What We Offer

We offer our client partners substantial manufacturing capacity and exceptional expertise for their small mechanical parts manufacturing requirements. We provide them with a manufacturing extension of their business at a fraction of the cost of developing and maintaining their own. While using the latest in advanced manufacturing equipment and methods, we efficiently supply custom designed mechanical components and assemblies that they require for inclusion in product lines and end–use applications. We supply them on–time and exactly to specifications.

Our commitment to employee training, development, and retention has yielded an exceptionally capable and experienced workforce with extremely low turnover. We offer a level of technical expertise rarely found in the job–shop machining industry with degreed Mechanical Engineers on staff with nearly seventy years of combined manufacturing experience.

We have consistently provided over 7000 unique parts to our client partners whom represent original equipment manufacturers as well as end–users from a variety of industries and applications. All expect a quality product, at a reasonable cost, on a rigid production schedule. Many demand rigorous quality inspection and traceability requirements (we are ISO–9001 compliant) and some require strict confidentiality agreements which we honor religiously.

The following summarizes some of the capabilities, equipment, services and support that we commonly provide to our clients. Pick the numbers to scroll:
