J.R. GILBERT ENGINEERING LIMITED

Founded in 1983, JR Gilbert Engineering offers precision and general engineering to a variety of industries throughout the UK and Ireland. We have an extensive range of engineering services including : 3 Axis CNC Machining, 5 Axis CNC Machining, Gear Cutting, Surface Grinding, Boring, Slotting, Fabrication & Welding, CAD/CAM Services, Conventional Machining and Waterjet Cutting. We are proud to be one of the largest CNC manufacturing companies in South Wales.

At the start of 2023, we took possession of another 10,000 Sq Ft building attached to our existing 10,000 Sq Ft on our Oakdale Site. In the last 6 months we have added a Large Dugard 2200x1000x1000 CNC milling machine to our capacity list and have just taken delivery of a Mazak 35Y CNC Lathe (Capable of turning  550 Ø x 1500mm). All of this, coupled with having bought another Bridgeport CNC machine and an OMAX Precision Waterjet Cutter within the last 18 months, demonstrates our vision in investing into the business to help us grow forward along with the manufacturing industry.

Having all these services in-house and under one roof, Gilbert Engineering is well placed to meet the high demands of the manufacturing sector.  With a commitment to high-quality manufacturing, we adhere to ISO9001:2015 standards, ensuring all components are meticulously manufactured and inspected. From bespoke machines, one off components, repairs to existing equipment, custom gears and batch runs, we can do it all.

 

  1. Straight and Bevel Gear Manufacture

    Straight and Bevel Gear Manufacture

     

    JR Gilbert Engineering has an extensive range of gear cutters for the manufacture of precision gears, worms and wheels, racks and pinions, spur and helical gears, straight and bevel gears, internal and external splines and keyways. From the manufacture of large gears for cranes and heavy machinery to much smaller gears for gear boxes and machine repair. All our products are in accordance with the ISO 9001:2015 standard ensuring they are inspected at every stage of the manufacturing process and are delivered at the highest quality

  2. Sub Contract Precision Machining

    Sub Contract Precision Machining

    Gilbert Engineering aim to provide a complete precision machining service and are able to supply prototype and low to medium volume machined metal or plastic components. We recognise that more and more of our customers want to minimise the number of vendors they have to deal with / simplify their supply chain. With the variety of services Gilbert Engineering offer we believe we can be a one stop shop for your components.

  3. Surface Grinding

    Surface Grinding

    Being one of the largest precision surface grinding facilities in South Wales we are able to grind a variety of materials cylindrically, both externally and internally to required dimensions (microns). Our large surface grinder can grind plates as large as 3000mm x 1300mm and will hold tolerances of 0.05mm flat and 0.0125mm parallel.

  4. TIG Welding

    TIG Welding

    We provide extensive coded welding and fabrication services at JR Gilbert Engineering. Our services include :

    1. MIG Welding
    2. TIG Welding
    3. Stick Welding
    4. Arc Welding
  5. Waterjet Cutting

    Waterjet Cutting

    Being proud owners of a 3 Axis OMAX Maxiem Waterjet Cutter, we can water cut almost any material with very high precision. The advantages we gain from water cutting are that it allows less material wastage than machining and that the properties of the material are not affected, as it is a cold-cutting process.

  7. Waterjet Profiling

    Waterjet Profiling

     

    With our 3-axis CNC Abrasive Water Cutting Machine, we can water cut profiles for our customers. Profiling could be very useful as it could help in reducing CNC milling lead times as they can then be finish machined or to even help reduce material costs.

  8. Worm and Wheel Gear Manufacture

    Worm and Wheel Gear Manufacture
