PRECISION & TOLERANCES

Precision That Matches
Your Requirements

We review critical dimensions, fits, threads and feature relationships before machining begins, then apply the appropriate inspection method throughout production.

Drawing-Based Tolerances

Dimensions and acceptance criteria follow the approved drawing.

Critical Feature Control

Diameters, bores, threads and concentric features receive focused process control.

Documented Inspection

Inspection reports can be provided according to project needs.

Achievable tolerances depend on material, part size, geometry, feature depth and production volume.

SURFACE FINISHES

Finishing Options for
CNC Turned Parts

Improve appearance, corrosion resistance, wear performance or surface condition with finishing options selected for your material and application.

01

As Machined

Visible machining marks remain for functional parts that do not require an additional finish.

02

Anodizing

Adds corrosion and wear resistance to aluminum parts with natural or colored finish options.

03

Nickel & Zinc Plating

Provides a protective metallic coating for corrosion resistance, appearance or functional performance.

04

Passivation

Improves the corrosion resistance of stainless-steel components while maintaining their natural appearance.

05

Polishing

Reduces visible surface marks and creates a smoother or more reflective finish.
