CNC milling
Precision machining
3-, 4- and 5-axis milling in aluminium, steel, stainless and titanium, held to the tolerances on your drawing.
Managed global manufacturing network
Precision parts.
Global scale.
One accountable partner.
Millworks X-Tend turns your drawing into delivered, inspected parts. We engineer, cost, source, quality-gate and ship through a vetted network of manufacturers — so you manage one relationship, not forty.
01
Engineered first
Every drawing is reviewed for manufacturability before a single supplier is asked to quote.
02
Cost you can read
A should-cost model behind every price: material, machine time, finishing, logistics, margin.
03
Quality-gated
Nothing ships until inspection, certificates and non-conformances are cleared.
04
Tracked to your dock
Milestones, shipments and invoices in one place, from first cut to final mile.
Most sourcing is a spreadsheet, a stack of emails and a hope. Ours is an operating system for the factory floor you do not own.
Capabilities
The shop floor, at scale.
Machined, turned, fabricated and finished — qualified manufacturers matched to each part by process, material, certification and capacity.
CNC turning
Turned components
Shafts, bushes and complex turned parts from prototype quantities to repeat production.
Fabrication
Structures and weldments
Sheet metal, structural steel and welded assemblies — cut, formed, welded and finished.
Heavy industry
Plant and process parts
Forged, cast and machined components for energy, process and heavy-equipment programmes.
- Casting
- Forging
- Sheet metal
- Laser cutting
- Heat treatment
- Anodising
- Powder coat
- Passivation
- Assembly
- First-article inspection
How it works
From drawing
to dock.
01
You send the requirement
Drawings, 3D models, quantities and dates. Your files are visible only to the people who need them.
02
Engineering review
Our engineers check feasibility, tolerances, material and process, and raise queries before anything is quoted.
03
Should-cost
A transparent cost model sets the price benchmark, so you know what a part should cost and why.
04
Sourcing and award
The right manufacturers are shortlisted on capability, capacity and track record. Quotes are compared like for like, and orders can be split across suppliers.
05
Production and quality gate
Milestones are tracked on the shop floor. Dispatch is blocked until inspection, certificates and open non-conformances are cleared.
06
Logistics and close-out
Shipment tracking, delivery confirmation and invoicing, with the full record kept for the next order.
The network
A network, not a catalogue.
Manufacturers are onboarded and scored on on-time delivery, quality and capacity — and matched to each job by process, material, certification and available machine hours.
- Matched, not listedEligibility is checked against your requirement before anyone is invited to quote.
- Scored on deliveryPast on-time performance and quality records shape who gets the work.
- Capacity-awareAwards respect real machine hours, so promises on paper match the floor.
Supply chain
Moving parts, moved properly.
Industries
Built for demanding programmes.
- AerospaceTraceable, inspected, drawing-controlled
- Semiconductor equipmentTight tolerances, clean finishes
- Railways and metroLong-life parts, repeat volumes
- Industrial machineryCastings, forgings, machined assemblies
- Energy and processHeavy sections, material certificates
- Medical and precision devicesDocumented, inspected, repeatable
Quality and confidentiality
Nothing leaves the floor until it is right.
A hard quality gate
Dispatch is blocked until inspection, certificates and open non-conformances are cleared.
Drawing revisions under control
New revisions are tracked, old ones superseded, and costing and sourcing are flagged for review automatically.
Your IP stays yours
Drawings and 3D models are visible to a manufacturer only after award, or when we approve an access request. Every view is logged.
