Briefly explained
What Is CNC Turning and How Does It Work?
CNC turning is a precision machining process where a rotating workpiece—typically metal or plastic—is shaped by a computer-controlled cutting tool. This subtractive manufacturing method is essential in industries like aerospace, automotive, and medical device production.
Key CNC Turning Operations
Common operations include:
-
Facing
-
Grooving
-
Threading
-
Taper turning
These are ideal for making cylindrical parts with tight tolerances.
Modern CNC Turning Machines
Advanced CNC lathes feature multi-axis machining (up to 16 axes) and integrated milling tools. They can cut complex features like:
-
Hex shapes
-
Threads
-
Wrench flats
This reduces setup time and improves efficiency.
Why CNC Turning Is Trusted
CNC turning is:
-
Accurate and repeatable
-
Fast and cost-effective
-
Used in high-stakes industries
It’s a reliable choice for high-volume production or custom prototyping.

We may not be perfect, but our work is honest and results are true.

Swiss-Type CNC Turning: Precision Meets Automation
Swiss-type CNC turning is a highly advanced machining process designed for producing complex, high-precision parts—especially in industries like medical, aerospace, and electronics.
What Is Swiss-Type CNC Turning?
Originating in Switzerland and widely adopted in Japanese manufacturing, Swiss-type CNC lathes are known for:
-
Automatic feed systems
-
Up to 20 axes
-
6-sided cutting capabilities
These machines combine turning, milling, and drilling in a single setup, allowing for continuous, hands-off production of intricate components.
Benefits of Auto-Feed CNC Turning
Modern Swiss-type lathes use auto-feed mechanisms to:
-
Reduce manual intervention
-
Improve machining consistency
-
Increase cycle efficiency
-
Handle complex geometries and tight tolerances
This automation makes them ideal for high-volume production of small, detailed parts.
Trusted Technology in Precision Manufacturing
From real-world shop floor experience, Swiss-type turning has proven to be extremely reliable and versatile. Whether you're running medical implants, watch parts, or high-performance connectors, this technology delivers unmatched precision.

STEP (.stp, .step)
-
IGES (.igs, .iges)
-
DWG / DXF (2D drawings)
-
SolidWorks (.sldprt)
-
PDF (for dimensioned drawings)
For the most accurate quoting and machining, we recommend STEP files for 3D and PDFs for tolerances and notes.
Yes. We specialize in rapid prototyping and low-volume production, delivering high-precision parts with fast turnaround times. Whether you need a single prototype or a small batch, we tailor our CNC machining services to match your exact specifications.
PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone) and ceramics offer unique benefits for CNC turned parts:
-
PEEK: A high-performance plastic with excellent chemical resistance, mechanical strength, and thermal stability. It’s ideal for medical, aerospace, and electronic components requiring precision and durability.
-
Ceramics: Known for their extreme hardness, wear resistance, and insulation properties, ceramics are perfect for high-temperature, high-friction, and electrically insulating applications.
Both materials support long-lasting, high-precision components in demanding environments.
Yes. DMS is equipped to machine complex geometries and meet custom design requirements beyond standard specs. With advanced 3-axis to 5-axis CNC machining and a skilled engineering team, we handle tight tolerances, undercuts, multi-surface features, and intricate part designs with precision.

Hi Alice,
Just want to say your outstanding service is super impressive. Your great job on our stainless steel bending case makes our espresso coffee grinder added value. It really makes it look nice, super well done.

Aline Turner, SR procurement
Hi Alice,
We would like to say thank you to you Alice, DMS delivered our parts very fast with excellent quality that is what we are expecting, hopefully you will see our next order very soon, by the way Alice, please say hi to Jennifer for me.

Iris Joe, Engineering Designer
Dear Alice,
Now I can say it is a right decision to move our production from China to DMS, you guys are awesome, all the marine pads looks shinny no scratch founded, it is 8% more expensive compare to China but quality talks, we will keep buying more items from you for sure.
