Machining

Our machining capabilities encompass:

• a variety of turning and milling capabilities, including 4-axis machining, turning with live tooling, probing, and the use of magnetic fixturing.

• the ability to machine very small parts weighing a few ounces to large parts weighing several tons, including parts as large as 2000mm (80in) wide, and 1500mm (60in) tall 

• experience working with many types of materials including zircaloy, titanium alloys, stainless steel, inconel, armor steel, tool steel, aluminium, brass, plastic, as well as other specialty materials.

• experience working with many forms of raw materials including various types of extrusions, castings, forgings, rolled plate, weldments, and other forms.

• routinely holding tolerances as close as .005mm (.0002in), true positions of .010mm (.0004in) and concentricity of .010mm (.0004in), with wire EDM capabilities of holding tolerances down to .003mm (.0001in)

• deep hole boring up to 40 inches.

• hard turning of material up to 62Rc.

• capable of turning diameters from 4.5mm to 500mm (3/16in to 20in) and lengths up to 3,050mm (120in).

• programmable hydraulic steady rests capable of holding diameters of 35mm to 310mm (1-3/8in to 12-3/16in) with repeatability of .01 mm (.004in).

• the skill of machinists with more than 25 years of experience, combined with a path to empower younger skilled workers in gaining knowledge and experience.
