As top machined components manufacturers, we utilize Swiss precision machining, developed for the Swiss watch industry where tolerances and pieces are incredibly small and slender, which allows us to deliver incredibly precise parts. Standard lathes were incapable of such tasks, and so the Swiss-style lathe was created. These lathes operate by pushing the work piece through a guide bushing, which is in the same location as the main spindle on a standard lathe. This capability allows for these lathes to have both axial and rotational movement of the work piece.
