CNC Machined Forgings
Forgings and castings finish machined on a 5-axis CNC centre
What CNC Machined Forgings Is and Who It Is For
Our CNC machining centre includes a 5-axis machine and can manufacture big components. It is what turns a forging or a casting into a finished part on the same order, which is where the one stop shopping saves time and cost: forging or casting, heat treatment, machining and fabrication are scheduled as one job instead of four.
Key Benefits
- Complex features cut in one setup on the 5-axis machine
- Big components accepted rather than turned away on size
- Machining scheduled directly after heat treatment, which keeps parts straight
- One supplier responsible for the finished dimension

Who It Is For
- OEMs outsourcing the complete part
- Equipment builders without large machine capacity
- Buyers consolidating forging and machining suppliers
Problems It Solves
- Split supply chains lose weeks in transport and re-inspection
- Large parts exceed the capacity of most subcontract machine shops
- Machining before stress relief leaves parts that move after delivery
Technical Features
- 5-axis machining for big components
- Machining, heat treatment, fabrication and testing as value added services
- Parts machined for electrical properties, anodisation quality and dimensional stability in semiconductor work
- Fabrication and assembly available

How It Compares
Compared with buying a forging and subcontracting the machining yourself, the one stop route removes one transport leg, one inspection loop and the dispute about who owns the deviation.
Use Guide
- Send the finished drawing with datums and fits clearly marked
- Tell us which features are critical so they are cut last
- Confirm surface treatment requirements before machining starts

Questions Buyers Ask About CNC Machined Forgings
How big a part can you machine?
The CNC machining centre has a 5-axis machine and can manufacture big components.
Do you machine parts for semiconductor equipment?
Yes, forged parts for processing equipment with strict requirements for electrical properties, anodisation quality and dimensional stability on final machining.
Can machining be ordered with the forging?
Yes, that is the normal route: forging or casting, heat treatment, machining and fabrication in one order.
