Services
CNC Milling & Turning
Our CNC milling and turning capabilities produce complex metal components with tight tolerances. Utilizing 5-axis milling and live tooling turning equipment, we create precision parts for aerospace and defense applications. Advanced programming ensures dimensional accuracy and surface finish quality for both prototypes and production runs.
General Machining
Complementing our CNC capabilities with manual machining expertise, we operate Bridgeport mills and Mori Seiki lathes for specialized applications. This hybrid approach allows flexibility for unique projects while maintaining strict quality control standards across all production methods.
Grinding Services
Our comprehensive grinding capabilities include surface, OD, and ID grinding for precision metal finishing. Using Harig, Reid, and Bryant equipment, we achieve tight tolerances on flat surfaces and cylindrical components. This critical post-machining process ensures dimensional accuracy and optimal surface texture.
EDM Wire / Burn
Wire EDM and sinker EDM processes enable production of complex shapes in hardened materials. This non-contact machining method achieves precise cuts in conductive metals without mechanical stress. Ideal for intricate tooling and hardened steel components requiring tight tolerances.
Part Finishing
We provide final finishing processes including deburring, polishing, and coating preparation. These critical steps ensure components meet functional requirements for fit, form, and corrosion resistance. Quality inspection follows all finishing operations to verify compliance with specifications.
