Key steps controlled and inspected to one agreed standard, with first-article checks against your drawing.
Export packing and shipping coordinated to your door, with the quality documents you need.
Buying precision parts from China often fails in the same places: finding a capable factory, inconsistent finishes, too many suppliers and slow communication. We close those gaps with one contact, one quality standard and one party accountable from drawing to delivery.
A Nottingham-based team that speaks English and Mandarin and understands engineering drawings.
Each job is matched to the partner whose equipment and experience fit it.
Machining, finishing, testing and packing managed to the same requirements, with traceable records.
Clear quotes, quick answers and quality paperwork in the format your business expects.
No. We work with established partner manufacturers in China and act as your single point of contact and quality coordinator.
Aluminium alloys, stainless steels, carbon and alloy steels, tool steels, cast iron and aluminium–silicon carbide composites. Ask us about other materials.
It depends on the part. Our partners handle everything from prototypes and small batches to high-volume production.
Lead time depends on the part and quantity. We confirm the sample and production dates with your quotation.
Depending on the partner, IATF 16949, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, API, CE, Ford Q1 and TISAX. We will tell you which apply to your part.
Yes. We coordinate export packing and shipping, and can advise on delivery terms.
Precision manufacturing is part of our wider UK-China manufacturing support. We can also help with supplier discovery and factory audits, prototyping, NPI and tooling, and quality control, PPAP and batch testing.
