Prenco Manufacturing Ltd has been manufacturing precision-engineered components in Skibbereen, West Cork, since 1975. We are an independent, Irish-owned precision manufacturing company with a team of seasoned engineers and a modern facility behind us. From pressed and turned parts to complete ball transfer units, we build to your exact specification, quickly, and to a standard that's earned our name its reputation.



Our roots run deep. Prenco Manufacturing Ltd began in Skibbereen in 1975 as part of the German group Deutsche Star, later sitting within Bosch Rexroth. A management buyout in 2005 made us a private, Irish-owned business, and the Prenco name was born. Decades on, we are a precision manufacturing company trusted for quality and rapid turnaround. We hold ISO 9001:2015 for quality management and ISO 14001:2015 for environmental management, proof that our standards hold up to outside scrutiny.
Under one roof in Skibbereen, Prenco Manufacturing Ltd covers the full span of precision manufacturing. We are key producers of pressed, turned and milled parts. We also specialise in a wide range of complete Bosch Rexroth ball transfer units, capable of handling loads up to 25,000N at conveying speeds up to 2 m/s.
Our work runs end-to-end. CNC machining gives high-precision milling and turning for custom components. Design and prototyping support your research and development. Batch production scales from a handful of pieces to large volumes. Assembly and finishing carry each job through to completion. Our equipment backs that up: nine presses from 25 to 125 tonnes for metal pressing, and two CNC lathes turning to tolerances finer than ±10µm. Whatever the part, we make it to your specifications at a competitive price.
Choosing a manufacturing partner comes down to trust, and trust is built on a track record rather than a sales pitch. At Prenco Manufacturing Ltd, we have spent the most glorious part of fifty years earning a sterling reputation across Irish industry, one order at a time. Here's what sets our precision manufacturing apart from the field.
Modern equipment: We keep investing in our facility, adding machinery as demand grows, so your parts come off up-to-date equipment every time.
Proven expertise: Our engineering and R&D teams bring years of hands-on experience to complex, close-tolerance work, and they react fast when a brief shifts.
On-time delivery: We take pride in meeting tight production and inspection deadlines, because hitting the deadline matters as much as hitting the tolerance.
Add accredited quality systems to all of that, and you have a precision manufacturing company that treats every order, large or small, with the same attention to detail. That's the standard Prenco Manufacturing Ltd holds itself to on every project that comes through the door.

What is precision parts manufacturing?
Precision parts manufacturing is exacting work. At Prenco Manufacturing Ltd, we take raw material and turn it into components that perform exactly as they should — tight tolerances, controlled processes, built for applications where close enough simply is not good enough.
What are the methods of precision manufacturing?
We rely on CNC machining, precision turning, milling and metal pressing to hold consistent accuracy. Our precision manufacturing company picks the method that suits each component, then finishes and assembles in-house.
Which industries rely on precision manufacturing?
Medical devices, aerospace, automotive and electronics lean on precision manufacturing for safety and reliability. Prenco Manufacturing Ltd supplies these sectors, along with construction and industrial manufacturing, with precision-engineered parts built to spec.
How does a precision manufacturing company maintain accuracy?
A precision manufacturing company lives or dies by consistency. At Prenco, calibrated machinery and a rigorous ISO 9001:2015 quality system keep every batch within tolerances finer than ±10µm — because one out-of-spec part can compromise the whole assembly.
What materials does precision parts manufacturing use?
Precision parts manufacturing works with metals like aluminium, steel, stainless steel and alloys. Prenco Manufacturing Ltd presses, turns and machines these materials to produce precision-engineered components for a range of sectors.
