Large aluminium plate machining needs speed and stability. PRV's Takumi H22S high speed centre machines aluminium plates and structures up to 2200mm x 1650mm. Established in 1986, PRV Engineering operates from a 54,000 sq ft precision engineering facility in Pontypool, South Wales.
Large work is handled on two dedicated machines. The Takumi H22S high speed machining centre offers X 2200mm, Y 1650mm and Z 800mm for aluminium plates and structures. The Kao-Ming KMC-3000SVH 5 face machining centre, with high torque for steel, offers X 3230mm, Y 1950mm and Z 775mm. Five face access means big parts are machined on most sides in a single clamping, keeping datums true across the whole component.
Big parts bring big headaches if the machine is too small. Multiple set ups, re-fixturing and part flipping all add error and cost. Large format machines take the whole part in one go, keep datums true and cut lead times. Ask any supplier for their actual table size and travels before you place large work, because not every shop that says large means it.
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.
Batch size is not a problem. One-offs, pre-production runs and high volume schedules all go through the same controlled process. Materials cover the full spread from mild steel to titanium and nickel alloys, and Kanban, VMI, consignment and JIT supply can be set up for repeat lines.
PRV keeps things simple for buyers. One quote covers every process, one purchase order covers the whole job, and one team is accountable for the result. Material certificates, inspection reports and conformity paperwork are supplied as required.
One supplier, one order, one point of contact. That is the PRV promise. Every major process from cutting to final finish is done in Pontypool under ISO 9001:2015, with BS EN 1090 EXC3, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 alongside. A continuous improvement and design for manufacture mindset means customers often end up with a better part at a lower cost.
