Below are just some of the Abilities SCL have at their disposal
Mass Precision Pressings
We excel in high-volume progressive presswork, offering flexible production scalability for individual components—from small batches of 50 to large-scale runs of 3,000,000 per year.
Washing machine drum Assemblies
SCL have built Custom assembly and production lines to manufacture up to 60,000+ per year
5 Axis Laser Cutting
SCL specializes in highly complex 5-axis laser programming and production, utilizing our large gantry-style CO2 laser.
What truly distinguishes us is our engineering agility: over the years, we have mastered the creation of custom jigs and system modifications that enable us to laser components no other company in the country has the ability to process. We are proud to say that when others couldn't, SCL delivered.
Surface Grinding
Our dedicated in-house tool room is fully equipped with precision surface grinders. By performing the immediate resurfacing and maintenance of cutting tooling on-site, we maximize your tool's lifespan and ensure your long-term running costs are kept to an absolute minimum.
Rotary Polishing
SCL has invested significantly in advanced polishing and lapping machinery and the specialized skills to operate them. This enables us to achieve an ultra-fine finish on components of virtually any shape or material.
Bespoke manufacturing
Leveraging the latest design and manufacturing software, SCL has a proven history of producing specialist components for prestigious automotive clients, including Aston Martin.
Tool Design
Starting as specialized tool drafters in the late 1960s, SCL has built over five decades of expertise. This profound, time-tested knowledge allows us to engineer and manufacture precisely the tooling necessary for the seamless production of your final component.
Metal Bending
Using our NC bending machine SCL can produce repetitive precise bends in sheet metal components.
Welding
To meet highly specific manufacturing needs, SCL has developed and invested in its own custom welding machinery. This includes a unique welder designed for producing continuous spot-weld lines on coated steel cylinders, as well as a dedicated machine for precisely positioning and securing custom spot-welded nuts.
These advanced, custom systems are complemented by our standard, comprehensive welding services available on-site.
De-Burring / Polishing
We have streamlined our finishing process through the strategic investment in a high-speed vibratory deburring machine. This autonomous system not only removes burrs from over 50,000 components per shift but also provides a consistent, polished surface.
Beyond automation, our capabilities include industrial hand polishing with specialized wheel machinery, allowing us to deliver superior finishes for bespoke or aesthetic-critical products, such as a recent subcontracted component for a prominent UK beauty product manufacturer.
Tooling Work
SCL brings generations of expertise to world-class tooling and custom manufacturing.
Drawing Generation
Our skilled in-house designers can transform your initial concept—even a rough sketch on a napkin—into a precise, production-ready technical drawing.
