Swiss screw machines are designed to be extremely proficient for the manufacturing of small parts and also for long, small diameter parts which would deflect or vibrate when turning on a conventional lathe. They are also very fast and extremely accurate holding tight tolerances of +/- .0001″
Gerard Machine began exclusively as a screw machine shop and we have extensive experience with these machines. Our machines allow turning, milling, drilling and back turning operations to be completed on the same machine, finishing the part with no secondary processes necessary. Our screw machine capacities allow us to manufacture parts up to 1.25″ in diameter. We produce parts from materials such as aluminum, brass, copper, steel, stainless and plastic. Production volumes range from prototype to large production runs in excess of 100,000 components.
