Precision Machining

CNC and conventional machining for new components, replacement parts, prototypes, tooling, repair work, and difficult-to-source parts.

A job can start with a drawing, model, photos, a sample, a worn part, or the surrounding assembly. Bring what you have, and we can begin with the information available.

New parts, replacement parts, and repair work

One-off and low-volume jobs can begin with a drawing, model, sample, damaged component, or complete assembly.

  • Custom components
  • Replacement parts
  • Shafts, pins, bushings & sleeves
  • Tooling & fixtures
  • Prototype components
  • Equipment parts
  • Machined fabrications
  • One-off & low-volume work

Machine shop equipment

CNC and conventional machines

We choose the machine and setup based on the part, material, geometry, quantity, and required result.

View Facility & Equipment

Turning · milling · CNC + conventional

Choose the machine from the part

Turning

Shafts, pins, sleeves, bushings, threads, repair parts, and replacements. The setup may start with raw stock or the worn part that came off the machine.

Milling

Faces, pockets, slots, hole patterns, mounting features, contours, fixtures, and tooling. Milling may be the whole job or one step in a fabricated assembly.

CNC + conventional

CNC supports repeat work and complex geometry. Conventional machines handle repairs, one-offs, unusual setups, and modifications. We choose the machine from the part, quantity, and required result.

Milling

Cutting defined features

Faces, profiles, slots, holes, and other features taking shape.

When the part is not on the shelf

Sometimes the broken part is the best place to start

When a replacement part is obsolete or unavailable, the worn component and surrounding assembly give us a place to start. We look at how the part fits, what it does, and where it failed.

From there, we can determine whether to repair the component, machine a replacement, or modify another part. The right path depends on the condition of the part and the equipment around it.

Selected machining projects

Replacement parts, repair machining, and custom components

These jobs started with unavailable parts, worn components, or equipment that needed a practical machining path.

Connected shop processes

Machining may be one step in the job

A project may move through CAD, 3D scanning, machining, fabrication, welding, cutting and forming, 3D printing, or finishing. Keeping that work in one shop makes the connections between parts easier to manage.

One shop can carry the part through the next operation

How we approach the work

Set up the job so problems are visible

3S, standard work, and job-defined checks help the machinist catch a problem before it travels to the next operation. Setup notes, inspection points, and handoffs matter alongside the machine itself.

How we work ↗
  1. Organized work
  2. Repeatable processes
  3. Problems made visible
  4. Quality checked throughout the job
  5. Continuous improvement
