CNC Machining
Advanced multi-axis CNC milling, turning, and EDM services for complex metal and plastic components. From rapid prototypes to full production runs, we deliver uncompromising accuracy.
SteelForge CNC Machining delivers high-precision components for aerospace, automotive, medical, and industrial applications. Our climate-controlled facility houses the latest 5-axis machining centres, multi-tasking turning centres, and wire EDM machines.
We specialise in complex geometries, tight tolerances (±0.01mm), and a wide range of materials from aluminium and stainless steel to titanium and engineering plastics. Every component is backed by full dimensional inspection and material certification.
Comprehensive precision machining capabilities covering the full spectrum of CNC processes, all under one roof.
Simultaneous 5-axis machining for complex, multi-sided components in a single setup. Dramatically reduces cycle times while achieving exceptional surface finish and geometric accuracy.
Multi-axis turning centres with live tooling for mill-turn operations. Capable of producing complex shafts, bushes, and precision cylindrical components in a single operation.
Ultra-precise wire electrical discharge machining for intricate profiles, tight corners, and hard materials that are difficult to machine conventionally. Surface finishes down to Ra 0.2µm.
Fast-turnaround prototyping services to validate designs before full production. We work directly from your CAD models, delivering functional prototypes in days, not weeks.
Scalable production runs from 50 to 50,000+ parts with full process control, SPC monitoring, and consistent quality. Automated loading and in-process gauging ensure repeatability.
Complete manufacturing solutions including machining, surface treatment, assembly, and testing of finished sub-assemblies. We manage the entire supply chain for you.
Detailed analysis of 3D models, tolerances, and material specifications
Optimised CAM programming for cycle time, surface finish, and tool life
Precision fixturing, tool setting, and multi-axis CNC machining

Our standard machining tolerance is ±0.05mm, with achievable tolerances down to ±0.01mm on critical features. For Wire EDM, we can hold ±0.005mm. All tolerances are verified using calibrated Zeiss CMM equipment, and we provide full dimensional reports with every batch.
Absolutely. We provide rapid prototyping services with lead times as short as 3 working days. Our engineers will review your CAD model and provide design-for-manufacture feedback to optimise the part for production. Once the prototype is approved, we seamlessly transition to full production runs.
We accept all common CAD formats including STEP (.stp), IGES (.iges), Parasolid (.x_t), and native files from SolidWorks, Inventor, and Fusion 360. A fully dimensioned PDF drawing is also helpful. Our CAM team programmes directly from your 3D model.
Yes, every material batch comes with full mill certification (EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 as required). For aerospace and medical projects, we provide full traceability from raw material to finished part, including heat treatment and surface treatment certifications.
Yes, we offer a complete range of finishing services including anodising (Type II and Type III), hard chrome plating, electroless nickel plating, passivation, powder coating, and laser marking. We manage the entire process through our approved supply chain, delivering finished components ready for assembly.
