Products & Services

Unicut Precision was started by business partners Jason Nicholson and Charles Kenny in 1990, from a double garage in East Barnet. The partners began with two CAM autos, a lathe, a centreless grinder and a milling machine—producing general subcontract work and high-repetition turned parts.

Unicut was established to support UK manufacturers that needed a dependable precision engineering subcontractor capable of consistently producing high-quality turned and milled components.

Over more than three decades, the company has developed into a major precision multi-axis CNC turning and milling subcontractor, serving customers across multiple industries and supplying internationally.

Specialities & Technologies

Fixed Head CNC Turning & Mill-Turn Centres

Unicut operates a series of fixed head CNC mill/turn centres, providing our customers with parts machined on some of the most rigid, robust, and accurate turning centres available in the industry. Our significant investment in the latest Miyano technology reflects our commitment to precision, reliability, and production efficiency—delivering consistently high-quality components for even the most demanding applications.

These advanced machines feature dual spindles for simultaneous front and back-end machining, along with twin turrets that accommodate up to 42 cutting tools—24 of which can be driven. This makes the production of complex prismatic components both efficient and seamless.

Equipped with sophisticated software, our machines support superimposed cutting enabling up to three tools to work simultaneously—dramatically reducing cycle times.

 

Sliding Head CNC Turning Services

Our state-of-the-art CNC sliding head machinery provides the flexibility, capability, and capacity to deliver bespoke precision engineering services for even the most demanding specifications. Our facility houses 16 advanced Citizen sliding head CNC turning centres, producing both simple and complex components across a wide range of industries.

Grouped in size-specific cells, these machines enable streamlined production scheduling and support Just-in-Time (JIT) delivery. With a variety of machine models and configurations, we offer exceptional flexibility for both low and high-volume runs.

Our sliding head centres feature up to 13-axis machining and C-axis control on both main and sub-spindles, supporting highly intricate operations. Equipped with up to 80 cutting tools, including 14 driven tools, and high-pressure coolant systems reaching 2000 psi, these machines are engineered for efficiency, complexity, and repeatability. This enables our engineers to produce precision components—whether small, medium, or large batch runs—with uncompromising quality.
