CNC Turning Services | High-Precision Manufacturing Solutions
Your project needs precision-turned components that hit exact specs. Most manufacturers waste time and money with shops that don't have real multi-axis turning capabilities or actual quality systems in place.
As a leading precision CNC turning shop, our turning department at Shamrock Precision runs advanced CNC turning machine technology that produces high-precision parts with consistent quality. We handle different materials and sizes for oil & gas, aerospace, and other demanding industries.
Why Shamrock Precision CNC Turning Services Makes the Difference
Basic machining won't cut it anymore. In today’s manufacturing world that is driven by A.I. level precision, your business needs advanced turning capabilities that most generic shops simply can't provide. As an experienced CNC turning company, we focus on what matters:
- Complex part geometries that need multi-axis work
- Precision CNC turning for tight tolerances on critical components
- Quality that stays consistent across every production run
- Quick turnaround times that match your schedule
- Material options that fit your specific application
- Efficient production at our CNC turning center to keep costs reasonable
What Our Turning Department Handles
We've built our CNC turning services around what manufacturers actually need. Years of working across multiple industries taught us which machines matter most. Our CNC turning center works on parts up to 16" in diameter. The machines deliver:
- 4-axis milling/turning up to 8" diameter main spindle with 6" sub spindle
- 7-axis CNC turning machine lathes handling up to 16" diameter work
- Maximum turning length reaching 59" (1500mm)
Got small parts with tricky features and super tight tolerances? Our Swiss Machining Services handle that type of precision work on Swiss-type automatic lathes.

Frequently Asked Questions About CNC Turning
CNC turning shapes a workpiece by rotating it against a cutting tool. Unlike milling, where the tool rotates, in turning, the workpiece rotates. This method works best for cylindrical parts and can make parts with precision CNC turning accuracy, making it perfect for components like shafts, pins, and fasteners.
Our CNC turning operations typically hold tolerances of ±0.001 inches for standard components, with capabilities for tighter tolerances (±0.0005 inches) for critical features depending on part geometry and material. For high-precision work, we can achieve tolerances as tight as ±0.0001 inches on specific features.
Multi-axis turning adds milling capabilities and more movement axes to traditional turning. This lets us machine complex features, off-center holes, and contoured surfaces in a single setup, improving accuracy and cutting production time. Our 7-axis machines can make complex parts that would otherwise need multiple setups or machines.
We turn many materials including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum alloys, brass, bronze, titanium, and superalloys like Inconel. Our material knowledge covers standard and exotic metals for demanding applications in aerospace, oil & gas, and other industries.
Our largest turning capacity is 18" (450mm) diameter on the Okuma Multus B400-W, with a maximum length of 59.06" (1500mm). For smaller parts needing higher precision, we have various machines to match specific part sizes and tolerance needs.
Standard CNC turning services work best for medium to large parts with diameters up to 18". Swiss machining focuses on small, precise parts (typically under 1.25" diameter) where extreme accuracy and surface finish are critical. We can guide you to the right process based on your part specifications.
