CNC Cutting Services

APL operates a dedicated in-house CNC cutting facility, allowing us to cut, machine, and profile sheet materials entirely under our own control. This capability supports both the manufacture and refurbishment of formwork and other CNC projects, while also enabling fast turnaround for customer requirements.

By managing the CNC process internally, we maintain full control over accuracy, lead times, and quality, ensuring consistent and repeatable results across every component we produce.

CNC Cutting Capability

Our CNC facility provides precision cutting and machining for a range of materials and applications, including:

• CNC cutting and profiling of birch core, phenolic-faced plywood.
• CNC machining of plastic and aluminium sheet materials.
• Accurate, repeatable cutting across production and refurbishment runs.
• Support for wall, column, and slab formwork applications.
• Bespoke cutting patterns and batch production.
• Reduced lead times compared to outsourced CNC processing.

Applications

Our CNC cutting service is used across a wide range of formwork and temporary works applications, including:

• Refacing and repair of wall and column formwork panels.
• Slab formwork decking and shuttering.
• Machined plastic and aluminium sheets.
• Support for customer-supplied drawings and cutting requirements.

Integrated with Our Manufacturing & Refurbishment Services

CNC cutting forms a key part of our wider manufacturing and refurbishment capability, allowing us to deliver accurately machined components that are ready for installation or reuse within existing systems.

Whether supporting new manufacture, refurbishment, or bespoke customer requirements, our in-house CNC facility provides reliable quality, consistency, and programme certainty.
