What separates one industry from another is rarely the machine. A medical component and an automotive component might be turned on the same lathe, to the same tolerance, from the same bar. What differs is the quality system standing behind the part, the paperwork that has to travel with it, and what it costs if it fails in service.
We machine for four broad sectors. Below is what we can do in each — and, just as usefully, where our certifications stop.
Sectors We Work In
Certifications, stated plainly
Certification is usually the first question, so here it is before you have to ask:
Quality System
| ISO 9001:2015 | Certified — certificate no. 39124Q108024R0S, valid to 20 Aug 2027 |
|---|---|
| ISO 13485:2016 | Certified — medical device quality management system, certificate no. 39125M208006R0S, valid to 24 Aug 2028 |
| Certified 13485 scope | Manufacture of hardware turned parts for medical devices (subassemblies) |
| IATF 16949 | Not held — tell us at enquiry stage if your automotive programme requires it |
| AS9100 | Not held — so we do not quote flight-critical aerospace parts |
| Records we can supply | Dimensional report, first article inspection (FAI), material certificate, salt-spray test, hardness test |
What every sector gets
Whatever the industry, the part is machined to the same standard: ±0.01 mm, Ra 1.6 surface finish, material certificates supplied with the shipment, and three-stage inspection — incoming material, in-process patrol, and outgoing inspection — under a quality system audited to ISO 9001:2015.
Volumes range from 5-piece prototypes to production runs of over a million simple turned parts a month, and the machines are ours — so the engineering answer and the commercial answer come from the same place.
