Swiss-type CNC turning of small, long and slender parts from Ø1 mm to Ø32 mm — medical, dental, electronics, watch and aerospace components machined in one setup with sliding-headstock precision. Tight tolerances, mirror-like finishes, no fixed MOQ and DDP shipping to the USA, Germany, France, Italy and worldwide.
Swiss turning is the most cost-effective way to produce small, complex components — especially with high aspect ratios.
The sliding-headstock guides the bar right at the tool, eliminating deflection — Swiss machines hold tolerances that fixed-head lathes cannot reach on slender parts.
Main spindle, sub-spindle and live tooling turn, mill, drill, thread and cross-drill in a single cycle — shorter lead time, fewer fixtures, lower cost.
Parts up to 20× diameter in length, machined straight and true — long pins, shafts and cannulas without secondary operations.
Multi-spindle capability and short cycle times make Swiss turning the benchmark for serial small parts — quote-to-delivery stays fast even at high volumes.
What our Swiss-type CNC turning center produces — verified on calibrated gauges and CMM.

Repeatable quality, honest DFM feedback and on-time delivery for custom precision parts.
The DFM feedback caught a tolerance problem before we cut any tooling. First samples were within spec and the lead time was exactly as quoted.
Repeatable anodised aluminium housings from batch to batch, with EN 10204 3.1 certificates included. We now release them straight to the line.
Complex 5-axis parts were quoted in under a day and shipped DDP to our door. Communication was clear at every step.
