Manufacturing Materials
We have experience machining a range of materials: stainless steel, carbon/alloy steel, tool steel, bronze, stellite, monel, hasteloy, and inconel.
​
Does this mean we can’t work with titanium, aluminum, or other alloys? No. It just means, it’s not yet commonplace for us. We don’t claim extensive experience we don’t have. Can we work with titanium or other alloys? Sure.
