1st Class Supplier
Services
CNC Machining
Our advanced CNC machining capabilities include 5-axis and 3-axis systems for complex component manufacturing. With MasterCam CAD/CAM integration, we achieve tolerances within microns for critical engineering applications. Our 1,310m workshop houses horizontal and vertical boring, turning, and milling equipment to handle large-scale projects.
Reverse Engineering
We recreate precision components from physical samples using 3D scanning technology. This service enables replacement of obsolete parts and replication of legacy equipment while maintaining original specifications. Our engineers combine traditional measurement techniques with digital verification for accuracy.
Non-Destructive Testing
We provide comprehensive NDT services including dimensional inspection using Faro Arm technology. Our certified technicians perform material testing and quality assurance checks at multiple production stages. This ensures compliance with industry standards like DNV GL for critical components.
Turn-Key Manufacturing
From initial design to final delivery, we manage entire manufacturing processes. Our purchasing team coordinates material sourcing, coating, welding, and assembly. This integrated approach reduces supply chain complexity for clients in oil and gas, marine, and renewable energy sectors.
On-Site Inspection
Our portable Faro Arm enables 3D inspections at client locations. This service verifies component dimensions and tolerances without requiring parts to be transported to our facility. It supports quality control for large installations in power generation and offshore environments.
