Our CNC milling section is equipped with a range of Doosan and Leadwell vertical machining centres. We specialize in machining parts up to 2100mm x 675mm, giving us the capability to handle larger components with precision. Following the success of our first machine, we invested in a second machine three years later, significantly enhancing our capacity for larger projects.
In addition, we have two Leadwell machines with a capacity of 1200mm x 600mm. This variety of machine sizes allows us to offer exceptional flexibility in the parts we can accommodate, setting us apart from many other subcontract machine shops.
We proudly serve a wide range of industries, including automotive, special-purpose machinery, and defence. Our expertise extends across various materials, from plastics and aluminium to steels and stainless steel, ensuring we can meet diverse customer requirements.
Our CNC turning section is divided into two key areas. In 2020, we invested in a brand-new Doosan Puma GT2100 lathe, chosen for Doosan’s outstanding reputation in the market. The GT series lathes offer exceptional part accuracy, repeatability for high-volume production, superior cutting performance, and enhanced process reliability — all thanks to its robust box guideway design. This investment allows us to remain competitive on larger volume production runs.
We also operate an XYZ Proturn SLX 425 CNC lathe, which is ideal for one-off and low-volume, high-accuracy production. This machine integrates seamlessly with our existing setup, further enhancing our machining capabilities and ensuring we can meet a wide range of customer needs.
New for 2025 – Birds Precision Engineering has invested in a Sodick AG 600L wire erosion machine, expanding our in-house capabilities to improve turnaround times for our customers.
EDM (Electro Discharge Machining) technology enables us to achieve extremely tight tolerances of 5 microns across a wide range of materials, including through-hardened tool steels. As long as the material is conductive, we can cut it with precision.
This machine allows us to produce complex components for various industries, including aerospace, medical, special-purpose machine tools, and nuclear sectors. This investment reinforces our commitment to delivering high-precision solutions with improved efficiency.
We pride ourselves on being the complete manufacturing solution for our customers, we offer a full fabrication service from laser cutting, metal bending and forming and MIG and TIG welding. We can fabricate in a range of material including aluminium, steel and stainless offering rapid turnaround.
