Manufacturing Timely, Cost Effective Turned Parts

One of our differentiators is our ability to deliver cost effective machining solutions with industry leading turnaround times. We do this by deploying the most appropriate technology to our customer’s requirements:

Low batch size or prototype work with smaller diameters, can be supported through our CNC Lathes
Larger diameter, more complex parts through the use of our Turn Mills
High volume parts with diameters up to 38mm benefit from the ‘lights out’ running of our Sliding Head Technology.
