Aerospace and Defence Sector

UK manufacturing for high-performance parts

For applications where accuracy, strength-to-weight ratio and confidentiality are critical, we provide dependable manufacturing support from our UK-based facility.

We work with aerospace and defence teams developing prototypes, test rigs, and low-volume production parts that demand consistency and compliance. Whether it’s a functional test component, a complex geometry part or a small production batch, we help you achieve performance and repeatability with confidence.

Our secure, ISO-accredited environment ensures confidentiality and quality throughout every stage of production.

Key capabilities

  • Large-format SLA 750 for lightweight structural components
  • 5-axis CNC machining for metals and high-performance plastics
  • Injection moulding for repeatable production-grade parts
  • Vacuum casting for test and evaluation models

Typical applications

  • Structural prototypes and test fixtures
  • Avionics housings and mechanical interfaces
  • UAV and drone components
  • Enclosure and system mock-ups for field testing

Built on trust and collaboration

We understand the importance of security and reliability in your supply chain. That’s why all our work is carried out in the UK, with traceable materials and full process control.

When your internal capacity or capability is limited, we’re the trusted extension of your workshop.
