Choose The Manufacturing Route That Fits The Part
Process selection depends on geometry, tolerance, material, annual volume and secondary features. Each part is matched to a practical route before manufacturing details are confirmed.
PART
GEOMETRY
Long / slender / small diameter
Swiss Turning
Best starting point for small precision components with length-sensitive geometry.
Predominantly rotational
CNC Turning
Controls diameters, bores, grooves, threads and round features.
Simple rotational + repeat volume
Automatic Lathe
Production efficiency matters when geometry is stable and repeatable.
Flats / cross holes / pockets
Turning + Machining
Completes the part when turning alone cannot finish functional geometry.
Turning-Led Manufacturing, Supported By Complete Secondary Capabilities
Swiss turning and CNC turning are the primary production routes. Supporting machining, finishing and materials complete the component workflow.
Swiss Turning
For Small, Slender And Repeat-Production Components
Guide-bushing-supported machining is effective where small diameter, length-to-diameter ratio, concentricity and repeatability matter.

Precision shafts / pins / sleeves / connectors / valve components
Key Value
Up to Ć38 mm Swiss-type bar capacity
CNC Turning
For Precision Rotational Components
Flexible turning for round parts requiring controlled diameters, threads, grooves, bores and repeatable batch production.
Best For
Shafts / threaded components / bushings / sleeves / fittings
Key Value
Typical tolerance around Ā±0.01 mm for suitable features
Automatic Lathe Machining
For Repeat Volumes Of Stable Geometry
Useful where part geometry is relatively stable and production efficiency becomes a major cost driver.

Pins / simple shafts / bushings / inserts / threaded fittings
Key Value
Production-friendly for repeat orders
CNC Machining
For Features Beyond Turning
Adds flats, cross holes, pockets, slots and other non-rotational details where turning alone cannot complete the drawing.
Best For
Cross holes / flats / pockets / mounting features
Key Value
Completes turned components in one coordinated route
CNC Milling
Complementary Milling For Complete Components
Supports surfaces, slots and mounting details on turned components or selected non-rotational parts that fit current capability.
Best For
Slots / flats / pockets / fixture-facing surfaces
Key Value
Used as a supporting process, not platform positioning
Secondary Operations
Reduce Supplier Handoffs
Selected drilling, tapping, reaming, knurling, deburring, marking and light assembly can be coordinated with the main process.
Best For
Functional holes / threads / edge breaks / marking
Key Value
Lower handoff risk across machining, finishing and inspection
Surface Finishes
For Function, Protection And Appearance
Project-specific finishing can support corrosion resistance, cosmetic surfaces, marking and assembly-facing requirements.
Best For
Plating / passivation / polishing / anodizing / black oxide

Manufacturing Decisions Before Metal Is Cut
Drawing & Tolerance Review
Review critical dimensions, tolerance relationships and features that may affect process stability or inspection.
Process Selection
Determine whether Swiss turning, CNC turning, automatic lathe machining or a combined process provides the better route.
Material Consideration
Evaluate machinability, functional requirements and downstream finishing needs.
Production Planning
Consider quantity and repeat demand before defining the manufacturing approach.
Quality Is A Manufacturing Process, Not A Final Check
ISO 9001 supports the quality system, with dimensional checks, visual review and release controls built into production.

Reduce Risk Before Production Scales
The manufacturing route is planned to reduce handoffs, sample-to-production gaps, batch variation and unclear technical requirements.
Multi-Step Coordination
Problem
Separate handling for turning, secondary features and finishing can add coordination work.
FLY Approach
Coordinate core machining and downstream operations through one manufacturing workflow.
Prototype / Production Gap
Problem
A sample can pass initial checks while production variation appears as quantity increases.
FLY Approach
Develop the manufacturing route with repeat production in mind from the beginning.
Batch Variation
Problem
Parts pass individually but drift over longer production runs.
FLY Approach
Use in-process measurement and controlled production checkpoints.
Unclear Technical Communication
Problem
Projects slow down when requirements are incomplete or interpreted differently.
FLY Approach
Confirm drawings, material, quantity and critical features before manufacturing starts.

Capabilities FAQ
Answers focus on manufacturing fit, prototype validation, process selection and tolerance confirmation.
Please provide a 2D drawing, 3D CAD file if available, material, estimated quantity, critical tolerances, surface finish requirements and target delivery. Application context is useful when function affects the manufacturing route.
Yes. Sample production can be used to validate geometry, critical dimensions and assembly requirements before moving into batch production.
No. FREEFLY CNC can support prototypes and sample validation. Production volumes of 500 pieces and above are particularly aligned with our batch manufacturing strengths.
The decision depends on part diameter, length-to-diameter ratio, geometry, tolerance requirements, material, secondary features and expected production volume. The best route depends on the actual geometry, material, tolerance requirements and expected production volume.
Yes, selected drilling, tapping, reaming, knurling, deburring, marking, finishing and related downstream operations can be coordinated according to project requirements.
Typical machining capability is around Ā±0.01 mm for suitable features, but achievable tolerance must be evaluated against geometry, material, feature type and inspection requirements.
