Oil & Gas Industry
Aurora Technologies, Inc. specializes in custom machined plastics used in all segments of the Oil & Gas industry from the upstream, midstream, and downstream sectors – from 30% glass-filled PEEK to more basic UHMW and everything in between.
With unique capabilities including basic part punching to 5-axis tight tolerance fabrication better than 5 ten-thousandths, Aurora Technologies, Inc. provides components for the harshest offshore environments to downhole applications.
ATI is ISO 9001:2015, UL, AS9100, and ITAR Certified.
Plastic materials can help reduce weight, provider tighter tolerance capabilities, and reduce friction while offering higher compressive strength, better dimensional stability, and superior impact/wear resistance where metallic components can fail.
