Precision Defense Industry Part Manufacturer Built for Today's Geopolitical Challenges
If you have been paying any attention to world events lately, you may notice growing geopolitical tensions around the globe. From instability in the Middle East and the ongoing standoff with Iran to recent action taken by the United States against Venezuela and its oil tankers, now is a pivotal time for America to strengthen its domestic defense industrial base. Whether you support the actions taken by the current administration or not, it is essential that the United States protect its people and its sovereignty.
Defense programs — from aerospace to naval and land-based vehicles — rely on machined components that are precision engineered to exact specifications. W Machine Works provides those parts, utilizing the latest CNC manufacturing technologies while maintaining the quality systems and certifications necessary for top-tier defense manufacturing.
Precision Machined Parts for the Defense Industry
At W Machine Works, we specialize in computer numerical controlled (CNC) machining for aerospace and defense part programs. Our Los Angeles-based facility features state-of-the-art vertical and horizontal CNC equipment, including palletized 5-axis milling centers that allow for unattended machining cycles.
Not only do we have the tools and talent to manufacture highly complex geometries with very tight tolerances, but our machining expertise minimizes set-up times while maximizing throughput to ensure quality and affordable pricing for our customers.
Programming our CNC equipment to machine parts in 5 axes also allows us to cut features and surfaces that would otherwise require multiple setups. By machining a part in one setup, we can limit error stack-up and achieve better accuracy on the finished component.
While 5-axis machining isn’t always necessary, it allows our engineers greater flexibility when programming complex projects and can reduce lead times for our customers.
We work with all types of metals used in the aerospace and defense industry, from high strength alloys to exotic materials like titanium CNC machining and Inconel. No matter your application or material requirements, W Machine Works has the machining expertise to handle your project.
Quality Systems and Compliance for Defense Manufacturers
W Machine Works doesn’t just have the equipment to provide precision machined parts for defense customers, we also have the quality systems and certifications required to build your program:
AS9100 Certification
W Machine Works has a documented Quality Management System that meets the requirements of AS9100, the quality management standard for the aerospace industry. This standard is derived from ISO 9001 and contains additional stipulations specific to aerospace manufacturing, such as product traceability, first article inspection (FAI), and risk management.
ITAR Registration
W Machine Works is ITAR Registered, meaning we meet requirements to handle defense related articles and technical data that are deemed export controlled by the United States Department of State. If you are a defense OEM working on a classified program or program with export controlled components, you can trust W Machine Works to handle your project.
