Defence6061-T6 Aluminium0.01 mm on critical features

Precision aluminium housings for electronic assemblies

Challenge

Small batches of aluminium housings machined from solid billet, with material certificates supplied so every part traces back to its source.

Approach

4 axis CNC milling from solid billet, inspection of critical bores during machining, anodising through an outside finisher and serialised packing.

Outcome

Critical features are inspected against the drawing before the parts leave the workshop.

CNC Machining

Aerospace316 Stainless, Grade 5 Titanium0.02 mm on shaft diameters

Turned components for ground support equipment

Challenge

Repeat batches of stainless and titanium turned parts with tight diametral tolerances and consistent surface finish.

Approach

CNC turning with live tooling for cross holes and flats, dedicated work holding for batch consistency and full dimensional reporting.

Outcome

Repeat batches are produced from the same setup records, so dimensions and finish stay consistent from one order to the next.

CNC Machining

Medical DevicesPEEK, 6061 Aluminium0.025 mm

Prototype iterations for a precision device housing

Challenge

A precision housing needed to move through several prototype revisions before committing to production tooling.

Approach

CNC machined prototypes in PEEK and aluminium, with design for manufacture feedback given at each revision.

Outcome

Each revision is machined and inspected the same way, so the design can be compared revision to revision on measured results.

Prototyping CNC Machining

MiningMild Steel Plate, Abrasion Resistant PlateFabrication to drawing

Wear plates and fabricated brackets for site equipment

Challenge

Replacement of imported wear plates and brackets with locally manufactured equivalents to shorten lead times.

Approach

Fibre laser cutting of plate on our 6 kW Bystronic DNE fibre laser, with welded sub assemblies finished in house.

Outcome

Replacement parts are cut and fabricated locally, which removes the sea freight wait that comes with imported equivalents.

Laser Cutting Metal Fabrication

Food Processing304 Stainless SteelFabrication to drawing

304 stainless guards and frames for processing line

Challenge

Guards and frames for a processing line, designed in 304 stainless so they wash down clean.

Approach

Laser cut blanks, brake press forming and TIG welded frames finished to a hygienic standard, supplied with installation hardware.

Outcome

Frames are supplied ready to fit with installation hardware, so installation can be planned around production.
