At Oldham Engineering, we specialise in large precision machining that meets the most exacting industrial standards. With over 160 years of engineering excellence behind us, our facility and our people are perfectly equipped to deliver precision, scale and reliability across a wide range of sectors including nuclear, defence, offshore & subsea and power generation.
What We Mean by Large Precision Machining
When we talk about large precision machining, we refer to the capability to accurately manufacture and finish sizable and complex components, sometimes to extremely tight tolerances. Our machining operations cover both heavy and light machining and our skilled workforce operates advanced CNC machines capable of handling large workpieces with consistent quality.
The precision aspect means every dimension, every surface finish and every feature must conform to design and regulatory requirements. For sectors like nuclear, defence, or subsea, the margin for error is small and we understand that fully. We don’t just machine parts; we ensure they perform safely, reliably and without compromise in demanding environments.
Quality, Compliance and Industries
We understand that large precision machining isn’t just about size or finish: it’s about adherence to high standards, safety and regulatory compliance. We are certified to ISO 9001:2015 and hold several welding, fabrication and integrity accreditations (e.g., AWS D1.1, BSEN, ANSI, NORSOK) which underpin our capability in delivering parts and assemblies for high-integrity applications.
