Key Component Manufacturing Capabilities

CNC Milling & Turning

Using multi-axis CNC machining, we create complex components with high accuracy and repeatability. Our machines are equipped with advanced tooling and live monitoring to ensure consistent output.

Composite-Compatible Fixtures & Tooling

Working with carbon fiber and other advanced composites requires specialized tooling. We manufacture jigs and fixtures tailored to composite material lay-ups, vacuum bagging, and autoclave curing.

Precision Drilling, Tapping, and Surface Finishing

Each component goes through secondary processes such as drilling, threading, deburring, and finishing operations. We also offer surface treatments like anodizing, passivation, and painting upon request.

CAD/CAM Integration

Our component manufacturing process is fully digital, from initial CAD design to CAM programming. This ensures seamless transitions from design to production, minimizing error and maximizing throughput.

Materials Expertise

Our team has experience machining and handling a wide range of engineering materials:

• Aerospace-grade Aluminum (6061, 7075)
• Stainless Steel (304, 316, 17-4PH)
