What is reverse engineering and how can it help you?
Sometimes customers come to us with a part they want us to replicate. They don’t have the detailed drawings or spec we normally require, but they do have the existing component. In these cases we may be able to use reverse engineering to accurately recreate the part.
Why brass is good for machining
What’s so special about brass? And why does APT specialise in manufacturing precision brass turned components? In this article we reveal why brass is one of the most widely used and versatile materials to work with and why it machines so well.
