Swiss Screw Machining: Tight-Tolerance Parts at Volume

Swiss screw machining (Swiss-type turning) produces tiny, tight-tolerance cylindrical parts at volume — the method behind surgical pins, connectors, sensor shafts, and miniature fasteners. By supporting the stock right at the cut, a Swiss lathe holds micron tolerances on long, slender parts that a standard lathe would deflect. This guide explains the process, materials, and […]
