Process

How a heavy component crosses the shop

Machining heavy components is a different discipline from machining small ones. A 3-metre shaft or a 40-tonne housing gets a setup plan before it gets a spindle: how it is supported so its own weight does not distort the datum, in what order features are cut so residual stresses release early rather than after the final pass, and where in the sequence dimensional checks catch drift while there is still material to correct it.

Our engineers review every drawing for manufacturability before quoting. Sometimes that means telling you a ±0.02 mm (±0.0008 in) tolerance on a particular feature will survive transport and temperature swing only if the mating part is match-machined, and sometimes it means telling you a looser tolerance would work and cost less. That conversation at the quote stage is worth more than any machining hour rate.

Duplex, super duplex, titanium, Inconel and Hastelloy are machined with tooling and parameters proven on previous work rather than improvised job by job. Every delivery ships with its dimensional inspection report and material certificates.
