The most popular and cost efficient way for inner functional components. This is the finishing option with the fastest turnaround. If you opt for as-machined finishing, your parts may be left with visible tool marks and potentially sharp edges and burrs, but we can remove these upon request.

Whatever you need prototypes or production parts, our machining services will be your best choice. Contact us today to get your machining parts done in as fast as 5 days!
CNC Milling
CNC milling is a subtractive process that using 3-, 4-, & 5-axis milling machines with various of cutting tools to remove materials from solid plastic and metal blocks into final parts with different geometries as designed.
CNC Turning
CNC turning is a more efficient method to manufacture round shaped components from plastic and metal bars or tubes, such as shafts, worms. Combines with live tooling, milled geometries can be done in the meantime.
CNC Drilling
Drilling is the cutting process in which the workpiece does not move, making the cutter move, aligning the cutter center with the hole center, and making the cutter rotate. CNC Drilling is primarily done on CNC machines including CNC milling machines and lathes.
CNC Machining Materials & Finishes
We offer over 100 plastic and metal materials, and take great care to ensure the right material is used for every part. With a wide range of CNC machines, we are able to provide stand tolerance CNC machined parts with the most economic price and super precision machined parts for the high-end products.

Type II creates a corrosion-resistant finish. Parts can be anodized in different colors—clear, black, red, and blue are most common—and is usually associated with low silicone element series of aluminum. Type III is thicker and creates a wear-resistant layer in addition to the corrosion resistance seen with Type II.
Polishing is to make the surface smooth by physical friction processing, it is often used to prevent corrosion and remove oxidation. After polishing, the parts have a smoother and brighter finish.
Bead blasting is the process of spraying abrasive on the surface of parts under high pressure, after sandblasting, the metal parts have a satin texture or frosted surface, eliminating the processing marks.
Electropolishing is the reverse process of electroplating, which simplifies the metal surface at the micro-level through chemical solution. After electropolishing, metal parts can be more bright and reduce surface roughness.
The black oxide is a chemical conversion coating, it is produced by a chemical reaction between iron and oxide salt in black oxide solution. The corrosion resistance of parts can be improved after black oxidation.
