Not all CNC machining services are created equal. For manufacturers operating in high-risk, high-value environments, precision is not a marketing term, it is a commercial necessity.
Glassworks Hounsell (GWH) delivers precision CNC machining for clients who cannot afford compromise, offering a trusted blend of heritage engineering knowledge and modern CNC capability.
What Are CNC Machining Services and Why Do They Matter?
CNC machining services encompass a wide range of subtractive manufacturing processes, including milling and turning. At GWH, these services are focused on large, complex, and high-tolerance components, not small commodity parts.
GWH’s CNC capability supports:
- Heavy-duty industrial machinery
- Automation and robotic systems
- Aerospace and specialist engineering components
Every job is approached with an understanding of function first, not just dimensions.
CNC Turning Service Built for Accuracy and Reliability
A CNC turning service is only as good as its ability to maintain consistency over time. GWH operates advanced turning centres capable of handling complex geometries and challenging materials.
Precision CNC Turning for Demanding Materials
GWH routinely machines:
- Cast iron
- Inconel and super duplex alloys
- Stainless steels (304 and 316)
- Aluminium alloys, including HIP’ed materials
This experience ensures that precision CNC turning delivers repeatable results, even in materials that many suppliers avoid.
Custom CNC Machining Services, Not Off-the-Shelf Solutions
Many buyers ask: “Do you offer custom CNC machining services?”
At GWH, the answer is not just yes, it is the foundation of how the business operates.
Custom CNC machining at GWH includes:
- CAD and CAM programming in-house
- Design for manufacture input
- Machining of one-off prototypes through to repeat production
This engineering-led approach reduces errors, improves performance, and lowers lifecycle cost.
How GWH Maintains Precision at Scale
Precision is not achieved by machines alone. GWH supports its CNC machining services with:
- ISO 9001 quality systems
- In-house CMM inspection
- Highly experienced machinists and engineers
Every component is measured, verified, and documented to ensure it meets both dimensional and functional requirements.
Leadership Means Knowing What You Don’t Do
A key part of GWH’s leadership position is clarity. GWH does not chase:
- Low-margin volume machining
- Price-led subcontract overflow
- Small, non-critical components
Instead, GWH focuses on precision CNC machining services where engineering input, accountability, and trust matter most.
