Custom CNC machining

Your drawing.
Your next great part.

Custom metal and plastic components, from a first prototype to repeat production. Start with the details that matter to your design.

  • CNC milling & turning
  • Material & finish review
  • Drawing-based quotations

Find the right process

A clear route from CAD to component.

Choose a starting point. The final process should follow your geometry, material, quantity and inspection requirements.

Fewer unknowns before production

The important details should never be left to guesswork.

A useful quotation is more than a unit price. It brings your drawing, material, surface condition and acceptance criteria into one agreed scope.

  • Will it fit?Identify critical dimensions, datums and mating features early.
  • What is included?Confirm material, finishing, inspection and packaging in the quotation.
  • How will it be checked?Agree on the inspection records and sampling required for your order.

How a project moves forward

Four steps. One shared understanding.

A practical order workflow that keeps the drawing revision, scope and approval points visible.

  1. 01

    Share your design

    Send your CAD file, drawing, quantity and required delivery date. Flag the details that affect function.

  2. 02

    Review the requirements

    Resolve open questions about geometry, material, finish and inspection before confirming a price.

  3. 03

    Approve the scope

    Confirm the drawing revision, quotation and any agreed sample or first-article stage.

  4. 04

    Produce & verify

    Follow the agreed production and inspection plan, then prepare the components for shipment.

Part study / Illustration

A bracket is more than its outer shape.

A mounting bracket may look straightforward. Hole position, flatness, access for cutting tools and coating on mating surfaces can all affect whether it works in the assembly.

Explore how a drawing-led review turns an apparently simple component into a clear machining and inspection brief.

Before you request a quote

Useful answers, before the first email.

What should I include with an enquiry?

A 3D model helps communicate geometry. Include a dimensioned drawing for tolerances, threads, surface requirements and inspection notes, plus the material, quantity and target date. If something is undecided, say so.

Can I ask about a prototype and a repeat order together?

Yes. Include the initial quantity and your expected repeat-order quantity. These may lead to different process, fixture and pricing discussions. Treat future quantities as estimates until confirmed.

Do I need to know the exact manufacturing process?

You can start with the part function and your design files. Explain which dimensions and surfaces matter most. Process suitability and any proposed design changes should be reviewed before an order is agreed.

How should I handle confidential drawings?

Ask about the confidentiality arrangements before sending sensitive files. If your project requires an NDA, request that discussion first and wait for an agreement before sharing the protected information.

Let’s start with your drawing.

Tell us what the part needs to do. Bring the material, quantity and important requirements into the conversation.
