Swiss screw machining is a precision manufacturing process characterized by the removal of small amounts of material with a cutting or milling tool. Unlike traditional machining equipment, Swiss screw machines incorporate a guide bushing to reduce the distance between the tool and workpiece, reducing surface deflection and allowing the tool to operate with even greater accuracy.
Swiss Labs Machine & Engineering Inc. is a leading provider of precision CNC and Swiss screw machining services. Our renovated 10,000 square foot ISO 9001:2015 facility was established in 2014 in central Indiana. Using state-of-the-art machining technology and quality control processes, we produce ultra-high precision products from a wide range of materials.
Is Swiss Screw Machining Right for Your Application?
While it is not perfect for every application, Swiss screw machining offers superior results when used to create small and complex components.
Main Benefits
The primary benefits of Swiss screw machining include:
- Enhanced Versatility: Swiss screw machining can produce components that are difficult or expensive for more traditional methods, such as miniature screw machine parts with complex surface features and RF connectors.
- Wide Material Suitability: Swiss screw machining can create products from an assortment of materials, both metal and non-metal.
- Low Deflection: By maintaining a minimal distance between the tool and workpiece, Swiss screw machining allows for less surface deflection, resulting in enhanced accuracy within tighter tolerances.
- Greater High Volume Production Efficiency: Swiss screw machines are highly automated and require very little hands-on interaction once the job is set up.
- Cost Effective: Swiss screw machining produces components with a smooth surface that requires little or no secondary finishing.
- Variety of Cutting Tools: Swiss screw machines create the desired component by using a variety of tools to perform multiple operations within one machine.
- Greater Control: Cutting-edge CNC technology allows Swiss screw machines to produce exceptionally precise components within tight tolerances, while reducing the risk of production errors.
