Precision Turning Backed by Experience

LDC Engineering Ltd, based in West Yorkshire, offers CNC turning as part of its wider precision machining capabilities. While deep hole and gun drilling are the company's core specialisms, CNC turning is an important in-house service that supports a wide variety of engineering applications. With decades of experience in sub-contract machining, LDC applies the same attention to detail and quality control across all services—including turning.

CNC turning involves machining cylindrical components by rotating the material while a controlled cutting tool removes material to form the desired shape. At LDC, this is performed on modern CNC lathes that ensure repeatable accuracy, clean finishes, and tight tolerances. This service supports both prototype development and large-scale batch production.

Supporting Complex Projects Across Materials

LDC Engineering machines an extensive range of materials using its CNC turning service. These include mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, bronze, cast iron, and duplex, along with plastics such as resin and nylon. The ability to work across this wide material base makes CNC turning an ideal solution for projects with diverse requirements. It’s particularly suited to components such as shafts, bushings, collars, pins, and custom turned parts used in industries like automotive, toolmaking, engineering, and telecommunications.

Because all services are completed in-house, LDC ensures full control over every step—from material handling to final inspection. Parts that require multiple operations, such as turning and drilling or milling, can be processed efficiently without leaving the workshop. This not only saves time but also improves consistency and traceability.

Integrated Machining with End-to-End Support

What sets LDC Engineering apart is their ability to integrate CNC turning into a wider machining workflow. In addition to turning, they offer CNC milling, surface grinding, radial drilling, and their flagship deep hole and gun drilling capabilities. This combination allows them to provide complete solutions for customers who require more than one type of machining process.

Whether you need a single component or a full production run, LDC Engineering provides dependable support. Their in-house setup is ideal for customers who want precision machining without the delays or variability of managing multiple subcontractors.
