Precision Machining for Small Batch & Low Volume Production
At Regina Precision Engineering, we specialise in high-quality, small batch and low-volume manufacturing, giving our customers the flexibility to produce precision components without the need for large-scale commitments. Whether you’re validating a prototype, preparing for production, or manufacturing specialised parts in limited quantities, we deliver consistent, repeatable accuracy every time.
Small batch and low-volume production is central to our capability. We machine precise components in a wide range of materials, from engineering plastics to high-grade steels. With advanced technology and skilled engineers, we deliver consistent accuracy and dependable quality in every run.
Flexible, High-Precision Manufacturing
Our facility is designed to support clients who need short production runs while maintaining the same high standards of quality and precision expected in full-scale manufacturing. With CNC turning, milling, grinding and EDM capabilities in-house, we can produce complex, tight-tolerance components in small quantities with fast, dependable turnaround times.
Small batch production is ideal for:
-
Prototype validation
-
Pilot runs and pre-production batches
-
Specialist or bespoke component manufacturing
-
Low-demand parts for legacy products or equipment
-
Market testing before committing to full production volumes
Consistent Quality — Even in Small Quantities
-
Every component, whether one piece or one hundred, is manufactured with the same meticulous attention to detail. Our processes are set up to ensure:
-
High repeatability across all parts
-
Stable, consistent tolerances
-
Excellent surface finishes
-
Full traceability and inspection reporting where required
-
Efficient changeovers for multiple part variations
This ensures small runs meet the same standards as long-term production.
