Subcontract ATEX Manufacture – At ATAC, we have started offering subcontract CNC Machining, Milling, and Turning services for ATEX and Explosion Proof Components
We are now using our new fleet of Haas CNC machines for the purposes of providing subcontracting machining, milling, and turning services. For those who need to outsource the production of precision metal components to specialized ATEX manufacturers like ATAC, this is good news. Many subcontractors exist up and down the UK for CNC subcontract work, but we have a fine heritage in manufacturing ATEX-compliant components.
When specializing in ATEX and explosion-proof processes, any subcontractor must adhere to strict safety and quality standards for equipment intended for use in explosive atmospheres. ATEX regulations are a set of European Union directives that define standards for equipment used in environments with potentially explosive gases, vapours, or dust. Our own process analysers require ATEX certification, so we know exactly what is required.
Subcontract ATEX Manufacture – the Key Features of ATEX Specialized Machining
- Use of explosion-proof machinery and electrical components to minimize spark and ignition risks.
- Strict quality control protocols and certification to meet ATEX and IECEx compliance.
