Supporting Large and Complex Components with Precision

Radial drilling is one of the core machining services offered by LDC Engineering Ltd at their West Yorkshire facility. Designed to support large, awkward, or heavy components, radial drilling allows engineers to drill accurately positioned holes without the need to reposition the workpiece—saving time while maintaining precision.

Unlike standard drilling setups, radial drilling machines feature an adjustable arm that swings and extends to reach multiple points on a component. This makes them ideal for parts that are difficult to move or have multiple hole locations that must be drilled with accuracy and consistency.

Part of a Complete Machining Solution

LDC Engineering includes radial drilling as part of a full suite of in-house services. Alongside deep hole and gun drilling, CNC milling, CNC turning, and surface grinding, their radial drilling capability enhances the versatility of their workshop. It enables them to work with a wide range of materials and project sizes, whether it’s a one-off custom part or a full production run.

Their team’s experience in handling various materials—including stainless steel, mild steel, aluminium, bronze, copper, duplex, cast iron, resin, and more—means clients can rely on them for consistent performance across different job types.

Trusted by UK Manufacturers

From toolmaking to general engineering, LDC Engineering's radial drilling service supports customers who need accurate, dependable machining for large components. The process is especially valuable when working with castings, flanges, plates, and other bulky items that benefit from fixed-position drilling with flexible tool reach.

By offering radial drilling in-house, LDC provides a reliable option for manufacturers looking to reduce handling, improve accuracy, and streamline production workflows—all without outsourcing.
