Our facility near Salisbury combines advanced multi-axis CNC machining, stringent quality control, and a dedicated engineering team experienced in military and aerospace-grade manufacturing. This allows us to deliver high-tolerance defence machining for complex assemblies where accuracy is non-negotiable.
Built for Defence Standards
Defence projects demand absolute confidence in performance, documentation, and repeatability. Our quality management system ensures full inspection at every stage, supported by state-of-the-art CAD/CAM and CNC CMM verification. As an AS9100 defence components manufacturer, we maintain continuous improvement processes aligned with MOD and Tier 1 supplier expectations.
We routinely produce CNC machining for defence applications, including small-batch and volume production of components for:
• Weapons and systems platforms: precision housings, mounts, and fixtures
• Aerospace and UAV assemblies: high-strength aluminium and titanium components
• Electronic and surveillance systems: machined enclosures and connector bodies
• Vehicle and armour systems: steel and alloy sub-assemblies
Our proven record of quality, on-time delivery, and responsive engineering support has made us a preferred choice among defence components manufacturers UK-wide.
Trusted Engineering, Proven Results
From the earliest design review through to production, our engineers work closely with customers to optimise manufacturability, cost efficiency, and performance. This collaborative approach allows us to provide not just components but complete manufacturing solutions – including project management, material sourcing, and finishing services through our network of approved partners.
We understand the operational pressures faced by the defence industry. That is why our end-to-end service is built around flexibility, confidentiality, and rapid turnaround times. When required, we can hold stock or operate to Kanban systems to ensure readiness and continuity of supply.
