UK companies working in manufacturing industries such as precision engineering are bullish about the future of their business, with British businesses expecting to recover better than their American counterparts.
It is argued that US firms have cut deeper into their headcount and as a result, the UK companies are better-placed to deliver better services in the CNC machining market in the coming months.
What is more, 72 percent of British precision engineering businesses expect there will be a number of acquisition opportunities in the sector over the course of the next 18 months.
The relatively smaller size of the UK's manufacturing firms compared to the giants of China, the US and elsewhere has made them more able to adapt quickly to the changing environment.
Many UK manufacturers have generally taken strong, sensible measures and are surviving and even thriving.
UK machine tools manufacturers have sought out contracts further afield in Eastern Europe with some success.
Machine tool companies currently identify aerospace as a target market.
CNC machine shop services.
Domestically in the UK, government too plays a part, with grants to purchase equipment such as CNC lathes and milling machines.
It does so under the Grant for Business Investment programme.
Typical of the industries that benefit are expert CNC and EDM precision machine shops, producing complex or difficult to machine components that need very close tolerance machining, including 5 axis machining, micromachining, wire EDM, and 3 4 and 5 axis CNC machining.
All of this is achieved via state of the art machines and a highly trained and motivated workforce.
5 Axis CNC Machining is for incredibly demanding machining of complex designs to execute a very accurate component.
True 5 axis machining.
CNC Machining - 3 and 4 Axis CNC machining services are for close tolerance applications.
While precision engineering companies boast specialism in 5 Axis work, 4 Axis Milling is for the truly discriminating needs of the aerospace and fibre industries.
Precision Machining is defined by exacting tolerances of.

004" (one to one hundred microns).
