The Importance of the Right Machinery in Precision Engineering
When businesses require precision machined components, the quality of the finished product depends on much more than the skill of the engineer. The machinery used throughout the manufacturing process plays a vital role in achieving the accuracy, consistency and efficiency that modern industries demand.
At Ashgarth Engineering, we understand the importance of investing in advanced machinery. With more than 30 years of experience in subcontract engineering, we provide high volume precision machined components for customers across a range of industries. Our extensive machine capacity allows us to manufacture complex components efficiently while maintaining the high standards our customers expect.
Advanced Machinery for Precision Components
Different components require different machining techniques. Having access to a broad range of CNC machinery allows us to select the most appropriate equipment for each project rather than relying on a single manufacturing process.
Our machine shop includes CNC milling and CNC turning equipment, giving us the flexibility to manufacture a wide variety of precision components. Our milling capabilities include Doosan DNM 5700 and DNM 6700 machines, a UMC 500 5-axis milling machine, a Matsuura H.Plus 300 and three Haas Mini Mills.
Our CNC turning capabilities include Doosan Lynx, Puma and GT machines, alongside additional turning equipment designed to handle different component requirements.
This range of machinery allows us to adapt our manufacturing approach depending on the size, complexity and volume of the components required.
The Benefits of CNC Milling and Turning
CNC machining provides an exceptional level of control throughout the manufacturing process. Once a component has been programmed, the machinery can repeatedly produce parts to the same specifications, helping to maintain consistency across larger production runs.
For businesses ordering high volumes of precision components, this consistency is particularly important. Components need to fit together correctly and perform as intended, regardless of whether they are produced at the beginning or end of a production run.
Our combination of CNC milling and turning allows us to manufacture components with a range of geometries and features. More complex requirements can also be supported by our 5-axis milling capability, providing greater flexibility when machining intricate components.
Supporting High Volume Production
At Ashgarth Engineering, we specialise in the supply of high volume precision machined components. This means our manufacturing capabilities are designed not only around producing accurate individual parts, but also around delivering consistency across substantial production requirements.
Having multiple machines available provides additional flexibility and capacity. It allows us to manage production requirements effectively while helping customers maintain their own manufacturing schedules.
For businesses operating in demanding sectors, dependable supply is just as important as component quality. Our aim is to provide a reliable service, with short lead times and full documentation alongside the finished products.
Quality Is Built Into the Process
Precision engineering requires careful attention at every stage of production. While advanced CNC machinery provides the accuracy required for modern components, quality control remains essential.
Ashgarth Engineering has dedicated measurement equipment, including a Quantum 4-8105 CNC CMM. Coordinate measuring machines allow manufactured components to be inspected against their required specifications, helping to ensure dimensional accuracy and consistency.
Combining advanced production machinery with dedicated inspection equipment gives us greater control over the complete manufacturing process.
Supporting a Range of Industries
Our machining capabilities allow us to support customers working across several specialist sectors. Ashgarth Engineering provides subcontract engineering services for industries including yellow goods, oil and gas, science and medicine, and architecture.
Each sector presents different requirements, but precision and reliability remain common priorities. By combining experienced engineers with modern CNC machinery, we can adapt our approach to suit different component specifications and production requirements.
