Services
Milling
Our state-of-the-art milling centers produce complex parts with tolerances as tight as 0.0002 inches. Capable of handling parts up to 40 x 84 inches, we utilize 50,000 rpm air spindles and 4th-axis rotary machining for precision aerospace, medical, and industrial components. Advanced CAD/CAM software ensures repeatability and accuracy.
Turning
High-precision turning services for diameters up to 20 inches with live tooling and C-axis capabilities. We machine complex geometries in hardened steels, exotic alloys, and engineered plastics like PEEK and Delrin. Temperature-controlled environments ensure dimensional stability for critical applications.
Wire EDM
Wire EDM capabilities achieve 0.0001-inch tolerances on hardened materials without tooling. Ideal for prototyping and low-volume production of intricate shapes in conductive metals. Eliminates secondary operations through single-setup machining of complex profiles.
TIG Welding
ASME-certified TIG welding for critical joints in stainless steel, aluminum, and exotic alloys. We weld assemblies up to 30 inches tall with flatness tolerances under 0.0008 inches. Post-weld machining ensures dimensional accuracy for structural and pressure-containing components.
Abrasive Waterjet
Precision cutting of materials up to 3 inches thick with 0.005-inch tolerances. Capable of processing hardened steel, composites, and stone without heat-affected zones. Eliminates material stress and distortion compared to laser or plasma cutting methods.
