    WHEN Lam Keng Yew's father first established the manufacturing business under the name of Onn Wah Engineering Works in 1961, there were only four workers and a few machines.

    Over the years, as the family business grew and the second generation took over, the company was renamed Onn Wah Precision Engineering. From a small business that focused on contract-based general ad hoc projects, Onn Wah is now a holding company consisting of four entities and over 250 employees.

    Onn Wah specialises in high-end computer numerical control (CNC) machining of medium-sized components. This is the process of using computer programmed machining tools to create products using precise specifications. Its complete suite of manufacturing expertise, including consignment and supply chain management, serves the oil and gas, aerospace and semiconductor industries.
