We specialize in the speedy manufacture and delivery of high-quality tooling, molds, fixtures, dies, gages, and a variety of custom parts for complex industrial equipment. If you can draw the parts that you need, our engineers can build them for you using the following equipment (with the corresponding number of units) in our CNC machining facility.

What We Do

CNC, Lathe, Wire EDM, grinding, heat treat, quoting, CMM inspections, state-of-the-art quoting software, locally known and respected expert machinists.

CNC Machining

Our professional tool makers are highly skilled in utilizing the computer numerical control (CNC) method and they put their talents to work on our five custom CNC turning machining centers.

Paperless
Parts Quoting

In cooperation with our new management’s vision of modernization coupled with input from our local NTMA chapter, we have implemented

Paperless Parts: an all-in-one machine shop quoting software that rapidly quotes CNC machining jobs, reduces human errors with manufacturability warnings and streamlines communication with secure, in-context collaboration tools making faster, more accurate quotes the norm.

CMM INSPECTION

CMMs are industrial inspection tools that measure the dimensional accuracy of manufactured goods. A crucial step to monitoring production quality to ensure parts meet design specifications for use in critical applications.
