Company Description

SMT specializes in precision machined components and assemblies primarily for the aircraft, aerospace, and defense industries.

We have 21 CNC machines, including 6 horizontal mills (3 of which are on a 23 pallet FMS and 1 has its own 6 pallet system), 1 high speed, 4-axis, vertical mill, 4 vertical mills with capability up to fifth axis positioning, and 8 lathes (some with live tooling). Our 2 most advanced CNC lathes are twin spindle, have twin Y axis turrets with live tooling, and are in a cell with a Fanuc robot.

Some of our niche capabilities include:

• Complex internal and external deburring and finishing under 10-40x magnification
• Process to create precision .0005" tolerance bores with less than 16 microfinish, and 11 sigma capability
• Precision surface treatment applications that eliminate the need for masking when parts require a combination of anodize and chemfilm, which results in clear and consistent edges every time.
