Medical Devices
CNC machining services produce intricate and accurate components for medical devices, such as surgical instruments and implants.
Electronics
CNC machining services produce precise components for electronics, such as circuit boards and connectors, with excellent electrical conductivity.
Swiss Lathe Capabilities
From small runs of a few hundred pieces up to hundreds of thousands, Swiss CNC machining allows designers to manufacture complex components on one machine. High-volume production runs with this machining can cover numerous processes, including, milling, threading, drilling, boring, turning, and other custom requirements. One machine can perform several operations at once in a shorter period of time while offering designers more control in the production of complex parts.
Swiss CNC machining can produce complex stainless steel parts from 0.030″ to 2″ in diameter parts. This allows designers to meet the unique specifications of even the most demanding applications.
Other metals, such as inconel, titanium, nickel and nickel-based alloys, can also be used to produce parts that require tight tolerances of ±0.0005 concentricity within 0.0001 inches.
Swiss machining allows micromachining of tiny parts that are more accurate, smaller and lighter – and faster. All of this allows Swiss machines to perform more complex machining operations than any other type of CNC machining system.
