Capabilities

Each group below lists the machines and the work they perform.

CNC machining

CNC turning centers and vertical machining centers for turned and milled parts.

CNC machining

Multiple CNC turning centers and CNC vertical machining centers handle turned and milled parts in steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, gray iron, ductile iron and UHMW thermoplastic.

Parts run from 1 oz. to over 200 lbs., and orders from one-off prototypes to production runs of thousands of pieces per year. Repeat orders can be scheduled for just-in-time delivery. When a machined part also needs sawing, welding or a finish, it can be quoted as one job.

Manual machining and sawing

Over 50 conventional machine tools: manual lathes, vertical and horizontal mills, grinders, drills, threaders and tapping machines. They cover secondary operations on CNC parts as well as one-off and small-quantity work.

Automatic horizontal band saws cut bar, rod and tube raw materials to length before machining.

Welding, fabrication, laser cutting and press brake

Laser cutting, a 200-ton CNC press brake and MIG welding take fabricated parts from flat stock to finished weldment: cut the blank, form it on the brake press, weld it into an assembly.

Welds can be certified to AWS D1.1 by independent inspectors when a customer requires it. Laser cutting, welding or fabrication can be quoted on their own or together with machined parts from the same drawing package.

Sub-assembly and finishing

Sub-assembly puts machined, welded and fabricated parts together before they ship, so they reach your line as one component rather than loose pieces.

Heat treating, painting, zinc plating and ceramic coating are offered. Tell us the finish your print calls for when you call, and it goes into the quote with the rest of the work.

Frequently asked quoting and production questions

What should I send for a quote?

Call (706) 937-4128 about the part first. After we talk, email your drawings to [email protected] with the material, quantity and when you need the parts.

Do you do prototypes or production?

Both. Orders run from one-off prototypes to production runs of thousands of pieces per year, so a single prototype part and a repeat production order go through the same shop.

What raw materials do you work with?

Steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, gray iron, ductile iron and UHMW thermoplastic, in plate, rod, tube, sheet, bar, castings and forgings.
