Services
Precision Machining
Parker Machine delivers precision machining services using both CNC and conventional equipment. Our team produces components to exact specifications for industrial applications. With capabilities in alloy wear plates, valve bodies, and specialized components, we serve demanding sectors requiring tight tolerances and high-quality finishes.
Reverse Engineering
We specialize in reverse engineering from sample parts or CAD files. This capability enables us to recreate complex components when original blueprints are unavailable. Our machinists use advanced measurement tools and modern equipment to ensure dimensional accuracy and functional equivalence in replacement parts.
CNC Machining
Our CNC machining services include vertical and horizontal centers with multi-axis capabilities. The OKUMA MC-4VA and Cincinnati Arrow 750 machines handle complex geometries with high precision. These computer-controlled systems ensure consistent quality for production runs and prototype development across various materials.
Welding Services
We provide MIG and TIG welding services for industrial applications. Our certified welders work with different metals to create structural components, repair equipment, and fabricate custom solutions. Quality control measures ensure weld integrity meets industry standards for critical applications.
Quality Assurance
A dedicated quality assurance inspector maintains our high standards through dimensional verification and material testing. We use precision tools including surface plates, micrometers, and hardness testers. This systematic approach ensures every component meets specified tolerances and performance requirements before customer delivery.
