These machines also support modular automation, reducing lead times and enhancing productivity in high-volume production runs. [Know More](https://www.rainfordprecision.com/cnc-turn-mill-centre) ![DoLittle2\_web](https://www.rainfordprecision.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20sitepage%20images/DoLittle2_web.png?width=354&height=300&name=DoLittle2_web.png "DoLittle2_web") ![Finepart Waterjet ](https://www.rainfordprecision.com/hubfs/Finepart%20Waterjet%20.png "Finepart Waterjet ") Finepart’s micro-abrasive waterjet cutting technology introduces another layer of precision, offering positional accuracy of ±2.5µm and repeatability of ±2µm. This capability is particularly valuable for machining advanced materials like carbon fibre composites and titanium alloys, which are widely used in aerospace for their strength-to-weight ratios.  [Know More](https://www.rainfordprecision.com/water-jet-cutting-machine)  PEMTec’s precision electrochemical machining (PECM) further complements these solutions by enabling contactless machining of metal parts with sub-micron accuracy and surface finishes as fine as 0.03µm, ideal for critical engine components and other high-stress applications.

Their dynamic alignment turning method achieves tilt tolerances below 12 arcseconds and shift tolerances under 1µm, ensuring optimal performance for avionics and sensor systems. This level of precision is critical for applications like infrared optics and laser guidance systems, where even minor deviations can compromise functionality. [Know More](https://www.rainfordprecision.com/diamond-turning-machines) Collectively, these high-precision CNC solutions from Rainford Precision empower the aerospace industry to innovate with confidence, producing lighter, stronger, and more accurate and reliable components while reducing manufacturing costs and lead times.

We have only drilled 4 x 0.80mm holes 50d deep but the fact they worked the first time was appreciated by everyone. Senior Manufacturing Engineer Moto Sport > We use OSG mainly but when we have a specific job that needs doing, we come to Rainford Precision because they are and do the Crème De La Crème of Products and services. Works Manager Precision Engineering > The End Mill was an ideal choice due to the unusual shape and the need to have a small radius. They turned out great, and the surface finish is really good. External Works Manager Precision Engineering > I would like to say thank you for the help you have given our project over the last few years. Your advice on the correct cutters plus the right speeds and feeds has not only helped with accuracy but brought the cycle times down so we can meet our project deadlines. Mechanical Engineering Education Sector > Thank you for making that so incredibly easy and prompt. Manufacturing Engineer Precision Engineering > We received your delivery this morning as you had promised to do for us, thanks for that, it is great when a plan comes together. Production Engineer Precision Engineering > A diamond service from Rainford as usual.
