High Precision Calibrated.
All our machines are high-precision calibrated using a Renishaw laser to ensure exceptional accuracy. We then verify this calibration and all alignments with the Renishaw Ballbar system, which checks the machine while it performs a circular move in two axes.

Accuracy
Accuracy is of utmost importance at Ajax. We are one of the few companies in the UK equipped with a Renishaw XL80 laser measurement machine, which can measure movement to within a nanometre—equivalent to a thousandth of a micron or a millionth of a millimetre. We utilize this precise data to calibrate machines to exceptionally high standards of accuracy. If needed, we can perform this calibration on-site and offer annual recalibrations to maintain your machine’s accuracy. Our typical results achieve an accuracy of less than ±0.002 across the entire working envelope, while many of our competitors exceed this tolerance and are unable to test or verify their accuracy.
Process
Machining processes can be performed at high speeds while maintaining reliable repeatability and quality. All models are built on cast columns and bases to eliminate vibration and enhance cutting finish. Rigid tapping is standard. The random tool changer utilizes an air blast to clean the spindle before the next tool enters, and the air blast is also used to clean the workpiece during machining.
Controls
Thus, bringing together the perfect balance of quality, reliability, and price, Ajax collaborates with Fanuc to install the Fanuc 0i MF Plus control. This system includes the option for Manual Guide i, making it easy to program in conversational form.
Heidenhain with options of the TNC320 base level analogue control or the TNC620 & 640 controls, they all have the same programming language with the TNC640 having replaced the TNC530 as the Heidenhain flagship control.
Siemens 828D and 840D are both available with the option of shopmill conversational software.
Fagor 8058 elite & 8060 conversational controls are also available.
Ajax milling around the world.
Delivery & Installation
Our delivery companies can deliver your machine and offload it with a variety of ways. Then either drive it in with a versa lift or skate it in to position. Then once its there our fully trained engineers will level and commission it. Once this is done we will train you in its operation.
