Precision CNC Machining for Brass Components

As brass machining specialists in Coventry, we focus on high-accuracy CNC operations to produce intricate components, from prototypes to full production runs. Our 3, 4, and 5-axis CNC mills (up to 2m x 2m envelope) and CNC lathes (500mm diameter) achieve tolerances as tight as ±0.01mm, capitalising on brass’s machinability for clean cuts. With crane handling up to 10 tonnes, we manage large-scale machined workpieces with precision.

We work with industry-standard brass grades, including:

C360 (Free-Machining) – Excellent machinability for high-volume CNC parts.
C260 (Cartridge Brass) – Versatile with good machinability for general applications
C464 (Naval Brass) – High strength and saltwater resistance for marine machined parts
C353 (High-Leaded) – For intricate, detailed CNC applications
Custom-Specified Grades – Sourced to meet your exact machining requirements.

We accept client-supplied materials or source from approved UK suppliers.

Supporting Fabrication and Welding for Machined Assemblies

To complement our core machining services, we offer tailored fabrication and welding. Processes like MIG, TIG, CMT, and robotic welding integrate seamlessly with machined parts, maintaining integrity without distortion. All welders are qualified to BS EN ISO 9606-1, with BS EN 3834-2 accreditation for safety-critical assemblies.

Repeatable Precision with Robotic Assistance

For batch production of machined components, our robotic systems ensure consistent results, ideal for repeatable features like threads or grooves in brass parts. Overseen by certified engineers, this boosts efficiency for brass CNC machining specialists projects.

Assembly & Integration of Machined Components

We can integrate machined components into complex assemblies or sub-assemblies, incorporating precise mounting points for hydraulic systems, electronics, or drivetrains—essential for automotive and industrial applications.

Testing & Surface Finishing for Brass Machined Parts

We conduct pressure and leak testing to verify machined enclosures. Additionally, we can also offer surface finishing to enhance performance:

Polishing and Plating: For improved aesthetics and corrosion resistance
Powder Coating and Painting: For durable protection in automotive.
Blasting and Priming: For industrial machined components.

Accredited Quality Systems

Our ISO 9001:2015 certification ensures traceability. We provide weld maps (if applicable), procedures, First Article Inspection Reports (FAIRs), and dimensional reports. Inspections use calibrated Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) for machined precision.

From Prototypes to Production-Ready Brass Machining

Whether it’s a single machined prototype or a full production run, Universal Fabrications in Coventry is your partner for brass CNC machining in the UK, delivering quality, consistency, and control throughout.

FAQs: Brass CNC Machining and Fabrication

Universal is a turnkey manufacturer, supporting customers across multiple industries. We excel in those projects that require specialist machining, welding and assembly. Our customers can utilise our standalone services, or access the full service provision including project support. As a result, we can manufacture projects and production based work, from single components to large batch runs, through to the specialised manufacture of complex projects such as EV Battery enclosures.

As we work from customer drawings we can machine the full range of component sizes to industry leading tolerances. We utilise our extensive machining capability to CNC Mill, CNC Turn and Post Machine. We have a fleet of CNC milling machines up to 5 axis, mill turning capability up to 500mm diameters, and 7 axis sliding head technology for high volume production. Typically we are machining for water, automotive and electrical systems. Manufacturing brass fittings, valves, connectors, terminals, gears and bushings.

We are a specialist subcontract manufacturer, based in the Midlands but supply across the UK. We heavily invest in the latest machinery and technology and serve multiple industries. We are ISO 9001 accredited and have a strong ‘Customer Comes First’ culture.

We machine industry standard brass grades such as C360, C260, C464, C353. Alongside this, we work with Custom-Specified Grades to meet your exact machining requirements.

We’re in Coventry, serving the Midlands and the wider UK.
