A guide to our cutting-edge machining facilities

January 23, 2025

We utilise our extensive and capable machine shop to support and enhance our manufacturing processes.

Our machining facilities are used to create components or tooling within the construction of a product assembly. This ensures that we are able to provide complex, quality products for customers in a variety of high-performance markets.


Machining is used at all stages of the product cycle, from pattern machining for composite moulds and tooling through to precision finishing of final components. Having this capability in-house, and at our Bicester site, eliminates any potential sub-contracting issues or delays and facilitates fast-make, high-volume production.

The following are selected examples of our machines and their capabilities:
