TLS operates at the intersection of precision machining and mission-critical reliability. Our capabilities — 5-axis milling, CNC turning, precision grinding, and Zeiss CMM inspection — allow us to serve a diverse range of industries without compromise.
Cryogenic applications operate at extreme temperatures — liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen, and LNG environments that push both materials and machining to their limits. Dimensional stability and material selection are non-negotiable when components must maintain clearances at –320°F. TLS has extensive experience machining cryogenic-grade materials including 304/316 stainless steel, aluminum alloys, and specialized bronzes.
"Our precision grinding capability and CMM inspection are particularly critical here — thermal cycling means tolerances must be exact before installation."
- Impellers (open & closed)
- Inducers
- Pump shafts & shaft sleeves
- Wear rings (casing & impeller)
- Bearing housings & retainers
- Stuffing box & seal components
- Cylinders
- Balance discs & drums
Pump and fluid handling has been the foundation of TLS since 1973. We understand the unique demands of this industry — tight bore tolerances, precise shaft runout, and surface finish requirements that directly impact seal life and pump efficiency. From single-stage centrifugal pumps to high-pressure multistage configurations, we machine the components that keep fluid systems running reliably.
"We've been making pump components for over five decades. This isn't a secondary market for us — it's where we were built."
- Pump shafts & sleeves
- Impellers (turned & 5-axis milled)
- Wear rings & throat bushings
- Stuffing box components
- Pump housings & casings
- Bearing housings
- Mechanical seal components
Oil and gas demands components that perform under extreme pressure, abrasive media, and corrosive environments. From upstream drilling equipment to midstream pipeline systems and downstream refinery hardware, TLS provides precision-machined components that stand up to the harshest conditions in the energy sector. We work with high-alloy steels, Inconel, and duplex stainless regularly.
"Our full in-house capability — turning, milling, grinding, and CMM — shortens lead times on critical replacement parts when downtime is costly."
- Valve stems & bodies
- Choke components
- Pump plungers & pistons
- Manifold blocks
- Sealing surfaces & seats
- Drill collar components
- Wellhead hardware
Aerospace and defense components leave no room for error. TLS applies its most rigorous inspection and documentation protocols to parts destined for flight systems, ground support equipment, and defense platforms. Full material traceability, first-article inspection, and certificate of conformance are standard with every aerospace and defense order. We machine titanium, Inconel, hardened steels, and aerospace-grade aluminum to exacting standards.
"Our Zeiss CMM provides full dimensional reporting and first-article documentation to meet PPAP and AS9100-aligned quality requirements."
- Structural brackets & housings
- Actuator components
- Precision shafts & bushings
- Hydraulic manifolds
- Ground support tooling
- Custom fasteners & hardware
- Test fixture components
Industrial equipment encompasses the backbone of manufacturing — conveyors, compressors, presses, gearboxes, and the machinery that keeps production lines running. Repeatability and fast turnaround are often as important as tolerance in this segment. TLS handles both prototype development and production runs, with CNC lathes and mills capable of scaling from one-off replacement parts to multi-piece production quantities.
"When a production line is down waiting on a replacement part, our responsive quoting and scheduling get you back up fast."
- Gearbox shafts & housings
- Compressor components
- Conveyor drive components
- Cylinder bodies & rods
- Coupling hubs & adapters
- Bearing journals & races
- Custom tooling & fixturing
Some of the most demanding precision machining work doesn't happen in a refinery — it happens behind the scenes at world-class entertainment venues. TLS is one of a select few approved suppliers for one of the most recognized theme park destinations in the world, where ride systems, fluid handling, and mechanical infrastructure must perform flawlessly in front of millions of guests. The approval process is rigorous, and maintaining that status is a direct reflection of the consistency and quality TLS delivers on every order.
"When the world is watching, the part has to be right — no exceptions, no excuses. That standard shapes how we approach every job, for every customer."
