About Ocean Forge
Built by machinists. For the deep.
We are a precision machine shop with a singular focus: manufacturing the components that make autonomous underwater vehicles work.
Our story
Our story
Ocean Forge was founded by a father and son team who spent years building subsea systems and kept running into the same problem: finding a machine shop that truly understood the demands of undersea hardware.
Between them, they bring a depth of expertise that is simply unmatched. They have spent decades on the floor of high-precision aerospace and defense shops, developing an instinct for metal that only comes from a lifetime of cutting it.
Together, they built Ocean Forge to be the shop they always wished existed: one that speaks the language of subsea engineering, holds tolerances that matter, and treats every component as mission-critical. Because at 2,000 meters, it is.
Today we work with AUV manufacturers, defense prime contractors, and ocean research institutions across the country. Every part that leaves our floor is documented, inspected, and built to perform where it counts.
