Case Studies

CNC Machining of Large Hydraulic Manifold The client required a large hydraulic manifold to be machined from a block of aluminium 1100 x 600 x 400mm. With the manifold needing to be machined to a high tolerance as a high level of accuracy was required by the client. The client already had the 3D CAD data for the manifold along with the manufacturing drawings. Read More

Electronics Enclosure This case study was from a client who was very specific about the requirements for this electronics enclosure for the exact positional tolerances. It was a challenging job and one we completed to perfection. Read More

High Precision Aerospace Fixture The case study for this job was for an aerospace part that was no longer available to purchase. We had limited information to go on, but once again we finished this job to a very high standard resulting in another happy customer. Read More

Mechanical Prototyping of a Fishing Reel The client for this case study had a new fishing reel concept that they wanted us to manufacturer so they could test it out before taking the design further. As the fishing reel had to be fully functioning we had many areas to design for the client so they could undergo further testing. Read More
