CNC Machining to Drawing

Turned and milled parts from your 2D drawing or 3D model, in aluminium, stainless, carbon steel, brass and engineering plastics. We review the drawing for manufacturability before quoting, because a quote on an unbuildable drawing wastes both sides' time.

CNC Machining to Drawing

How it runs

Five steps
01
Drawing review

Tolerance stack, datum scheme, surface finish and any feature the machine cannot reach. We come back with questions, not just a price.

02
Process route

Turning, milling, or turn-mill in one setup. The route changes both the price and the achievable tolerance.

03
Quote

Material, machining time, finishing, inspection and packing, itemised so you can see what drives the cost.

04
First article

A first-article inspection report against the drawing before the batch continues.

05
Production

Batch runs against the approved first article, with material certificates where the mill issues them.

Who does what

ToleranceGeneral tolerance unless the drawing calls it out. Critical features need a stated tolerance, not a hope.
MaterialWe quote the grade on the drawing. Substitution is offered as an option, never applied silently.
FinishAnodising, passivation, plating, powder coat and heat treatment are quoted as separate line items.

We will not quote ±0.005 mm because it sounds impressive. Achievable tolerance depends on the feature, the material and the setup, and we state what the factory can hold.

A drawing is the fastest way to a real price.

Send it with the quantity and the date you need it. We come back with a price, a lead time and any question the drawing raised.
