Precision CNC Machining for Consumer Electronics Teams

Precision CNC machining for consumer electronics teams — aluminum unibody enclosures, heat management components, and cosmetic finishes that meet the visual and functional standards your products demand. We machine aluminum 6061, 7075, brass, copper, and stainless steel to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. Every order ships with CMM inspection reports, material certs, and surfaces ready for anodizing.

1

Cosmetic-Grade Materials

We machine aluminum 6061-T6, 7075-T6, brass, copper, and stainless steel. Every surface is machined to cosmetic standards, ready for anodizing, bead blast, or brushed finishes.

2

Tight Tolerances

We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on snap-fit interfaces, button bores, and mating surfaces. Every part is CMM verified before shipping.

3

Production-Ready Quality

Dimensional inspection reports, material certs, and RoHS compliance documentation. Everything your product and quality teams need from prototype through production.

Built for Consumer Electronics Teams

Products your customers hold in their hands need a shop that cares about surface finish as much as tolerances.

Cosmetic Finish Expertise

We deliver surfaces that are ready for anodizing, bead blast, or brushed finishes. Ra 0.8 or better on cosmetic faces. Your enclosures look the way your design team intended.

CMM Inspection

Every critical dimension is verified before shipping. Your receiving team gets a documented inspection report — no guessing, no shortcuts.

Prototype to Production

We lock in your process during prototyping so the jump to 500 or 5,000 parts is seamless. Same tolerances, same finishes, same quality documentation every time.

Fast Response

Upload your file and get a response fast. Consumer electronics prototypes in 3–5 days. We communicate directly — no layers of sales reps between you and the shop floor.
