SPECIALISTS IN MACHINING COMPONENTS TO OUR CUSTOMERS REQUIREMENTS OUT OF STEEL ALLOYS, ALUMINIUM, ENGINEERING PLASTICS AND EXOTIC ALLOYS.

Hornet Precision Engineering Ltd. specialises in CNC machining quality parts to high ISO9001:2015 standards for companies near Leicester, Peterborough, Northampton, and UK-wide. We take pride in offering CNC machining services to virtually every market sector. On a typical day, we can make anything from a tank bracket to a part for a World Championship-winning F1 car braking system.

Using the latest CNC (computer numerical control) machining technology, programmed with advanced CAD/CAM, we use our machines in the most cost-efficient, quality-driven, and time-efficient way possible, ensuring you get your machined components on time, at great value, and, above all, right the first time.

Services we offer

We specialise in milling and turning of metallic and plastic components in prototype, small and medium batch sizes, using our extensive network of suppliers we are also able to offer other services such as anodising, heat treatment, grinding etc, please see our capacities below for the sizes of components we are able to machine.

5 Axis CNC Machining

 

5-axis CNC machining moves tools across five axes at once, machining nearly every side of a part in a single setup. This cuts out manual repositioning, speeds up production, and delivers superior precision, accuracy and surface finish -even on the most complex shapes.

CNC Mill-Turn 

 

Mill-turn/multi-axis machines cut tooling and labour costs by combining milling and turning in one setup, boosting consistency and accuracy while eliminating manual repositioning errors. Automated, uninterrupted operation then ramps up production capacity and keeps labour expenses low.

3- and 4-axis CNC Milling

 

Our vertical machining centre—equipped with a 4th-axis rotary table, 12 kW spindle, and 20-tool carousel—delivers cost-effective prismatic and simple milling operations that don’t require 5-axis. It also handles post-5-sided second-op work for the fastest, most efficient finish

Started in 2018 as Hornet CNC Services, we offered in-house training, programming and CNC machine programmer, setter, and operator services to multiple sectors. Some of our customers included sub-contract machining companies in the oil and gas sector; however, most worked for the Current Formula 1 champions’ engine-building facility in Brixworth. In late 2020, we decided to start our own manufacturing facility in South Leicestershire so we could offer full in-house machining services using our 4-axis Haas vertical machining centre and a CMZ 2-axis turning lathe; in mid 2021, we changed the company name to Hornet Precision Engineering to reflect the change in our services.
