Swiss Turning

Prolean’s Swiss Turning services focus on manufacturing high-precision complex parts
with competitive prices in quantities ranging from small batches of prototypes to full
production runs.
Our swiss machines are capable of producing extremely small parts with extreme
precision. Therefore, it is the best machining approach if you need parts with a
diameter of less than 1.25”.

What is Swiss Turning?

Swiss machine features a movable headstock where the work- bar gets attached for the turning in a collet or chuck, depending upon the size. If the bar is very tiny, the collet can
attach it with a great degree of stability with the help of guide bushing. As a result, the bar stock is not exposed directly to the lathe bed and turning tooling, allowing the material
to be turned quickly and securely inside the machine without deflection. You can also check our latest blog about swiss turning for more information
 
Swiss-turned Components: Swiss-turned components are extremely accurate and conform to the strictest of tolerances. The swiss turning machining is capable of high volume
production. Our common un volume ranges from 10-250,00 pieces

Prolean offers a wide variety of materials for CNC Swiss Turning. Please see the list for a sample of the materials we work with.

If you require material, not on this list, please do get in touch as it is likely we can source it for you.

As Machined

Our standard finish is an “as machined” finish. It has a surface roughness of 3.2 μm (126 μin). All sharp edges are removed and parts are deburred. Tool marks are visible.

Smooth-machining

A finishing CNC machining operation can be applied to the part to reduce its surface roughness. The standard smoothing surface roughness (Ra) is 1.6 μm (64 μin). Machine marks are less evident but still visible.

 
Brushing

Brushing is produced by polishing the metal with grit resulting in a unidirectional satin finish. Not advisable for applications where corrosion resistance is required.

Passivation part

Passivation

Passivation is a treatment method to protect the metal from corroding, it generates a more uniform formation of a passive surface that is less likely to react with air and cause corrosion chemically.

Anodizing hardcoat

Type III anodizing provides excellent corrosion and wear resistance, suitable for functional applications.

Electropolishing

Electropolishing

Electropolishing is an electrochemical process used to polish, passivate and deburr metal parts. It is useful to reduce surface roughness.

Chromate conversion coating

Alodine/Chemfilm

Chromate conversion coating(Alodine/Chemfilm) is used to increase the corrosion resistance of metal alloys while maintaining their conductive properties.

Bead blasting

Bead blasting adds a uniform matte or satin surface finish on a machined part, removing the tool marks. This is used mainly for visual purposes and comes in several different grits which indicate the size of the bombarding pellets. 

Powder-Coating

Powder coating is a strong, wear-resistant finish that is compatible with all metal materials and can be combined with bead blasting to create parts with smooth and uniform surfaces and excellent corrosion resistance.

Black Oxide

Black Oxide

Black oxide is a conversion coating used to improve corrosion resistance and minimize light reflection.
