A UK motorsport manufacturer turned to Penta Precision when project deadlines tightened and supplier reliability was critical. Our aluminium and plastic machining expertise ensured parts were delivered to exact specification—in just 5 days.
On 3rd January, we received an urgent enquiry from a motorsport customer for two-off quantities of three different parts. The initial requirement allowed for a 20-working-day turnaround.
Just days later, the project restraints changed. The customer now needed all parts in 7 days, leaving no margin for error. Previous suppliers had already let them down with late deliveries and poor quality, so confidence and reliability were essential.
Production began immediately, and all components were completed and delivered within just 5 days—faster than the revised deadline. The customer was delighted with both the speed and the quality of the parts, and has since continued to place further orders with Penta.

Additive and subtractive manufacturing are two of the most important methods used to create parts today. As technology advances, more businesses are comparing these approaches to find the best fit for their projects. The choice you make can influence your lead times, costs, and design flexibility. In this guide, you'll learn how these manufacturing methods differ and when to use each one.
