High Precision Machining Using CNC Lathe and Mill

One of this weeks tasks was a bit of machining work for a prototype project for Dr. Yakubu Balogun at Robert Gordon University. Elements of this required high precision machining using our CNC lathes and Mill. Using these, we have produced accurate parts, all with a high quality surface finish that can be seen below.
We have enjoyed working with Dr. Yakubu Balogun and wish him all the best with his project.
