Marine
In
brief
Milltech machines precision marine components in Norwich, UK: propellers, shafts, fittings and mould tooling, all built to resist corrosion and load in marine environments. We machine bronze, stainless, aluminium and copper, CMM-verified with full material traceability, from one-off parts to production.
Overview
Marine components face constant exposure to salt water and load. We machine propellers, shafts, fittings and mould tooling in corrosion-resistant bronze, stainless and aluminium, inspected by CMM and fully traceable.
