Viking Plant Equipment

At Viking Precision Engineers, we specialise in CNC Milling, CNC Turning and CNC Grinding and are supported by conventional machining and grinding facilities. A large section of these CNC machines are manufactured by MAZAK™, who are a leading global manufacturer in machine tools.

We use state of the art CAD/CAM processing system called FeatureCAM® by Autodesk™. This enables us to automate machining, interpret drawings and 3D models straight into our machines increasing productivity and reducing costs to our customer.

In addition to these services, we also offer coded welding services and have a dedicated metal fabrication department.

 

Turning

A diverse range of large capacity chucking CNC lathes is complemented by various bar feed lathes providing capacity for small, medium or long runs of turned parts ranging in size from 1mm up to 1000mm. Driven tooling, twin chucks and the latest graphics controllers enable production of the most complex parts in one set up thereby reducing component costs and speeding up turn-round.

All our CNC lathes are capable to turn, mill, drill, hard turn and engrave part numbers on each component. Once the item is heat treated we can grind to a specific size and surface finish requirement.

Milling

Viking Precision Engineers continually demonstrate a capability to machine large, very tight-limit aerospace components in special materials, through to refurbishment machining of large heavy railway rolling stock castings. Customers find the input they receive from us is exceptional and it always encourages them to have more and more of the kit parts for their complete assemblies produced by us.

Numerous mainly large vertical CNC machining centres provide capacity for the production of 1-100's of large components up to 3000mm long x 1500mm wide x 500mm high. The majority of these are 4 axis.
