Chips, sparks, and parts coming off the machine.
No stock footage and no studio. Just real cuts on real machines in the Kannapolis shop. Watch a part take shape, then send us yours.
Four problems walk through this door
If one of these sounds like your week, you're in the right place. Each one ends the same way: a finished part, built to spec.
We reverse engineer obsolete parts from the worn original, measure, model, machine. Often in a better material than the factory used.
Recreate the part → "The catalog part almost fits."Almost is a failure mode. We build the exact-fit version, or modify the catalog part correctly, not with a hammer.
Get the exact fit → "It's still a sketch."Napkin to CAD to working prototype, with honest feedback before metal gets cut. If a design won't hold up, we say so and show what will.
Prototype it → "I need fifty more, identical."Small-batch production with the documentation to repeat it next quarter and next year. No big-shop minimums, no lead-time games.
Plan the run →Six disciplines, one roof, zero hand-offs
Design support through final inspection happens in-house. You talk to the person making the part, not a ticket queue.
CNC Machining
Milling & turning: brackets, plates, fixtures, bushings, shafts, and complex one-off geometry. Big parts to fine, small parts like washers and spacers.
HAAS + Miyano →Custom Fabrication
Cutting, forming, and assembly for frames, mounts, guards, enclosures, and the fixture nobody sells.
Built to fit →TIG & MIG Welding
Steel, stainless, and aluminum. Structural repairs that hold and cosmetic beads that look like they should.
Hold and look right →Prototyping & Reverse Engineering
Sketch or worn original to documented, repeatable part. In-house FDM & resin printing proves fitment before metal gets cut.
Idea in, part out →Laser Engraving
Serial numbers, scales, logos, and traceability marks: permanent and repeatable on finished parts. 60W fiber + diode.
Marking & ID →Firearms Accessories & Tactical Hardware
Accessory components, mounting systems, brackets, and adapters, prototype-to-production support for equipment developers.
Hardware development →From problem to part in four steps
You don't need CAD files or a perfect drawing to start. You need a problem worth solving and a couple of business days for the quote.
Send it
A spec, a sketch, a photo, the broken part, or a clear description. Any one of them is enough to start.
Plan it
Design review, material selection, and a straight quote. If something in the design will fail, we flag it before metal gets cut.
Build it
Machine, weld, fabricate, or engrave, with a direct line to the machinist if anything changes mid-job.
Prove it
Inspect against the spec, finish, and deliver. If it doesn't measure right, it doesn't leave.
The work is the argument
Hands-on machining experience behind every job, not a number on a brochure.
Of parts measured against the spec before they ship. No exceptions for rush jobs.
Unit range we run, documented so unit 500 matches unit 1.
No off-the-shelf bracket existed for the customer's engine swap. The closest catalog option needed modification and still flexed under load.
Measured directly from the vehicle, modeled the part, machined 6061 billet, TIG-welded the gusset, and test-fit before delivery.
A direct-fit part, stiffer than the original concept, documented and repeatable for future runs.
If it doesn't measure right, it doesn't leave.
Every part is checked against the spec before delivery. That's the whole quality policy, and it's not negotiable.
Serious, project-based work across four verticals
Performance Automotive
Engine-swap brackets, hubs, adapters, and one-off fitment that off-the-shelf parts can't handle.

Send a sketch, a spec, or the broken part itself.
STEP, IGES, DXF, a PDF, a phone photo, or a clear description, any one of them is enough to start. Quotes typically answered within about two business days.
