Precision Machining

Dufrane now has full in-house machining capabilities which enables us to add value to our custom electromagnetic solutions – not only providing you with the highest quality windings and custom transformers to solve your power system challenges, but also providing you with a more complete product. Our machining capabilities have expanded, and we now offer the ability to be a stand-alone resource for precision machined parts.

Machining Center

Dufrane Technologies Machining Division is capable of machining a wide array of parts not just for our Electromagnetics customers, Dufrane Nuclear Shielding Customers, etc. – but also for other manufacturers who need affordable precision parts.

From custom low volume jobs – such as fixtures, prototypes and “one-off” development projects – up to high production jobs and custom lot sizes in between.

We have the ability to work with many different materials – including but not limited to plastics, aluminum, copper, brass and an assortment of different grades of steel.

Dufrane has a “project management” mentality, and we prefer to keep an open line of communication and transparency with our customers in order deliver a finished product that is precise, accurate and on time.
