At LDC Engineering Ltd, many of our customers require more than one machining process to complete their projects. By combining CNC machining with our specialist deep hole drilling services, we provide a seamless solution that saves time, reduces the need for multiple suppliers, and ensures consistent quality from start to finish.

Precision Through CNC Machining

CNC machining is central to modern manufacturing, offering the accuracy and repeatability required for demanding industries. At LDC, we provide CNC milling and turning alongside other machining services, allowing us to produce complex shapes and components to exact specifications. This capability means that when deep holes are required, the rest of the part can already be prepared to the same high standard.

The Benefits of Integrated Deep Hole Drilling

Deep hole drilling is a specialist process that requires both skill and the right equipment. With our capacity to drill up to 68mm diameter and depths of up to 2m, and gun drilling to 38mm diameter with depths of 4m (on certain diameters), we can meet a wide variety of customer requirements. By offering this service in-house alongside CNC machining, we remove the delays and risks that can occur when work is outsourced to different providers.

Reducing Lead Times and Improving Efficiency

For customers, one of the key benefits of combining CNC machining with deep hole drilling under one roof is efficiency. Projects move smoothly through our workshop without unnecessary transport or scheduling issues. This streamlined approach not only reduces lead times but also minimises the potential for errors, giving customers confidence that their components will be delivered to specification and on time.

A Reliable Partner for Complex Projects

We understand that industries such as aerospace, automotive, and engineering demand precision and reliability. By bringing together CNC machining and deep hole drilling, we give our customers a complete solution that supports complex projects, whether it’s a one-off prototype or part of a production run.
