JW Machine is AS 9100 D / ISO 9001:2015 Certified

Although many precision CNC machining processes are much safer than manual machine shop work, they can still pose a threat if precautions are not taken. The machinists at JW Machine are highly skilled and trained.  They have the knowledge and expertise to understand the importance …

We are continuing our series on the different types of equipment found in our machine shop. Our previous article discussed precision CNC machining equipment used for milling turning (i.e., CNC machining centers / lathes). Today, we will explore some of the other types of tools, …

Experts in the precision CNC machining field use terminology such as contract manufacturing and prototypes to production manufacturing when referring to machine shop work.  You will also often hear terms such as milling turning, close tolerance machining, small part machining, laser cutting, and laser engraving.  …

Both accuracy and tolerance are imperative to delivering any CNC machining project, while precision is the icing on the cake.

Precision CNC machining processes are affected by the accuracy, tolerance and precision of the machine shop equipment being used.

A highly accurate precision CNC machining tool will get as close to the measurement as possible without any errors.

Most precision CNC machining facilities state that they work with stainless steel.  However, doing it well requires special skills, craftsmanship and experience. Today’s article will take an in-depth look at stainless steel, common applications, and what it takes to properly machine this very versatile alloy. …

Part Two We are continuing our series on machine shop qualities that are important when working with the defense and military industries. Our previous article discussed the level of experience of the precision CNC machining professionals, machine shop certifications, and the importance of maintaining confidentiality. …

Part One We are beginning a new series of articles on working with defense and military clients.  These sensitive industries have unique needs and considerations, which is why it is important for the machine shop handling your military and defense projects to be a good …

Back in the day, standard machining was the only contract manufacturing and prototypes to production manufacturing process available.  Computer numerical control (a.k.a. CNC) has revolutionized the machine shop industry.  Today’s precision CNC machining equipment allows parts and projects to be produced faster and more efficiently …

Part Two We are continuing our series on the aspects that influence the cost of a precision CNC machining project.  The bottom line is always something to consider with any contract manufacturing or prototypes to production manufacturing job.  There are various factors that can affect …

Part One We are sometimes asked about how precision CNC machining services are priced. There are many factors that influence the cost of laser engraving, laser cutting, milling turning, close tolerance machining, small part machining, etc. Let’s take a closer look: Design Prototypes to production …
