projects of any size.
Our dedication and commitment to quality along with our level of accuracy keeps us among the very small band of leading CNC machining businesses. Our components are used globally in a wide range of applications that demand the level of precision that only the best businesses can provide. Additionally, we provide some value-add services, such as kanban arrangements, that help to ensure that our clients can meet their production needs in a timely fashion.
