What Are Swiss-type CNC Machining Parts
Custom Swiss-Type CNC Machining Parts are ultra-precision components manufactured using advanced Swiss-type CNC lathes, also known as sliding headstock lathes. This specialized machining technology excels at producing small, complex, and high-tolerance parts with exceptional length-to-diameter ratios. Unlike conventional lathes, the Swiss-type machine holds the workpiece with a guide bushing and moves it axially past stationary tools, providing unparalleled stability and accuracy, especially for long, slender components. This process is ideal for creating intricate features like micro-threads, deep holes, and complex contours in a single setup.
At JST, we specialize in manufacturing custom CNC swiss-type lathe machining parts for global markets, with significant exports to Germany, the US, Switzerland, and France. Our expertise in swiss-type CNC lathe parts ensures that even the most demanding, miniature components—such as those made from materials like 11SMn30+C steel with Zinc-Nickel Plating finish—are manufactured with consistent quality. These precision parts are critical for industries where microscopic precision is non-negotiable, particularly in automotive applications where tight tolerances and complex geometries are required.
