Turning:
Four full CNC Turning Centres, one with Live Tooling, are complemented by three manually operated centre lathes.
All machines are of the chucking variety and are suitable for large batches of components and prototypes.
Milling / Jig Boring:
Three Vertical Machining Centres with thermal compensation, including one with a 4th axis rotary table, enable us to jig bore to very high tolerances.
Other Bridgeport machines, although not quite as fast, regularly achieve excellent accuracy on all other manual milling applications.
Gear Shaping:
We currently have five Horizontal Gear Shapers. They allow us to cut internally and externally, both straight and helical gears, ranging from 25mm up to 600mm diameter.
We also offer a cut only service where we cut gears using customers free issue material, or we can supply complete.
Grinding:
We have two Studer CNC Cylindrical Grinders enabling both internal and external grinding with high accuracy and sustained repeatability. Surface Grinding is available too. We also have Manual Grinding Machines.
Quality Control:
Our quality standards are maintained by inspection with a Mitutoyo three axis co-ordinate measuring machine in a temperature controlled environment using the latest COSMOS control software.
NDT:
We have two Johnson & Allen NDT test benches to undertake Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI)
A 1000mm MBU test Bench and a smaller SBU Bench (300mm) ideal for bolts, dowels etc
Stress Relieving:
We can undertake stress relieving of components using our 970 litre volume furnace capable of computer temperature control up to 600°C.
Dynamic Balancing:
We can perform rotational dynamic balancing of components.
