We have a well equiped workshop with both conventional machining and CNC machining capabilities. Our machining capacity is listed below:-

Colchester Triumph 2000 lathe 7.5 inch Centre Height, 50 inch Centres
Colchester Mastiff 1400 Lathe 10.5 inch Centre Height, 100 inch Centres
Bridgeport Turret mills
Heckert Horizontal Mill with 1.6M long table
Jones and Shipmen Surface Grinder

Haas VF2 CNC Vertical Machining Centre
Haas MiniMill 2 CNC Vertical Machining Centre
Colchester Tornado 200B CNC Turning Centre

We use Solidworks and Camworks, so can take in customer drawings in most formats and produce all the machining data directly from the 3D models. This improves accuracy and speeds up the production time. We can produce 3D models from paper drawings if required.

Recent projects have included producing custom mounts for prototype machinery and re manufacturing components for the performance car and motrobike markets including the re-machining of brake disks. We also undertake gear cutting and broaching.

We have a limited supply of machine spares, mainly Bridgeport and Colchester, and undertake machine tool repair and refurbishment.

See the products page for details of items supplied to the Railway Signalling Industry. With over 30 years experience in this field. we are ideally placed and understand the requirements of our customers and can supply their exact needs.

Another ongoing project is the construction of a third scale Burrell traction engine. Some photos and details are shown on our Projects Page.

If you require a price for any machined components or assembelies, please contact us and we will be happy to quote. We are happy to undertake machining of your components that are too large for your machines.
