How long does the general delivery period usually take from placing an order to shipping?

Customized non-standard component processing. This depends on the complexity of the product. The general delivery period is usually between 2 and 4 weeks.

How to Choose a Swiss Machining and CNC Turning Supplier?

A supplier should explain why the process fits. Ask about machine range, operating mode, workholding, live tooling, back working, secondary processes, inspection, and controls for tool wear and stock variation. Do not select a supplier solely because “Swiss machining” appears on a capability list.

How to Calculate the Stamping Tooling Break-Even Point?

Compare two fully defined manufacturing routes: Break-even quantity = tooling investment ÷ (completed CNC unit cost − completed stamping unit cost) “Completed” matters. CNC cost should include material, setup, machining, tools, inspection, finishing, and packaging.

Is the CNC-Machined Part Suitable for Metal Stamping?

First determine whether the geometry can be produced from sheet or coil. Stamping cuts and forms flat stock, while machining removes material from a solid workpiece. Thick sections, enclosed features, or complex multi-plane geometry may not convert directly. Separate Stampable Features From Critical Machined Features Start with the stock form.

How to Move From a CNC Prototype to Stamped Production?

A CNC prototype validates function, but not necessarily stampability. Its drawing may contain sharp corners, variable thickness, or tight tolerances created around machining rather than forming. Freeze Requirements, Then Use DFM and First-Article Approval Before hard tooling, confirm material, thickness, interfaces, critical dimensions, finish, and drawing revision.
