CNC machining, which stands for Computer Numerical Control machining, involves the
automated removal of material from raw stock based on computer-generated instructions.
This versatile process can be applied to nearly any material, ranging from expanded polyurethane
foam to nickel superalloys.
Common applications of CNC machining include the fabrication of parts for various industries,
ornamental furniture, and the production of turbine blades.
The cost associated with CNC machining is heavily influenced by factors such as required precision,
surface quality, quantity, material composition, and the overall complexity of the part.

We can accept most of the 3D file formats like SolidWorks (.sldprt)/ ProE(.prt) / IGES(.igs) /
STEP (.stp). We can also use 2D drawing (.pdf) or AutoCAD (.dwg) for quote against the parts
with simple structure.
All the other files formats are not listed above but can be read in AutoCAD/ProE/SolidWorks/ will be
also fine for us.
3. Do you offer reverse engineering services or suggest cost saving measures?
We offer reverse engineering services, allowing us to extract design and engineering information
from a wide range of manufactured components. Our expertise goes beyond mere reproduction
– we can aid in designing your part, recommending optimal raw materials, and selecting the most
efficient machining protocols and finishing steps.
With the end-use of the part in focus, we often identify minor design adjustments, material changes,
or tolerance modifications that can potentially reduce the cost of your part without compromising
quality or performance.
4. Do you offer other services, like finishing, assembly, packaging, and logistical support?
From finishing processes to logistical support, we offer a complete suite of services to efficiently
and cost-effectively bring your parts from inception to completion.
Our capabilities encompass anodizing, plating, grinding, finishing, assembly, warehousing,
packaging, and just-in-time delivery. Our aim is to provide a one-stop, hassle-free production
process, allowing you to save time and money while concentrating on your core business.
