Foundry parts, turned complete in one operation.
Screws, bushings and guide rods for the foundry industry — held to under a thousandth, inspected by hand, and quoted the same day you send the print.
Turned components for the foundry industry
Most of what leaves this shop goes into foundry equipment. If your part is round, threaded, or has to slide and stay square, it is the kind of work we do every week.
Screws
Threaded components cut and finished complete, including off-centre and cross-drilled features done in the same setup.
Bushings
Bored and turned to fit, with bore and outside diameter held concentric because both are cut without re-fixturing.
Guide rods
Long, straight turned parts where finish and diameter consistency decide whether the assembly moves freely.
Your part
Send a model or a print. If it is outside what we can hold we will say so, rather than quote it and hope.
One lathe that does the work of a lathe and a mill
A sub-spindle hands the part from one side to the other without an operator touching it, so parts that would normally take several operations come off complete. Fewer setups is fewer chances to introduce error.

Programming, machining, inspection and finishing
Everything short of plating happens here. For coatings we use finishers we have already vetted, so you are not doing that work yourself.
Engineering
- Ten years of CAD design and CAM programming
- Blueprint reading, analysis and design optimisation
- Fixture and tooling design for repeatable production
- Rapid prototypes from concept to first article
- 3D resin printing for fitment and design validation
Machining
- Aluminium, steel, stainless, brass and more
- Multi-axis work for tight tolerances and complex geometry
- Surface finish control and analysis
- Bar-fed production for small to medium runs
- Material bought per job — no stock to work around
Inspection

- Precision grinding and polishing
- Media blasting and surface preparation
- Light fabrication, welding and assembly
- Anodising, zinc, black oxide and nitride through vetted partners
Every part is inspected by the person who made it
Quality is never outsourced here. The same person who wrote the program and ran the part measures it before it ships — which is only possible at this size, and is the reason to use a shop this size.
