Aluminium fabrication for defence covers lightweight shelters, frames and equipment mounts. PRV fabricates to drawing with full traceability. Established in 1986, PRV Engineering operates from a 54,000 sq ft precision engineering facility in Pontypool, South Wales.
Aluminium fabrication at PRV covers framework, gates, enclosures, access platforms, cradles and bespoke assemblies. Aluminium needs a different touch from steel, from cutting and forming to welding and distortion control, and PRV has the skills and kit to handle it. Large aluminium plates and structures can also be machined on the Takumi H22S high speed machining centre, so fabricated and machined features come from the same supplier.
Aluminium is lighter than steel, doesn't rust and machines quickly, but it needs specialist welding skills and careful heat control. Distortion, porosity and cracking are common faults in the wrong hands. Using an experienced aluminium fabricator with machining capability under the same roof gets you an accurate, sound part first time.
Defence work demands repeatable accuracy, full traceability and a supplier that can be trusted with sensitive programmes. PRV supports the defence sector with machined, cut, fabricated and finished parts, working to drawing and specification under ISO 9001:2015 quality control. Hardened steels, armour plate and specialist alloys are all handled routinely.
PRV works from customer drawings, specifications or OEM samples. Mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper and exotic alloys are all handled, in quantities from one to full production, with call off stock available to keep your shelves lean.
The process is simple. Send a drawing, CAD model, specification or sample. PRV reviews it, flags any manufacturing concerns and quotes promptly. Once ordered, the job is planned through the relevant departments, inspected against your requirements and dispatched with the paperwork you need.
Being a true one stop shop is the big advantage. A part can be cut, machined, welded, plated and painted without ever leaving the site, which cuts lead times, removes supplier handovers and keeps quality in one pair of hands. Accreditations include BS EN ISO 9001:2015, BS EN 1090 EXC3, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, Constructionline and Acclaim SSIP.
