Capabilities
CNC machining, from geometry to detail.
Explore the processes relevant to your component and the information needed to assess a quotation. Equipment, achievable features and delivery dates are confirmed for each project.
01 / CNC milling
Pockets. Profiles. Mating faces.
Milling uses a rotating cutting tool to remove material from a workpiece. It is commonly used for housings, brackets, plates, pockets and machined faces. Tool access, internal corners and the depth of a feature influence how a part can be made.
- Provide overall dimensions and the latest model revision.
- Call out threads, datums, surface finish and critical tolerances.
- Identify any faces that must remain free of clamp marks.
02 / CNC turning
Designed around an axis.
Turning removes material from a rotating workpiece. Shafts, bushings, sleeves and spacers often use this process. Parts with additional off-axis features may require further operations.
- Specify diameters, lengths and mating fits.
- Define threads, grooves, bore depths and edge breaks.
- Identify concentricity or runout requirements on the drawing.
03 / Surface & assembly
Specify the finished condition.
A finish can affect appearance, fit and the dimensions of a component. If you need anodizing, plating, bead blasting, deburring or assembly, include the exact requirement for review. Process availability and responsibility must be confirmed in the quotation.
- State the finish specification and colour, where applicable.
- Mark surfaces that must be masked or remain uncoated.
- Supply an assembly drawing and bill of materials for multi-part work.
Useful answers
Before you send a drawing.
What is your maximum part size?
Send the overall part dimensions and model for review. This site does not publish a verified machine envelope or guarantee that every size can be accommodated.
Should every dimension use the tightest tolerance?
Apply tolerances according to function. Clearly identify critical features; unnecessarily restrictive requirements can increase machining and inspection work.
