Machined Mechanical Parts for the Defense Industry That Won’t Let You Down
When national security is on the line, there’s no room for “good enough.” At Buell Automatics, we manufacture machined mechanical parts for the defense industry that withstand the most austere environments, including extreme weather, shock, vibration, and water submersion.
Materials That Meet Military Specs
We work with metals that perform when it counts:
- Steel: For high-stress applications like vehicle suspension components.
- Stainless Steel: When corrosion resistance and strength are mandatory.
- Aluminum Alloys: For aerospace components where weight savings matter.
Every material lot is documented and traceable—because in defense work, paperwork is just as important as the part itself.


Inspection
Our quality process leaves nothing to chance:
- First-Article Inspection: Hard gauges and Vision Systems verify initial samples against blueprints.
- In-Process Checks: Operators measure critical features hourly using calibrated tools.
- Final Validation: Surface finish testers and optical comparators confirm every specification.
Security You Can Trust
In the defense industry, protecting sensitive information is a main priority; we take this responsibility seriously. Our Quality Management System (QMS) is ISO 9001:2015 certified and adheres to ITAR compliance, ensuring that all controlled technical data is handled in accordance with applicable regulations. In addition, we are actively pursuing CMMC Level 2 as part of our ongoing commitment to adhering to the changing requirements in the Department of Defense landscape.
