Production-Focused Manufacturing for Aerospace & Defense

Precision Turning

Powered by Doosan Puma SY Series machining technology

Our precision turning capability combines live tooling, Y-axis machining, sub-spindles, and bar-fed automation to efficiently manufacture complex turned components up to 19 inches in diameter and 28 inches in length. By completing multiple operations in a single setup, we improve concentricity, reduce cycle times, and deliver the repeatability required for production aerospace and defense programs.

Highlights

Multi-Tasking Mill/Turn

Powered by Nakamura-Tome JX-250W machining technology

Our multi-tasking machining capability integrates turning, milling, drilling, tapping, and contouring into a single manufacturing platform. Capable of machining components up to 13 inches in diameter and 64 inches in length, this technology reduces work handling, improves geometric accuracy, and increases manufacturing efficiency for complex production components.

Highlights

Horizontal Milling

Powered by Makino a51nx horizontal machining technology

Our horizontal machining capability is optimized for high-production manufacturing of complex prismatic components. Equipped with a 218-tool automatic tool changer, palletized automation capability, and multi-face machining, these systems maximize spindle utilization while delivering exceptional repeatability, process stability, and lights-out manufacturing performance.

Highlights

Simultaneous 5-Axis Milling

Powered by Makino DA500 machining technology

Our simultaneous 5-axis machining capability produces highly complex aerospace and defense components featuring compound angles, intricate contours, deep pockets, and challenging geometries. With the capacity to machine components up to 31.5 inches in diameter and 19.7 inches high, combined with a 311-tool automatic tool changer and automation capability, this platform delivers superior dimensional accuracy, exceptional surface finishes, and efficient production for mission-critical applications.
