Precision CNC Machining for Lab Device Teams

Laboratory devices demand parts that are chemically resistant, dimensionally precise, and fully documented. A centrifuge rotor with imbalanced mass distribution is a safety hazard. A pipette manifold with inconsistent channel geometry produces unreliable assay results. We machine aluminum, 316L stainless, PEEK, and Delrin to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. Every order ships with CMM inspection reports, material certs, and documentation your quality team needs.

1

Chemical-Resistant Materials

We source and machine 316L stainless, PEEK, Delrin, Ultem, and anodized aluminum — all with full material certs and compatibility data for common laboratory reagents.

2

Tight Tolerances

We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on critical bore alignments, fluid channel cross-sections, and mating surfaces. Every part is CMM verified.

3

FDA-Ready Documentation

Dimensional inspection reports, material certs, and process documentation — everything your quality team needs for FDA 21 CFR 820 compliance and ISO 13485 systems.

Serving the US Laboratory Device Industry

The US clinical laboratory equipment market exceeds $22 billion, driven by increasing diagnostic testing volumes, automation of laboratory workflows, and development of point-of-care testing platforms.

From high-throughput immunoassay analyzers to benchtop PCR instruments, every lab device depends on precision-machined rotors, manifolds, and fixtures that perform reliably across thousands of test cycles.

Whether your team is developing a new diagnostic platform or scaling production on existing instruments, we ship anywhere in the US and give you instant AI pricing the moment you upload your file.

Beckman Coulter (Danaher)

Major manufacturer of clinical chemistry, immunoassay, and hematology analyzers. Their instruments require precision-machined sample handling components and fluid manifolds.

Thermo Fisher Scientific

World's largest scientific instrument company. Their laboratory equipment division requires machined centrifuge rotors, spectrophotometer cells, and sample handling fixtures.

Abbott Diagnostics

Leading manufacturer of in-vitro diagnostics systems. Their platforms require precision-machined reagent handling manifolds, sample transport fixtures, and detector housings.

Roche Diagnostics

Global leader in in-vitro diagnostics and tissue-based diagnostics. Their automated analyzers depend on precision-machined fluid handling components and sample carriers.

Built for Lab Device Teams
