Elder Engineering

Our CNC turners are the people behind every precision #TurnedPart. 👇 Here you can see Rebecca on the Doosan Lynx 220LM - she started out on the lathes when she joined us, learning the basics before moving on to other areas of production! #Engineering #CNCMachining

All quiet on the shop floor… for now. 😏 Our machines are empty, but we’re ready to get back to work after the bank holiday. We hope everyone had a lovely Easter. Time to get back to business! #PrecisionEngineering #CNCTurning #CNCMachining #Manufacturing #PrecisionMachining

These are the only tapes we're interested in cutting this weekend... 😏 We hope everyone has a wonderful #Easter and enjoys the long bank holiday! We'll be back on Tuesday with our range of silicone, acrylic and rubber tapes - ready for all your #engineering projects.

Whatever you're searching for (in the world of engineering of course 👀), we're pretty sure we can help. Plastics, metals, sponge, rubber - we do it all, so you don’t have to worry. Let's get started on your next project: bit.ly/3xRIqEV #PrecisionEngineering #UKMfg

Great service, great relationships, great results. So pleased to receive such positive feedback from one of our customers - it really shows the impact of quality parts and reliable support, day in, day out. 🤝 #CustomerFeedback #PrecisionEngineering #CNCMachining #UKmfg

During the pandemic, a customer needed polymer & aluminium frames for medical diagnostic equipment. We delivered prototypes that met their strict tolerances, got approval & shipped the full run directly to their assembly house - helping them stay on schedule when it mattered. 🙌

It’s been 2 months since Billy joined us as an #apprentice, so we thought it was the perfect time to catch up and share how he’s getting on! We’re proud to support young talent - sharing our experience is one of the most valuable things we can do. #EngineeringApprenticeship

Meet one of the hardest-working machines on the Elder shop floor: the MAXI‑M3 1525 Advanced Series. It’s designed for high-speed industrial production with automated tool changing - helping us machine complex components with the accuracy our customers rely on. 🙌 #UKMfg

When a customer needed their products made, powder coated, screen printed & assembled, they didn’t want to juggle multiple vendors - so they came to us! We handled all the above, simplifying the process & securing the order. 🤝 Less hassle for them & a successful order for us!

With blue skies and a touch of spring in the air, we’re feeling excited for new projects. If you’re looking for a partner to bring your ideas to life, we’re here to help. 👋 Our expertise spans precision components, high-performance tapes, rubber, sponge & X-Ray test pieces.

We knew that already... but it's still nice to get a second opinion. 😏 #PrecisionEngineering #CNCTurning #CNCMachining #Manufacturing #UKMfg #PrecisionMachining

The Mitutoyo PJ-3000 is an optical profile projector that helps our technicians visually inspect and measure part contours and dimensions. It's a valuable tool in our quality control department before or alongside more automated metrology. 🙌 #PrecisionEngineering #CNCMachining

From one-off prototypes to full production runs, our #PlasticMachining team can turn almost any idea into a finished component. Using CNC routers, forming, bonding and polishing, we work with a huge range of materials - from ABS and Delrin to PEEK, acrylics, nylons and more. ✨

Precision turning starts with the right machines. 👇 From 76mm bar capacity to multi-axis capability, we’re set up to handle everything from simple components to more complex #TurnedParts. Backed by experienced engineers, we ensure every part meets spec - first time!

We’re lucky to work with such a brilliant team - & today we want to give them a shout-out. From machining metals & plastics to keeping our production running smoothly across all areas of the business, it’s the people behind the work who make it happen day in, day out. 🙌

You might know Elder for precision machining… but did you know we’ve been converting high-performance tapes for years? What started with a few slit rolls has grown into die-cutting, specialist conversion & holding stock of a wide range of tapes, rubber & sponge materials. ✨

Two minds are better than one… Especially when it comes to delivering a well-rounded service for our customers. 🤝 From initial briefings and early conversations through to finishing options and after-sales support, we work closely with you to make sure the job’s done right.

#EngineersWeek is a great chance to recognise the skill behind the parts. From complex geometries to tight tolerances, these parts show the experience & precision our team brings to each project 🙌 Since 1980, that expertise has driven our growth in precision metals & plastics!

Thanks to its rigid construction and multi‑axis control... The VMX 30Ui helps us deliver accurate, efficient #machining on complex parts that would otherwise require multiple setups on simpler machines. 🙌 For our customers, this means tricky parts, done right every time!

Consistent, reliable and competitively priced. That’s our promise to 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 project. 🤝 Across our various divisions - precision #metals and #plastics, high-performance tapes, sponge and #rubber and X-ray test pieces - we put the same care and expertise into every job.
