Swiss Turn Machining Services

At Tri Part, we specialize in precision Swiss screw machining, expertly crafting Swiss-turned parts and products with impressive accuracy. Our capabilities include maintaining tolerances of as low as ±0.0005”(±0.013mm). Particular machines are equipped with advanced 11-axis control, twin spindle, and 4-axis backworking. This expansive range of functions allows us to machine a variety of features and components with remarkable speed and efficiency.
Through the latest technology in horizontal turning centers, we provide our customers with high precision Swiss manufacturing. We deploy 13 separate Swiss machines modified with advanced capabilities, making us one of the state’s most prominent Swiss vendors.

Swiss Turn Machining Capabilities

Tri Part’s wide assortment of Swiss turning centers provide unrivaled quality and flexibility. Our Citizen L32/38 9-axis swiss machine with 1.375” (up to 38mm) capacity turning centers incorporate a programmable B-axis for angled drilling and milling. Our machines also have circular interpolation milling and engraving capabilities. We have upgraded machines with sophisticated LFV (Low-Friction Vibration) technology to improve accuracy and eliminate chip issues.
Our 20mm citizen swiss lathes have been loaded with optional upgrades as well. Parts that required multiple operations elsewhere can be run complete at Tri-Part. Ease of changeovers has resulted in smaller lot capabilities and reductions of in-process inventories, allowing for more cost-effective smaller quantity and prototype orders.

Swiss Turn Machining Benefits

Swiss turning machines offer significant advantages in precision manufacturing, particularly for producing complex, high-quality parts. Swiss machines excel due to their unique operating principle, where the workpiece is fed through a guide bushing and the cutting tools move along multiple axes to perform machining operations. This setup allows for extremely accurate control of the cutting process, resulting in high precision, tight tolerances, and intricate geometries. The Swiss turning machine’s ability to handle multi-axis work and perform simultaneous operations, such as turning, drilling, and milling, makes them ideal for producing small, complex components. High-speed capabilities and consistent quality are also Swiss staples that make these efficient machines across large production runs.
