Capabilities
Fabrication, machining and finishing presented around the information technical buyers need to assess a part.
Sheet metal fabrication
Laser cutting, CNC folding and welded assemblies in steel, stainless and aluminium.
- 1.0–10 mm mild steel
- Up to 3,000 mm bed
- MIG, TIG and spot welding
CNC machining
Milling and turning for brackets, housings and fittings, from one-off to batch quantities.
- 3-axis milling
- Bar turning to 65 mm
- Tolerances to ±0.05 mm
Finishing and assembly
Powder coating, passivation and sub-assembly so parts arrive ready to fit.
- Wet and powder coat
- Insert and stud fitting
- Kitted, labelled despatch
