Frequently Asked Questions
What material thickness or size range suits CNC Swiss Machining?
Turned the material parts are produced from bar or chuck stock across a wide diameter range.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Swiss Machining?
Achievable tolerances for CNC Swiss Machining depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Turning holds diameter tolerances to around ±0.005 mm with concentricity within 0.01 mm. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
What is CNC Swiss Machining and how is it done?
CNC Swiss Machining refers to swiss-type machining guides bar stock through a sliding headstock for high-accuracy small, slender parts. VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
Can VT machining make custom parts to my drawing?
Yes. CNC Swiss Machining is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
