Composite trimming and machining.
We trim, drill and machine carbon fiber, fiberglass and kevlar parts, including parts you have laid up yourself. With 6-axis robots and 5-axis machining centers up to 8 × 3 × 2 m.
Robots and 5-axis to cut without damaging the fiber.
Composites are not machined like metal: the fiber is abrasive and frays or delaminates if the tool, speed or workholding is not right. We choose the tooling and strategy for each material.
We have two 6-axis KUKA robots, one on a 7 m linear track, and large-format 5-axis machining centers.
- Edge trimming
- Drilling and countersinking
- Cut-outs, pockets and seats
- Machining of inserts and joint areas
We machine your parts.
If you lay up at your own facility, we can trim and drill your parts with the right holding fixture and return them measured. We work confidentially and, if required, under NDA.

Send us your drawing or 3D model, and we’ll bring it to life.
We study your project with the same care you put into designing it, then send you a clear proposal covering process, lead time and price. Only have the physical part? We’ll scan it and take it from there.
What customers ask us most.
Can you trim parts we have laid up ourselves?
Yes. We design the holding fixture, trim, drill and return the parts to you measured.
How do you prevent delamination when drilling carbon fiber?
With tooling designed for composites, parameters adapted to the material and backing support for the part where the drill exits.
How large a part can you machine?
Up to 8 × 3 × 2 m on our largest 5-axis center, and long parts with the robot on the 7 m linear track.
