Precision CNC Machining for Medical Teams

Medical device companies need parts that are biocompatible, precisely toleranced, and fully documented. An implant component that's off by a few tenths can fail regulatory review — or worse. We machine Ti-6Al-4V, 316L stainless steel, PEEK, and cobalt-chrome to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches using clean machining practices. Every order ships with CMM inspection reports, material certs, and documentation your quality team can use for FDA submissions.

1

Biocompatible Materials

We source and machine Ti-6Al-4V, 316L SS, PEEK, and cobalt-chrome — all with full material certs and lot traceability for regulatory compliance.

2

Tight Tolerances

We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on critical mating surfaces, bore diameters, and implant interfaces. Every part is CMM verified.

3

FDA-Ready Documentation

Dimensional inspection reports, material certs, process records — whatever your Design History File and regulatory submissions require.

Built for Medical Device Teams

Medical parts need a shop that takes biocompatibility and documentation as seriously as machining.

Biocompatible Materials

We machine Ti-6Al-4V, 316L stainless, PEEK, and cobalt-chrome with clean machining practices and dedicated tooling. Full material certs and lot traceability on every order.

CMM Inspection

We verify every critical dimension before shipping. CMM reports go with every part — so your quality team has the data they need for regulatory review.

FDA-Ready Docs

Every medical device order ships with dimensional inspection reports, material certifications, and process records. Our documentation supports 510(k) submissions and Design History Files.

Fast Response

Your V&V schedule doesn't wait. Medical device prototype parts in 3 to 7 days so your development program keeps moving toward submission.
