5 axis CNC machining services reach angled faces, compound features and undercuts that 3 axis machines simply can't. PRV runs full 5 axis synchronous plant for complex components. From its 54,000 sq ft site in Pontypool, South Wales, PRV Engineering has been machining, fabricating and finishing for UK industry since 1986.
PRV runs a Mazak Integrex i400 mill/turn centre that machines parts up to 658mm diameter x 1585mm long with full 5 axis synchronous milling and turning. Alongside it sit Mazak VTC800/30SR vertical travelling column machines with full 5 axis synchronous milling and a large working envelope. The result is complex parts done in one hit, with fewer set ups, fewer handling errors and better feature to feature accuracy.
5 axis machining pays for itself on complex parts. Every extra set up on a 3 axis machine adds time, fixtures and a chance of error. Cutting the part in one clamping keeps features in true relation to each other and slashes lead time. If your part has angled holes, compound faces or sculpted surfaces, 5 axis is usually the smarter route.
PRV serves a broad spread of industries including defence, medium to high voltage switchgear, rail, high performance automotive, oil and gas, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, food processing, aerospace, actuation, power generation, mechanical handling and valves. Whatever the sector, the standard is the same.
Materials range from everyday mild steels through to stainless, aluminium, copper and exotics such as Monel, Inconel, Hastelloy and titanium. PRV caters for one-offs, rapid prototypes and large batch production, and can hold stock for customers to call off in line with Kanban, VMI, consignment and JIT arrangements.
Every order follows a controlled route. Drawings are reviewed, materials are sourced with certification, work is planned across the shop floor and parts are inspected before dispatch. Customers get one contact who knows the job from quote to delivery.
PRV calls its approach One Answer, Many Solutions. Machining, waterjet cutting, deep hole drilling, fabrication, painting, powder coating, plating, installation and maintenance all sit under one roof, so customers deal with one company and raise one purchase order. Quality is controlled to BS EN ISO 9001:2015, BS EN 1090 EXC3, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001.
