Frequently asked questions
Answers on ordering, drawings, lead times, materials and capability. If your question is not here, our engineers will answer it directly.
Yes, we do.
We verify all of our work with high-magnification inspection systems, and use machine vision and frame grabbing technologies when necessary. We supply Certificates of Conformance on request.
Yes. We will work with you to expedite orders. On some occasions a modest fee may apply to accommodate a rush order.
Yes. We gladly accept prototyping projects and aim to build a relationship that sees your product through to production.
For laser and micro-CNC projects we prefer .dxf files, with units in millimetres and the drawing centred. 3D printing projects require an .stl file; please state the unit of measure to apply.
Depending on the application, some projects can be completed within 24 to 48 hours of receiving the order. More complex or higher-volume projects can take up to 2 to 3 weeks.
Typically, a description of your project and/or a drawing.
About 1 micron. Feature size can be limited by the type and thickness of the material, and our staff can help you understand the limits for your material.
