Machining Services
What types of machining services do we offer?
Precision Swiss Turning.
Invented in Switzerland to make watch parts this process had undergone major changes in the last decade. With the advent of CNC – Computerized Numerical Control, these machines have become very versatile. Swiss machines are ideal for the manufacturing of small extremely precise parts. Modern machines can complete a multitude of operations on a part and drop it off virtually ready to ship. Coupled to automatic bar loaders these machine can run “lights out” for 24 hr operation. Our swiss machines can machine parts from .020 to 1.260 in Dia. and lengths up to 36 inches. If you need a supplier with the most modern and versatile equipment you need to talk to Graycer.

Graycer has a wide assortment of turning machines from Brown & Sharpe cam machines, Brown & Sharpe CNC machines and Hardinge CNC bar and chucking machines. These machines offer heavy duty turning and forming capability to finish parts faster. Bar Capacities range from 1/16 to 2 3/8 and chucking capacity up to 10 inches.
CNC Milling
Graycer has a large milling department. Originally started to finish parts made on the turning machines our milling department has evolved to a full service milling shop. We are able to produce part programs from a variety of CAD drawings. Indexers, 4th axis machines and pallet machines give our milling department the versatility needed to compete in today’s marketplace.
