In the defense industry, every component matters. From the smallest machined part to the most complex assembly, precision and compliance are non-negotiable. At AB Precision, we specialize in precision grinding and machining for defense applications - delivering mission-critical components that meet the highest standards of quality and ITAR compliance.
This post walks you through how we support U.S. defense manufacturing from concept to completion.
Step 1: Understanding the Mission
Every project begins with a clear understanding of the client’s needs. Whether it’s a prototype for a new weapons system or a production run of aerospace components, we work closely with defense contractors and OEMs to:
Review technical drawings and specifications
Identify ITAR-controlled elements
Establish and enhance compliance and security protocols to meet their needs
Step 2: Precision Grinding & Machining
Our core capabilities include:
Surface, Blanchard, creep feed, profile, and double disc grinding
High-precision machining for tight-tolerance parts
Complex geometries and multi-step processes
Material expertise including hardened steels, alloys, and exotic metals
We use advanced equipment and skilled technicians to ensure every part meets exacting standards - because in defense, there’s no room for error.
Step 3: ITAR Compliance & Secure Handling
As an ITAR-registered manufacturer, AB Precision ensures:
Secure handling of technical data and drawings
Controlled facility access and encrypted systems
Trained personnel in export control regulations
Full traceability and documentation for every part
We don’t just meet compliance requirements - we build them into every step of our process.
Step 4: Final Inspection & Delivery
Before any part leaves our facility, it undergoes:
Dimensional inspection using calibrated metrology tools
Surface finish and tolerance verification
Documentation review for ITAR and quality compliance
We deliver parts that are ready for integration - whether they’re headed to a testing lab, a production line, or the battlefield.
Final Thoughts
From blueprint to battlefield, AB Precision is a trusted partner in U.S. defense manufacturing. Our combination of precision grinding, tight-tolerance machining, and ITAR compliance ensures that every component we produce supports the mission - safely, securely, and reliably.
