We support field repair machining, part restoration, and modification of existing hardware when new production is not required or parts are no longer available.
Can you duplicate or replace legacy components?
Yes. We reverse-engineer out-of-production defense parts, develop machining programs, and provide consistent replacements with full documentation.
How do you ensure accuracy and repeatability?
Every part undergoes precision inspection using CMMs and calibrated metrology equipment. Process controls and documentation are maintained from setup through final inspection.
Do you provide documentation with parts?
Yes. Every job is delivered with dimensional inspection reports, material certifications, and process documentation as required by the buy
What is your typical lead time?
Most projects are completed within 2–4 weeks. Lead times depend on material availability and complexity, and expedited machining is available.
