Our Technical Capabilities
CNC Milling
CNC milling machines excel at handling geometric designs and meeting rapid production needs. Our CNC prototyping services feature both 3-axis and 5-axis milling capabilities.
CNC Turning
CNC turning involves using an automated lathe to shape a rotating workpiece. This process is ideal for creating rounded or cylindrical geometries.
CNC Drilling
CNC drilling is a process in which an automated machine creates precise holes in a workpiece. Drilling is essential for achieving accurate and consistent hole patterns in various materials.
CNC Grinding
CNC grinding is a process in which a computer-controlled grinding wheel removes material from a workpiece. Grinding is useful for achieving high precision and smooth surface finishes on both flat and cylindrical geometries.
CNC Threading
CNC threading is a process in which an automated machine precisely cuts threads into a workpiece. Threading is essential for creating screw threads and is useful for components that require fastening capabilities.
