We have years of experience of working with demanding and exotic materials. This means that we have the experience to offer you a production machining service that will address material issues at the start in order that problems such as stress, galling, fatigue, burning and surface hardening are all mitigated where relevant. Below is a list of some of the materials that we have programmed into our estimation system as a result of our years of experience.
We have worked with every one of these materials:
Free Issue
We are happy to work with free issue material and have systems to manage the identity of material sources.
Traceability
All material can be made available with certificates of conformability and traceable lot numbers.
