Precision Engineering
We
offer a range of complementary precision engineering
services as detailed below.
Conventional Milling
We
operate 3 Bridgeport BRJ vertical turret mills
ideal for light materials such as aluminium,
copper and brass as well as specialist machining
requirements. Most of our conventional milling
is to meet internal requirements for jigs and
fixtures.
The
conventional mills offer open faced machining
beds suited to oversized components that might
not fit in the machine centre cabinets or are
otherwise awkward to machine.
Jig Boring
Because
single point tools offer greater accuracy on
larger bores we maintain two vertical jig borers
for precision work. Our boring traverse capacity
is upto 400mm (x), 300mm (y) and 600mm (z) and
are ideal for machining precision shafts.
Electro Discharge Machining
We
offer CNC spark erosion upto 18" (x), 13" (y)
and 6" (z). Spark erosion is ideal for toolmaking
and machining of hardened materials.
Grinding
Our
surface grinding section is equipped with 3 Jones
& Shipman machines with upto 457mm X
152mm reciprocating
tables and are suited to finishing hardened materials.
We have a full range of silicon carbide, aluminium
oxide, diamond and CBN wheels and can also undertake
lapping and superfinishing.
