Swiss Lathe Processing Capability

The Swiss lathes of TOP Prototype adopt a dual-axis arrangement of tools.

By shortening the tool exchange time between the gang tool and the opposite tool post, the processing cycle time is significantly saved.
The functions of overlapping multiple tool posts and effective axis movement overlapping of thread chips are realized, reducing labor costs and defective products in the production process.

It can be used to produce large quantities of precision shaft parts.
The parts are mostly applied in medical equipment, optical equipment, needles, shafts, timers, aerospace components, etc.

Swiss Lathe Machining Materials

According to your needs, you can strictly select from more than 50 types of materials that meet production standards.  Our five-axis milling service is applicable to various materials from metals to plastics.
Please take a look at the Swiss Lathe machining material list. You are also welcome to contact us to discuss your personal needs.

MaterialsDescription
Aluminum testAluminumAluminum has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio among these metals. This is an excellent choice for high load requirements on aircraft mounts and enclosures. Aluminum also has good ductility, stiffness, corrosion resistance and workability. Its lightweight properties make it useful in aerospace structural applications such as fuselage skins, wing ribs, wing skins, etc.
Copper testCopperCopper has excellent thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity and plasticity. It is also highly ductile, corrosion resistant and easy to weld.
Stainless steel test Stainless steelStainless steel is a type of mild steel whose properties are sought after in many industrial applications. Stainless steel usually contains at least 10% chromium by weight. They are the first choice for critical joints in engine and exhaust components, landing gear components and aircraft superstructures, ensuring high performance and durability.
Stainless steel testTitaniumTitanium has many material properties that make it an ideal metal for demanding applications. These properties include excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals and extreme temperatures. This metal also has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
Plastic testing PlasticPlastic is also a very popular choice for CNC machining because of its wide selection, relatively low prices, and significantly faster machining times. We offer CNC machining services for all common plastics.

Swiss Lathe Surface Treatment

TOP Prototype surfacing finishing techniques can either be for functional or aesthetic purposes.
Each technique has requirements, such as materials, color, texture, and price.
Below are the surfacing finishing technique rendered by us.

ProcessDescription
Copper testSandblastingAfter sandblasting treatment, the surface of the parts has a matte texture. It is mainly used for visual applications and can then undergo other surface treatments.
Oxidized precision partsAnodizingAnodizing improves corrosion resistance, enhances wear resistance and hardness, and protects metal surfaces. Widely used in mechanical parts, precision instruments, aircraft, automobile parts, etc.
Spraying test Electrostatic sprayingElectrostatic spraying is a coating applied as a free-flowing dry powder. Unlike traditional liquid coatings, which are delivered by evaporating solvents, powder coatings are typically applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or UV light
Aluminum testPolishingThe polishing range spans from Ra 0.8 to Ra 0.1. The polishing technique utilizes abrasive materials to rub against the surface of the parts, leading to the surface of the parts becoming either more lustrous or less lustrous, all depending on your requirements.
Stainless steel testPlatingThe electroplating coating enables the reduction and deposition of metal cations by applying an electric current, which can protect the surface of the parts and prevent corrosion caused by rust and other defects.
