Our custom CNC turning services at Gen-El-Mec Associates, Inc. include the ability to meet precision tolerances as tight as ± 0.0001″.

Our production floor is climate controlled and our facility is located away from all sources of vibration. These steps have been taken to meet the most stringent requirements of the aerospace, medical, semi-conductor, and other advanced technology industries. Turning capabilities include contour, form, taper, and straight turning as well as single point threading and broaching. Live tooling facilitates efficient machining of complex patterns and shapes. Components may be machined from steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and bronze in a range of alloys including difficult to machine exotic alloys such as Invar and Inconel. CNC lathes have the capacity to turn parts up to 13.75” in diameter and 24″ long.

Additional services include 3, 4 or 5-axis CNC milling, jig boring, wire EDM, surface finishing, and inspection with CMM equipment. We routinely machine components for satellites and other space applications. Many new customers contact us through word of mouth recommendations by current customers.

We take pride in our over 50 years of experience and reputation for quality, precision work. Every employee from engineers to operators is responsible for upholding that reputation. While such complex work would not be possible without our advanced machinery, it is our people and relationships with customers that set us apart.
