Machining & Engineering in Katherine
Precision machining and component manufacturing for industrial applications — shafts, flanges, bushings and custom parts.
Engineered components, machined to spec
Humpty Doo Welding and Fabrication delivers machining & engineering across Katherine and the Northern Territory. Katherine's pastoral, civil and RAAF Tindal operations need durable repairs and fabrication that hold up to hard outback use. We mobilise from our Humpty Doo base with fully-equipped rigs, bringing the same coded welding and fabrication standards to Katherine that we are known for Territory-wide.
Our machine shop turns, mills, bores and drills steel and alloy components to precise tolerances — shafts, flanges, bushings, pins and bespoke parts. We recondition worn components and reverse-engineer obsolete parts to keep your plant running.
From a single breakdown component to a batch production run, work is delivered to spec with fast turnaround when you're down. Pair it with our fabrication and welding for a complete engineered solution.

Welding & fabrication in Katherine, NT
Katherine sits at the crossroads of the Stuart and Victoria Highways and is anchored by RAAF Base Tindal, now in the middle of a major Defence-funded expansion. Around it sit large pastoral stations, civil contractors and an agricultural sector that all run hard equipment in unforgiving conditions.
We mobilise crews, rigs and machining capacity down the highway for planned fabrication and on-site breakdown repair. Outback dust, heat and heavy use demand durable welds and hardfacing that last — that's what we build to.
