Key Machining Capabilities


Facing Operations
Performs end-face machining on both sides of shafts, bushings, and cylindrical components.


Outer Diameter Turning
Processes external cylindrical surfaces for stepped or straight profiles.


Internal Boring
Machines internal holes and bores from one or both ends depending on part design.


Drilling
Creates axial holes and center holes on rotational components.


Thread Cutting
Produces internal or external threads for mechanical assembly applications.


Groove Machining
Cuts grooves, reliefs, and retaining ring slots on turned components.
