Comprehensive Analysis of Custom Machining Services

Table of Content [Hide]

    What is Custom Machining Service?


    Custom machining service refers to the comprehensive process service of part machining, assembly, or surface treatment based on drawings, designs, or technical requirements provided by the customer. Unlike standardized mass production, custom machining service emphasizes precision, flexibility, and client exclusivity.


    Its processing scope covers a variety of manufacturing technologies, including CNC turning, milling, EDM, laser cutting, and metal 3D printing, which can be widely applied in high-end fields such as aerospace, medical equipment, automotive parts, and robotics.


    Zhihui Precision, as a professional machining manufacturer, can provide comprehensive custom machining services.


    Key Features of a Quality Custom Machining Supplier


    Choosing the right custom machining supplier is key to ensuring smooth project delivery and reliable quality. Quality suppliers typically have the following advantages:


    • High-precision equipment configuration: such as five-axis CNC machines, CNC lathes, and high-speed milling machines;

    • Complete quality management system: certified with ISO 9001, AS9100, etc., ensuring controllability and traceability of each process;

    • Strong technical support capabilities: can assist clients in optimizing designs, improving machining feasibility, and cost control;

    • Fast response speed: short lead time from quotation to sample delivery, adapting to the fast-iterating market demands.


    Choosing Zhihui Precision as an experienced custom machining supplier can effectively reduce trial-and-error costs and shorten product development cycles.


    Comprehensive Advantages of Custom Machining Factories


    Modern custom machining factories are not just machining workshops but comprehensive platforms integrating design support, process optimization, quality inspection, and logistics services.


    Their advantages mainly manifest in the following aspects:


    • High level of automation: introducing robotic-assisted machining and intelligent production lines to improve production efficiency and consistency;

    • Strong customization capabilities: have the ability for flexible production of multiple varieties and small batches to meet clients' special structural or functional requirements;

    • Outstanding cost optimization capabilities: control costs through internal process integration, centralized material procurement, and streamlined processes;

    • International service capabilities: can provide export certification, custom packaging, and global distribution support for overseas clients.


    The excellent custom machining factory of Zhihui Precision is not only an executor of product machining but also an important partner of the client's R&D team.

    Hi everyone, I am one of the co-founders of Zhihui Precision. You can call me Leo.

    I've been in the parts machining industry for 15 years, I'm 38 years old, and now I'm a senior engineer at Zhihui Precision.


    In the past 15 years of career, from the very beginning of the mechanical design apprenticeship, to bench-worker, machining process engineers, project engineers, and then to the senior engineer, all the way, has been in the machining industry inside the deep cultivating, learning a amount of rich theoretical knowledge and practical experience.


    What makes me persist in this seemingly boring industry? I think it should be the love, as well as watching part process start from scratch, from the beginning of a concept to design, and then step by step to make it into a physical process, so that I have a sense of fulfilment and achievement, love and enjoyment in it, the joy will come with it.


    I have a dream, that is, in their own professional life while taking care of family life can always stick to the original intention, tireless in their favourite machining industry with the attitude of craftsmanship to do a good job of every part by my hands, so that looks very textured, it smell rust, plus gorgeous surface treatment to add, the appearance and dimensions are just prefect, so that every part like a work of art in the hands of the customer.


    So, what can be done to give each part the appearance and dimensions that are just perfect and present it to the customer like a work of art?

    I think we're on our way, because here's what we did.

    1. Upgraded factory facilities and equipment, respectively:

    1.1 With a 10,000 square metres factory workshop.

    1.2 50+ CNC Machining Centres and Turn-Mill Machining Centres (Vertical and Horizontal) with 40 sets of 4 & 5 Axis CNC Machining Centres.

    1.3 Complete production and machining auxiliary equipment, including a flexible line with automatic loading, a complete and leading cutting tools management warehouse, a separate parts polishing department, a warehouse centre, and a production management system scientifically managed by MES and ERP.

    2. Enriched team, with 100 + people, 15 people more than 10 years of 5-axis CNC programming and machining experience in the core team, 5 people experienced in foreign trade project management team.

    3. Equipped with an advanced inspection system and equipment, with multiple RENISHAW inspection systems, including CMMs of ZEISS and LK, hand-held material analysers, hand-held 3D part scanners, as well as providing CT scanning measurement.

    4. Improving and perfecting our company through international certifications, we are ISO9001:2015 certificated, in the process of applying for ISO13485 certification, China High-Tech Enterprise certified, and have 20 company technology patents.

    5. We are still moving forward to the goal, towards refinement, lean process, and through advanced digital, automation equipment and improve the company, so that the production process is more efficient, quality is more stable, through lean process and automation continuously optimise the cost, so that customers can rest assured and satisfied.
