Services
Presswork
Precision presswork manufacturing using 20-250 tonne presses for components across industries. Our ISO 9001-certified processes ensure dimensional accuracy and material integrity. Clients benefit from cost-effective alternatives to laser cutting for medium-to-high volume production.
Toolmaking
In-house toolmaking capabilities for custom press tooling and production dies. Our engineers design and manufacture tools to exact specifications, reducing lead times and ensuring compatibility with client production requirements.
Machining
Comprehensive machining services for complex metal components. Our CNC and conventional machining facilities support prototyping and production runs. Capabilities include turning, milling, and drilling operations for tight-tolerance components.
Fabrication
Sheet metal fabrication and structural assembly solutions. We combine cutting, bending, and welding processes to create bespoke metal structures. Projects range from small enclosures to large industrial components.
Welding
MIG and spot welding services for steel, aluminium, and other metals. Our certified welders meet BS EN ISO 9606-1 standards. Applications include structural frameworks, enclosures, and production components.
