Our Capabilities

CNC Turning Capabilities for Tempe Teams

Tempe is known for Arizona State University research campus and autonomous vehicle testing hub driving sensor and lidar hardware demand. We handle the precision machining these industries demand.

OD Turning

External profiles, steps, tapers, and chamfers. Clean surface finishes down to 16 Ra on critical diameters.

Most common

ID Boring

Internal bores, counterbores, and precision holes. Tight concentricity on bearing fits and seal surfaces.

Bearing fits

Live Tooling

Mill flats, cross-holes, and keyways without removing the part. Reduces setups and speeds delivery.

Mill + Turn

Swiss Turning

Small-diameter precision parts from 0.020" to 1.25". Perfect for medical pins, electronic contacts, and watch components.

High precision

Threading
