Capabilities

What we build, machine, weld & press.

From CAD-CAM programming through final inspection and shipping. We machine, weld, and fabricate in-house, and bring in trusted partners for finishing and specialty work - one point of contact for the whole job.

Tolerances & Fits

How parts come together.

A Ø1.000 in shaft-and-hole pair, three ways. Pick a fit class and see the worst-case clearance or interference — the exact numbers we verify on every part.
