Services
EDM Drilling
Electric discharge machining for drilling holes 0.5mm-3mm through hardened materials. Specialised in creating start holes for wire cutting in dies and carbide blanks. Removes broken tools from components with precision. Essential for aerospace and defence industries requiring high-accuracy metalworking solutions.
CNC Milling
Advanced CNC milling for complex component manufacturing. Utilises digital precision for prototyping and production runs. Capable of creating intricate shapes and tight tolerances for mining equipment and industrial machinery. Combines automated efficiency with expert operator oversight for critical applications.
Reverse Engineering
3D analysis and reproduction of existing parts from sample components. Provides material recommendations and design improvements through supplier network collaboration. Specialises in replicating obsolete or damaged parts for continued equipment functionality in agricultural and manufacturing sectors.
Surface Grinding
High-accuracy flat surface finishing using reciprocating and rotary grinding machines. Achieves micrometer-level precision on workpieces up to 650mm dimensions. Critical for manufacturing mating surfaces in pump housings and industrial valves where perfect flatness is essential for operational integrity.
Gear Cutting
Specialised production of spur gears and splined components. Maintains tight tolerances for rotational machinery in mining and agricultural equipment. Combines traditional machining skills with modern measurement tools to ensure perfect meshing and extended component lifespan under heavy operational loads.
