The equipment at our disposal allows us to create high-precision devices for a wide variety of clinical or research applications. Examples of devices that have been produced by this facility include: acrylic cranial windows, a brain tissue environmental chamber, a myocardium rapid-freezing device and a mitral valve repair frame. With the combination of our trained technicians and advanced equipment we can help you develop a custom device that will enable you to complete projects or procedures. Some of our machining equipment include:
Software
CAD Computer aided Design; Solidworks is our main design software we also use AutoCad and ProEngineer.
CAM Computer aided Manufacturing; Our main software is
MasterCam X5 we also use FeatureCam.

CNC Machines
Packed into our 5000 square foot facility are four CNC vertical machining centers (VMC). SV-400 Mori Seike 5 axis Mill, a four axis Mori Seike SL-150 Lathe, 4 axis Mitsubishi Wire Electro Discharge Machine (WEDM) shown, Bridgeport EZ Path Lathe, Two Bridgeport EZ Path Mills, Three axis F1012E Precision Mill, 2 axis Precision Lathe.

Reverse Engineering & Inspection
Currently we use a LK G90cs full CNC Coordinate measuring Machine (CMM), Next Engine 3D laser scanner, Mitutoyo Profile Projector, Rockwell Hardness tester and a myriad of the regularly found machine shop inspection tools.
Manual Machines
Vertical Mills
Five vertical milling machines combined with machine fixtures and tooling increase the versatility of our milling machines. As a result, we can generate geometries as complex as conventional milling allows.
Lathes
Four engine lathes of various sizes are specially suited for high precision custom work. Capabilities range from turning large diameters (21") to holding extremely high tolerances.
Multiple Welding Disciplines
Our TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas), MIG, Plasma welding and cutting, Oxy-Acetylene and Arc welders allow us to weld a variety of materials including stainless steel, steel, aluminum and titanium. We are well versed in Brazing, silver soldering and tin soldering.
Precision Surface Grinding
Three types of grinders allow us to achieve lustrous surface finishes on hardened materials such as chromium cobalt, hardened tool steels, carbides and heat-treated stainless steels while holding extremely close tolerances.
Surface Finishing
The look of the final product is what matters giving devices a good looking outer finish we use either one of our two bead blasting methods. We have aluminum oxide beads that give a slightly dimpled finish, or silicon carbide chips that give a deeper etched finish. To add text or designs to any metallic face we have an electrical etcher that burns the desired display into the surface of the device. Polishing and buffing to mirror finish is our signature.
Heat Treating
With our high precision temperature-controlled programmable electrical furnace, we can provide a range of heat treatments for steel items up to 4" x 6" x 12". We also work closely with local heat treaters to fill voids where our capabilities leave off.
Shears/Breaks
Standard metalworking equipment is available for shearing, bending and forming sheet metal and bar stock.
Plastic shop
Our plastic shop is where most of the fabrication of Acrylic, Polycarbonate, Ultem, Polysulfone, and other plastics is performed. The shop also handles wood in order to make fixtures or low devices for various research projects.
