01
CNC turning
For parts defined mainly by rotational features. Plan outer diameters, bores, shoulders and threads around the functional axis and mating surfaces.
Review: concentric relationships, runout, surface finish and workholding length.
CNC TURNING · SWISS MACHINING · MILL-TURNPrecision turning.
Precision turning.
Complex features, connected.
Custom machining for shafts, sleeves and components with threads, cross-holes or milled flats. Match the machining route to the geometry, material and assembly requirements.
01 / PRECISION TURNING
Three processes. One part-led decision.
Start with the finished geometry and functional interfaces. The final process depends on the drawing, material, stock and inspection requirements.
02
Swiss-type machining
A sliding-headstock route for slender, small-diameter parts. Guide support near the cutting zone helps control deflection; bar preparation and feature sequence are reviewed together.
Review: diameter-to-length relationship, guide support, stock condition and part-off features.
03
Mill-turn machining
Combine turning with milling or drilling when a part has both rotational and off-axis features. Where the geometry permits, fewer re-clamping steps help retain the relationship between features.
Review: angular orientation, tool access, feature alignment and setup changes.
02 / PRECISION TURNING
From a cylindrical profile to a complete interface
These common geometries help identify a suitable route; send the complete drawing for project-specific review.
Stepped shafts & pins
Diameters, shoulders, grooves and mating lengths.
DRAWING FOCUS
Diameter fits, axial dimensions and runout.
Sleeves & bushings
Inner and outer diameters, end faces and wall sections.
DRAWING FOCUS
Bore-to-OD relationship, end-face squareness and clamping distortion.
Threaded connectors
Threads, sealing faces, shoulders and cross-holes.
DRAWING FOCUS
Thread standard, effective length, sealing surface and burr control.
Combined turning & milling features
Cylindrical features with flats, slots or off-axis holes.
DRAWING FOCUS
Angular position, datum alignment and feature-to-feature relationships.
03 / PRECISION TURNING
Define the fit. Agree the inspection.
Control the features that determine how the part locates, rotates, seals or connects. Inspection follows the agreed drawing and final surface condition.
Include these details with your drawing
- Size & datums
- Overall length, maximum diameter, functional datums and critical tolerances.
- Threads & holes
- Thread standard and fit, effective depth, cross-hole position and edge requirements.
- Material & finish
- Material grade and condition, surface treatment, masking and final fit requirements.
- Quantity & delivery
- Order quantity, repeat demand, requested date and inspection records.
Machining dimensions, tolerances and delivery timing are confirmed against the actual part and process.

Questions before your first order
How do I choose between the three processes?
Start with diameter, length, rigidity and the combination of rotational and off-axis features. We review the route against the complete drawing rather than asking you to choose a machine.
Can all features be completed in one setup?
That depends on access, support, datum requirements and machine configuration. Reducing re-clamping is a process objective, not a promise for every part.
Can I start with prototypes?
Yes. Confirm first-piece inspection, drawing revision and approved features before arranging subsequent orders.
