Capabilities / CNC turning

Precision CNC turning

Precision lathes with milling capability, turning diameters up to 13.77″.

What we turn

Round parts, done complete

Diameters, bores, grooves and threads, plus the milled features that usually mean a second machine.

01

Precision turning

Close-tolerance diameters, bores, faces, grooves and threads on round and near-round parts.

02

Milling on the lathe

Cross holes, flats, slots and bolt patterns machined in the same setup as the turned features.

03

Prototype to production

One development piece or a recurring production release, run under the same process controls.

Why it matters

One setup protects the part

When a turned part also needs holes, flats or slots, moving it to a mill means a second setup and a second chance for features to drift out of relationship.

Lathes with milling capability let us cut those features while the part is still held on its turned centerline, so concentricity and position are built in, and the part spends less time waiting between machines.

Larger prismatic work goes to our 3- and 4-axis mills.

Quoting a turned part

What to send us

To quote accurately we need:

1. The print as a PDF, at the current revision.
2. Quantity, including any price breaks you want to see.
3. Material and finish requirements, if not on the drawing.
4. Required delivery date and any documentation your program calls for.

Tell us what you’re building.

Send the print and we will tell you quickly whether it fits our lathes.
