Swiss-Type Machining for Small-Diameter Precision Components
Long, thin, delicate turned parts are where Swiss-type machining earns its keep. Material feeds through a guide bushing so the cut always happens next to the support — keeping small diameters accurate, straight and beautifully finished.
Why equipment manufacturers choose us
Small diameters, real precision
Ø 0.5–20 mm with tight tolerances and surface finishes down to Ra 0.2 µm.
Stable on slender parts
Guide-bushing support keeps long, thin components accurate and chatter-free.
Documentation included
Dimensional reports, batch traceability and EN 10204 3.1 material certificates as standard.

Materials we machine
From Drawing to Delivered Part
A transparent, engineering-led process built for long-term supply programs — not one-off transactions.
Submit & Review
Send drawings and program context. Our engineers run a DFM review and flag tolerances, materials and risk before any cutting begins.
Quote & Material Plan
You receive a transparent quote plus a material-verification plan — grade, EN/DIN check and certificate strategy for your application.
Machine & Inspect
In-house precision machining, then Zeiss CMM dimensional inspection and spectrometer material verification on critical batches.
Deliver & Support
Kitted, ESD-safe or ISO Class 7 cleanroom packaging, with local engineering and after-sales support through our German partner.
Turned and shaft work
Below are examples of this kind of work held to our standard tolerance and finish. Dimensions, drawings and material certificates are available on request.
