Overview

Precision milling and turning for prototypes through production volumes, in aluminum, steel, titanium, brass and engineering plastics. The work runs through a 10,000 m² facility in Dongguan with 200+ machines, and every job gets the same engineering review before it is quoted.

What's included

  • Engineer-reviewed DFM feedback before quoting
  • 3, 4, and 5-axis milling and turning
  • First article inspection available on request
  • Surface finishing: anodizing, powder coating, bead blasting

FAQ

CNC machining questions

What's your typical lead time for CNC parts?

Typically 10–20 days for CNC orders, depending on complexity, material, finishing and inspection requirements. Exact timing is confirmed with your quote.

What tolerances can you hold?

±0.003mm on standard CNC work, down to ±0.001mm on ground features. Tolerances vary by material and geometry, and are confirmed against your drawing.

What materials do you machine?

Aluminum, steel, titanium, brass, copper, and engineering plastics including Delrin, Nylon, PEEK, ABS, PTFE, and PMMA/PC. Full list on our Materials & Finishes page.

Can you handle complex 5-axis geometry?

Yes. Our 5-axis machines cut complex, multi-sided geometry in a single setup, reducing the number of operations — and the error that comes with repeated 3-axis setups.

Do you provide inspection reports?

Yes. First article and final inspection are available on every order, with dimensional reports and material certs included.

Can I get an NDA before sending my drawing?

Yes. Ask for our NDA before you send anything and we'll get it signed first. We don't send one unprompted, so ask if you need it in place.

What file formats do you accept?

STEP, IGES, SLDPRT, and DXF cover most quotes. Send what you have and we'll flag anything that needs re-exporting.

Case studies

Documented production work

25 CT collimator shafts for Mediso Medical Imaging Systems, machined in 40CrMnMoS8-6 steel. The program ran as five samples then a remaining batch, drawn to 0.005 mm radial runout with laser hardening to 52 ± 2 HRC on the thread-grinding surface, and a go/no-go thread gauge check recorded in our own inspection documentation before release.
