From First-Off Components to Repeat Manufacture

A practical machining route from enquiry review through first-off components and approved repeat production.

  1. Step 1

    Review

    Drawings, samples, materials and manufacturing requirements assessed.

  2. Step 2

    Process Planning

    Machining route, operations, tooling and setups considered.

  3. Step 3

    Prototype or First-Off

    Initial component produced for dimensional, fit or functional evaluation.

  4. Step 4

    Repeat Production

    Approved components moved into batch or scheduled repeat manufacture.

Conventional Machining, Repairs and Modifications

Conventional equipment supports one-off components, repair work, shaft modifications, bushes and spacers, rework and fitment adjustments, refurbishment of suitable mechanical components, and jobs where CNC programming is unnecessary or inefficient.

  • Manual Milling

    One-off machining, slots, faces, holes and workshop modifications.

  • Manual Turning

    Repair shafts, bushes, sleeves and custom cylindrical components.

  • Repairs and Refurbishment

    Machining support for worn, damaged or obsolete components where repair is practical.

  • Custom Machining

    Components manufactured from drawings, samples or specifications.
