If you can imagine it, Kennewell CNC Machining can manufacture it
The team at this manufacturing firm produces precision parts right here in Australia’s Murraylands, and they want to hear from you.

This sponsored story is brought to you by Kennewell.
If you can imagine it, Kennewell can make it.
Inside the company’s unassuming Murray Bridge workshop, high-tech robots and machines manufacture anything you might think of, from products for the defence and mining industries right down to herb grinders and four-wheel-drive suspension.
It’s why this CNC machining firm is able to go toe-to-toe with manufacturers around the world, for both quality and price, while remaining one of the best-kept secrets in local business.
And it’s why managing director Brett Kennewell and his team want to hear from you.
If you’ve got an oddly specific problem you need to solve, and can imagine a part or machine that will solve it, Kennewell can manufacture it.
If you need a replacement part for something, but don't know where to source it, Kennewell can mechanically reverse-engineer it and have a new one 3D printed, machined or laser cut.
“We want to find people who have ideas for products, but don’t know how to make them,” Brett says.
“People don’t know what we can do here.
“We can make things here – we can compete with China.”

Rather than one-off jobs, though, Brett encourages you to think bigger.
If you’re willing to pay for a solution to your problem, might others be willing to do the same?
You could be sitting on a lucrative business idea without realising it.
Kennewell can partner with you to make it happen.
“I want to inspire people to have a side business,” Brett says.
“If you have an idea for your hobby, sport, special interest or job, instead of waiting for a part from overseas, make your own.
“Tell us what you need, we can machine it and make it and you can have your own product.”
Precision parts, Australian made
Quality is Kennewell’s north star, whether you’re a new client or need an existing product manufactured to a higher standard.
Brett’s passion for every aspect of the business is evident whenever he speaks.
“You might be getting a product made by a machine shop, but not be happy with the service, or the price, or the timing,” Brett says.
“We can make it look beautiful, straight off the machine.”
