Manual Machining Capabilities
Looking for quality manual machining work for your next project? Sometimes the quality workmanship of an experienced Tool Maker, to make your one of a kind part or prototype part, is essential to your project’s success. PTE’s manual machining department prides itself in producing quality, accurate pieces in situations where using an automated machine would not be cost or time effective. We pride ourselves in providing you with quality milling, turning (lathe) and grinding work to meet your project needs, in a timely manner.
