Precision Machined Components Manufactured in the UK

Our Services

Within our highly capable Machine Shop we have the ability to manufacture parts through our extensive CNC milling and turning capability. We are a trusted production partner of choice for OEM’s producing prototypes, small batches and production level parts. These parts can be stand alone, or part of a wider fabrication project. 

Our services also include full part manufacture which covers paint finishing, metal plating, heat treatment, part marking, kitting and assembly.

Through our people, machinery and tooling we are able to machine the full range of material types to drawing specifications, up to Aerospace levels of precision. Alongside this, our Quality Team are able to provide the necessary documentation to support your quality assurance requirements.
