Our recent workplace safety improvements and machining process refinements ensure performance without compromise.

1. Aluminum

Aluminum is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and extremely machinable. It’s perfect for industries that prioritize speed and efficiency, such as automotive and aerospace. Its affordability also makes it ideal for prototyping.

2. Stainless Steel

Stainless steel stands out for its strength and resistance to wear and corrosion. It’s the go-to material for medical, marine, and high-stress environments where hygiene and durability are paramount.

3. Brass

Brass offers a high level of machinability with low friction properties. It’s often used in plumbing, electrical components, and precision gears. The material’s excellent aesthetic makes it suitable for decorative parts.

4. Plastics (Delrin, Nylon, PEEK)

Engineering plastics are valued for their chemical resistance, low weight, and noise-dampening qualities. Ideal for medical devices, consumer goods, and test fixtures.

5. Titanium

This high-performance metal has an unmatched strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Titanium is essential in aerospace, defence, and medical implants, though it requires specialized machining processes.
