Having a wide variety of machining centres enables us to use a range of materials. Amongst these, we are able to machine plastics, dense foams and all metals. The most recent prototype to be produced was CNC milled from Aluminium.

Many of our projects are required within a very tight lead-time, and having the combination of machines and the varied skills of our model-makers is hugely beneficial for such tasks. As we are capable of completing a majority of processes on-site, this reduces our need to send work out for sub-contracting, leaving our turnaround times extremely competitive.

We were initially approached to repair and modify a 6 foot toothbrush model. This then developed into us producing a large scale toothpaste model for the same customer.
There were several modifications to be made on the toothbrush model; the location of the switch cluster was to be changed so this was drawn in 3D CAD and directly CNC machined from Ureol model board. An aperture was then cut into the existing model and our modified switch was put in place.

Amongst many of our high-end customers, the most recent project we have worked on has been for Chanel.
In the lead-up to the Christmas period, Chanel required eye-catching models for their window displays at their various outlets. We were supplied the design of the iconic No.5 bottle, to be manufactured to stand at 1.3 metres high.

For the Farnborough Airshow in July this year, we were tasked to manufacture a section of aircraft wing to be displayed by Parker Hannifin Aerospace.
Parker Hannifin are the worlds leading manufacturer of motion and control technologies and systems in the industrial and aerospace markets. As Farnborough Airshow is an iconic exhibition in the aerospace industry, our client required a highly aesthetic and superbly finished model for their display stand.

 Some products require reverse engineering due to CAD data not being available. This means an existing component of the part to be manufactured has to be 3D laser scanned first, in order to create 3D CAD files. Once the 3D cad file has been created we can utilise rapid prototyping techniques to make models which can be checked to validate the laser scan data. Following validation the same data is used to create the part in the production material on either a 3 axis or 5 axis CNC milling machine.

Awards and trophies are often requested as these are usually required as single units or very low quantities. Many consist of a variety of materials in order to achieve the finishes and style the customer has specified.
The business network company LinkedIn required a set of 5 awards, these were produced incorporating both acrylic and aluminium.
An aluminium base was CNC machined and brush anodised to achieve an aesthetic finish. Having the capabilities to machine various materials and a large selection of surface finishes available means we are able to accomplish a range of our clients design specifications.
