Precision Swiss Machining
C-Axis specializes in precision Swiss machining for complex, tight-tolerance medical device components. Our advanced Swiss turning centers provide exceptional accuracy, repeatability, and speed, making them ideal for micro-machined and highly detailed geometries used in implantable, surgical, and minimally invasive devices. With multi-axis capability and expert programming, we deliver consistent quality across both prototype and high-volume production.
Our Swiss machining operations are built to produce high-precision components with demanding dimensional requirements, intricate features, and challenging materials. With up to 12-axis Swiss turning centers, synchronized tooling, and advanced process control, C-Axis achieves ultra-tight tolerances and superior surface finishes. Our experienced machinists and engineers collaborate closely to optimize tooling, cycle times, and manufacturability, ensuring reliable performance at every production stage.

We look at C-Axis 360 as an opportunity for our customers to save weeks of development time by having their project team come into our facility. Here they are assigned a C-Axis team (an Engineer, Technician, and Machinist) to work with to complete multiple iterations in one sitting, helping to improve the R&D timeline. Instead of doing things in series, our customers can do multiple potential design iterations in parallel and save six or seven weeks in their NPD cycles. — Olson
