Machined & Fabricated Components | Net shape manufacturing methods LOWER PART COST by reducing raw material usage. Compare methods and save!Request for Quote |
Machining Process  | Part shape is obtained by removing material through turning for round shapes, or milling for flat shapes. Turning is performed on horizontal lathes or screw machines. Milling is performed on vertical machining centers. |
Advantages of Machined Component Parts | - Excellent dimensional control and design flexibility
- Low cost tooling and fixtures
| - No draft angle requirements
|
 | Volume- Low to high (1 to 1,000,000+)
| Materials- Aluminum, brass, copper, stainless steel, and alloy steel
|
 | Applications- Anywhere tight tolerances are needed. Undercuts, grooves, & thin wall sections, are good candidates for machining from scratch, or from a near net shape "blank"
