CNC Milling
ProtoEdge offers high-precision CNC machining, low-volume production, and prototyping utilizing horizontal and vertical milling in 3-, 4-, and 5-axis configurations, producing top-notch components with precise tolerances. This process allows the tool to move or rotate on different planes, enabling the machine to operate at various angles during machining. In addition to milling and drilling, ProtoEdge can perform sophisticated techniques such as knurling, counterboring, and threading, allowing for intricate geometries and multifaceted structures with tolerances ranging from ±0.0005" to ±0.0002", depending on the material selected. Our machining operations can handle low-volume, high-mix production runs, and prototype orders to meet your specific tolerances and lead times.
Swiss Machining
Precision parts, customized solutions. ProtoEdge performs on-demand services in producing intricate and high-precision parts with extremely tight tolerances, using advanced Swiss-type CNC turning technology. We effectively ship parts to various industries, including automotive, electronics, medical, particle accelerators, robotics, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals. With the ability to hold part tolerances of up to ±0.0001", since materials selection impacts the tolerances that we can hold on equipment, the goal is to provide a solid option on a timely schedule. Our typical components are bushings, fittings, pins, needle valves, shafts, and spindles.
We are committed to providing customized manufactured parts that meet the unique needs of short-run volumes. Regardless of the project size, to complete complex parts from low-volume to mid-volume, single prototypes, or production runs build to print, in delivering quality work on time

CNC Turning
ProtoEdge offers precision CNC turning services for manufacturing metal and plastic parts, utilizing advanced machinery and a team of professionals. CNC turning is commonly used for shaping round or cylinder-shaped raw materials, but it can also be applied to square or hexagon-shaped materials. The types of parts that can be produced on a CNC lathe or turning center depend on the power and speed capabilities of the available tooling options. This service helps reduce time to market and minimize risk while producing high-quality metal and plastic parts.

EDM Machining
EDM, or Electrical Discharge Machining, is an excellent option for creating intricate shapes in metal parts without the need for cutting tools. It is capable of shaping hard materials, such as titanium, which are difficult to machine using other methods. Although EDM is a powerful machining process, it is limited to electrically conductive materials, meaning that plastics, rubber, and other insulators cannot be machined using this method. Despite this limitation, EDM can achieve tight tolerances of ± .0001” (0.0025mm), making it a reliable method for creating small, complex parts.
The permissible deviations in measurements comply with the standards set by ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 2768. Whether you need low- to mid-volume manufacturing or prototype CNC machining, ProtoEdge can help you choose the right solution for your needs.
