No room on the shelf? We might have the answer...

Our free positive stockholding service helps manage demand by keeping your products ready and available when you need them.

With two large 2-storey stock rooms, we have the space to hold full pallets through to individual boxes, helping you keep production moving without having to fill your own storage space. πŸ™Œ

Inspection starts long before the final check!

As these turned components move through production, a digital micrometer is used to verify critical dimensions and confirm they're within specification. πŸ‘Œ

In-process measurement allows any variation to be identified before machining continues, helping maintain consistency across the batch and ensuring every component meets the required tolerance before moving to the next stage.

You could say we're a museum for sliding head machinery throughout time.

The BSA 88 single spindle automatics may be older machines, but they’re still in use every day and play an important role in making sure each component is produced on the right machine for its complexity and volume.

Having the cam autos available means we can run high volume, lower complexity parts on the right equipment, while keeping the CNC machines focused on more complex work where they’re best suited.

It’s all about having the right job on the right machine. πŸ‘

No wishing upon a lucky star needed when the SB-20R Type G is on the job. 🌟

With both sliding head 𝙖𝙣𝙙 fixed head capability, it gives us the flexibility to machine different types of work on the same machine, making production planning more efficient without compromising on accuracy.

That means we can respond to changing requirements more easily, keep lead times shorter and continue producing high-precision components with consistent results.

Safe to say it's a star performer on the shop floor!

Oldie but π™œπ™€π™‘π™™π™žπ™š, meet our Brown and Sharpe automatic screw machines.

We still run a few of these in the workshop and, despite their age, they're well suited to repeat turned parts, running batches of components throughout the day.

Most of the work through them is bushes, spacers, pins and studs, which leaves the CNC lathes free for more complex and urgent jobs, helping keep throughput balanced across the shop.

Every machine in the workshop has its place, and these Brown and Sharpe machines have held onto theirs for good reason. πŸ™Œ

Bar-fed and running. πŸ‘

The Multifeed 65 pairs well with the Doosan Lynx 220LY, feeding bar stock into the machine and keeping operator input low throughout longer production runs, so the process can run steadily without interruption.

This continuity frees up time for inspection, setting and programming, while also making it easier to manage multiple machines at once, keeping output consistent and efficient.

Exactly why the Multifeed 65 has a place on the shop floor!

Some people dream of a big house or a fancy car, but in manufacturing it's all about capacity like π™©π™π™žπ™¨. πŸ˜„

With 24 Star Micronics GB sliding head lathes in our Birmingham factory, we're set up to run machining jobs side-by-side, helping reduce delays and keep subcontract work moving with quicker turnarounds.

With the ability to machine up to 38mm diameter, there is always space to take on varied projects and keep production moving through the shop floor.

We are getting our hands dirty setting up the FMB bar feeder for today’s job!

Channel sets changed over, fresh lubricant added and everything set ready for production.

Correct setup at this stage is key for tight-tolerance work - keeping material feeding cleanly, batches consistent and avoiding issues once machining starts.

Bar feeder closed up. Time to get cutting.
