CNC machined aluminium components are light, strong and quick to produce. PRV machines aluminium parts from small precision pieces to large plates and structures. Established in 1986, PRV Engineering operates from a 54,000 sq ft precision engineering facility in Pontypool, South Wales.
The CNC department runs 30 machining centres with a wide capacity range. Turning covers components from 6mm up to 600mm diameter and over 2500mm long, while milling handles work up to 3000mm x 850mm x 750mm with true 4th and 5th axis capability at 0.001 degree resolution. Renishaw probing, helical milling, auto pallet change and laser tool break detection keep spindles cutting and parts consistent. CAD/CAM links take IGS, STP, DXF, DGN and VDA files straight to programme, so complex components get from drawing to first-off without hanging about.
When choosing a CNC machining supplier, look past the hourly rate. Ask how many machines they run, what size envelope they can handle, how they inspect, and whether they can finish the part with plating, painting or assembly. A supplier with capacity and in-house finishing will usually beat a cheaper shop on total cost, lead time and hassle. PRV ticks every one of those boxes.
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.
