Services
5 Axis CNC Machining
Our 5-axis CNC machining capabilities enable complex geometries with unmatched precision. Using DMG Mori DMU-75 monoBlock machines, we achieve simultaneous multi-axis operations with laser tool measurement and on-machine inspection. This technology reduces setup times while maintaining tight tolerances for aerospace, medical, and industrial components.
Drafting CAD CAM
We convert concepts into production-ready designs using advanced CAD/CAM software. Our engineers collaborate on part optimization, toolpath programming, and process simulation to ensure manufacturability. This integrated approach streamlines production from prototype to full-scale manufacturing while maintaining dimensional accuracy.
Finishing
Our finishing solutions include MIL-spec plating, Type 2 Anodize, and specialized coatings through certified partners. We coordinate these processes to meet exact specifications for corrosion resistance, wear protection, and aesthetic requirements while maintaining strict quality control throughout.
Inspection
We employ Mitutoyo digital micrometers, Tesa Magna Hite Varios, and on-machine probes for comprehensive quality assurance. Every component undergoes dimensional verification against original prints using calibrated equipment to guarantee conformance before shipment.
Precision Machining
Our precision machining services combine DMG Mori and CTX beta equipment for tight-tolerance parts. With high-speed spindles and automated tool changers, we produce complex components from metals and engineered plastics while maintaining 0.0002" accuracy across production runs.
