Our lathe and mill operations are the backbone of our company and accomplished by our well-trained and experienced machinists.
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines are used to precisely machine material into desired forms. Repairs or single part manufacturing can sometimes be done faster on a manual machine.
We have a wide assortment of CNC and manual machines designed for long-term accuracy and superior surface finishes, bore sizes and lengths.
Orion Machining and Design owns and operates multiple CNC lathes with the larger lathes having a capacity of 30” diameter turning capacity to a 44” length and a through spindle bore capacity of up to 7”.
The smaller and faster machines can turn 14” diameter parts up to a length of up to 24” long and have up to a 4 ½” through spindle bore.
Orion Machining and Design is able to mill large and small parts because of the variety of machines available in the Lloydminster Facility.
The largest mill has a milling window of 64 Inches on X Axis, 32 inches on Y Axis, and 30 inches on Z Axis and a rotary axis that has a through bore of 7 ½”.
The smallest mill has a milling window of 16 Inches on X Axis, 12 inches on Y Axis, and 10 inches on Z Axis and a rotary axis that has a through bore of 1 1/4”
