CNC Precision-Machined Aerospace Components
The Importance of Precision Machining in the Aerospace Industry
Swiss CNC Machining
In the aerospace industry, the assets you produce are only as reliable as the parts you use. Given that aerospace manufacturers are responsible for producing highly sophisticated, technologically innovative, and often delicate pieces of equipment, even the slightest design error can result in a fatal flaw. In order to achieve the tight tolerances and precision required, aerospace manufacturers rely on precision machining.

The Benefits of CNC Machining Aerospace Parts
The benefits of CNC precision machining for the aerospace industry are extensive:
- CNC machining produces precision parts with minimal risk of human error, thereby ensuring the integrity of aerospace equipment
- CNC machining uses a wide variety of quality materials, many of which are capable of withstanding the extreme temperatures and pressures common to aerospace applications
- CNC machining is capable of producing aerospace parts with extremely tight dimensions and tolerances, thereby ensuring equipment safety
- CNC machining can be used to create a wide variety of aerospace parts, including geometrically challenging and intricate components

Our Aerospace Precision Machining Capabilities
W.H. Bagshaw Company is uniquely qualified to produce precision-machined aerospace components. From CNC turning to multi-axis Swiss machining, we offer a broad spectrum of machining processes, which enables us to produce parts according to our clients’ exact specifications. We also offer a wide array of materials, including aluminum, high/low carbon steel, 300/400 Series stainless steel, making our components suitable for many different applications, from instrument panels and satellite assemblies to sensors and accelerometers.

Most importantly, W.H. Bagshaw is committed to quality. We’re ISO 9001:2015-certified and genuinely believe in building quality into every step of our design and manufacturing process. We understand that many aerospace manufacturers work under government contracts and, therefore, require parts that meet stringent requirements, which is why we provide lot traceability and First Article Inspection Report documentation (upon request). We can also meet military specification requirements. All of this is backed by 150+ years of manufacturing experience, in which time we’ve developed a consistent, highly repeatable process. We may be one the oldest manufacturers in America, but we’re dedicated to continuous improvement and utilize state-of-the-art machinery.
Parts we can produce:
- Shafts
- Pinions
- Dowels
- Slotted screws
- Contacts
- Teasing needles
- And more
