Custom CNC Swiss Screw Machining Services

Swiss screw machines use a moving headstock to feed material through a guide bushing. This unique approach allows the cutting tool to work close to the bushing support, minimizing deflection and vibration. Unlike conventional CNC turning, Swiss machining maintains exceptional stability even with small-diameter workpieces, resulting in superior precision and surface finish.

Swiss machining is ideal for producción de gran volumen of small, intricate precision components. The machining capabilities of Swiss turn technology ensure accuracy and efficiency. Industries needing CNC machining services for medical, aerospace, or electronics benefit greatly. Póngase en contacto con nosotros to request a quote for Swiss machining services today.

Swiss screw machining is not ideal for large, simple parts needing CNC milling. Low-volume production may not justify the cost of Swiss CNC machines. If parts don’t require extreme precision, a standard machine shop is better. High-volume needs with loose tolerances may favor other CNC machining processes instead.

Swiss machining is ideal for small, complex parts requiring tight tolerances. It excels at producing components under 32mm in diameter with intricate features, especially those with length-to-diameter ratios greater than 3:1. Parts with multiple features that would traditionally require several setups can be machined efficiently in one operation using Swiss machining technology.

Our Swiss CNC machines can process a wide range of materials, including acero inoxidable, aluminio, latón, titanio, and various aleaciones. We can also machine certain plastics and exotic materials depending on your specific requirements. Material selection depends on your application’s performance needs and environmental conditions.

Our Swiss screw machining services can consistently achieve tolerances as tight as ±0.0001 inches (±0.0025mm). This exceptional precision makes Swiss machining ideal for applications where exact dimensions are critical, such as medical devices, aerospace components, and precision instruments.

The primary difference is the workpiece support system. In Swiss machining, the material is fed through a guide bushing that supports it close to the cutting tool, minimizing deflection. Conventional turning holds the workpiece at one or both ends, making it more susceptible to deflection, especially with longer, smaller diameter parts. Swiss machines can also perform multiple operations in one setup, including fresado, cross-drilling, and threading.

While Swiss machining setup costs may be higher than conventional machining, the process becomes very cost-effective for medium to high-volume production runs. The ability to complete parts in a single setup reduces handling costs, while the faster cycle times and reduced secondary operations lower the per-part cost. For complex parts produced in volume, Swiss machining often provides the best value.

Lead times vary based on part complexity, material availability, and order quantity. Simple parts can be produced in 1-2 weeks, while more complex components may require 3-4 weeks. Producción de gran volumen runs are typically scheduled according to your specific delivery requirements. For urgent needs, we offer rapid machining services with expedited turnaround times.
