Outsourced solutions generally fall into two differing categories: simple one-step outsourcing, such as plating, painting, etc; and outsourcing that requires more involved project-management, such as material or casting sourcing, machining, heat treatment, or multiple processes and services from approved sources. PTG is well-versed with this method of project management and can offer cost-effective solutions to meet your requirements.
CNC Turning Capacity
The CNC turning at PTG offers customers a wide-ranging facilities from relatively small components to large CNC turning. The section is extensively equipped and includes several 2-axis semi CNC lathes with programmed conversational style controls. This allows capability of full CNC quality machining on small batches and prototypes within a fast time-scale. The CNC turning section also has 4-axis machines with driven tooling, including Y-axis capability for production of 'one-hit' components, as well as a range of modern 2- and 3-axis machines for medium and large conventional CNC turning.
Precision / Toolroom Milling
The toolroom milling section of PTG has been extensively upgraded in recent years and now has a comprehensive range of both 2- and 3-axis conversational style controlled machines of various sizes. This allows machining of small batch work, prototyping, and high-precision components as well as conventional close-tolerance milling. The section is fully-equipped with all types of accessory including 4th-axis machining.
Understanding the need for fast development of new ideas and products, and with our team of experienced engineers, PTG offers fast turnaround on a range of complex prototypes or standard milled components.
Manufacturing Engineering
Outsourcing manufacturing to specialist sub-contractors helps reduce operational costs. PTG Precision Engineers continually invest in manufacturing technologies to offer our customers the latest machine tools= whilst reducing their internal investment and capital expenditure. Outsourcing reduces overheads and the management resource needed to control a manufacturing facility.
PTG Precision Engineers specialise in providing a complete manufacturing engineering solution for your existing and potential customers. With our extended working hours and dedicated highly-skilled workforce, we offer integrated and collaborative partnerships that add value at all levels.
Production Control System
The introdution of the latest version of the well-proven JobBoss production control system ensures that PTG has full control of all shop-floor functions on a near paperless system. The day-to-day data concerning shop-floor operations is collected on a bar-code reader and provides live information of all works orders issued. Scheduling and sectio capacity is easily monitored and provides PTG management with the ability to forecase deliveries and re-route works orders if required. This system also allows us to react quickly to bottlenecks and unexpected orders with knowledge of the exact effect on production schedule.
Continued Investment
As a profitable company, PTG are able to make continual capital investment in new, more reliable and faster machinery. This capability has allows us to invest in multi-axis machining, CMM Inspection and the most modern tooling technologies. Such investments ensure the integrity of our own manufacturing capability which in turn reflects on the high quality of product that we are able to provide our customers.
Project Management
Project management of large complex or multiple components programmes can be undertaken by PTG. Our project management covers all aspects of manufacture, including such peripheral concerns as material or casting sourcing and supply, through to complete manufacture, assembly, and testing prior to delivery.
Quality Assurance
PTG Precision Engineers Ltd. has an array of quality approvbals from many blue-chip customers throughout the industry. We pride ourselves on holding the prestigious BS EN ISO 9001: 2000 standard which is maintained and audited by the BSI.
The inspection facilities at PTG include a purpose-built temperature-controlled room which houses the complete range of Metrology equipment required, including two latest-specification QCT Quantum 664 3-axis coordinate measuring machines (CMMs).
Outsourced Solutions
PTG provides a one-stop shop solution, allowing you to spend more time on your core business activities, safe in the knwoledge that PTG oversee the whole process from material procurement through to delivery. Outsourced solutions generally fall into two-differing categories: simple one-step outsourcing, such as plating, painting, etc.; and outsoucing that requires more involved project-management, such as material or casting sourcing, machining, heat treatment, or multiple processes and services from approved sources. PTG is well-versed with this method of project management and can offer cost-effective solutions to meet your requirements.
