R&D process & capability uncertainties

Our dedicated R&D resources and experience allow us to alleviate aerospace component manufacturing process and capability uncertainties to help you get to market faster. We have advanced equipment and devoted resources ready to assist your design team with manufacturability, from rapid prototyping and validation to full production. We’re here to improve your aeronautical component when others can’t.

Challenging materials

Our experience with over 60 different alloys gives us an edge over our less seasoned competitors without the same in-depth knowledge and diverse proficiencies. Whether stainless steel, titanium, high-temp alloys, copper alloys, precious metals, aluminum, magnesium alloy, tungsten, or another material, we have the tools and skills to tackle the job, no matter how challenging the material.

Complex parts

We repeatedly produce high-precision parts within .00010’’ accuracy using advanced machining techniques rooted in the finer details. Our unsurpassed expertise in this area allows us to manufacture highly complex aeronautic parts, such as those with thin walls or difficult-to-machine features.

Missing tooling drawings or information

No tooling drawings? Missing information? We’re up for the challenge. We can reverse engineer contoured parts and worn dies and tools that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to manufacture without tooling drawings and information.

These are just a few examples of the types of feats we’re accomplishing every day. What mission-critical aerospace component manufacturing challenge can we help you solve? Reach out to our team and tell us more.
