Contract Fabrication

Precision machining, for the features cutting can't hold

Some features need a tolerance a laser or a brake cannot reach: a bored hole, a threaded boss, a flat mating face. CMD machines those in-house, so a fabricated part comes back ready to fit, not close to fit.

In summary

Custom Metal Designs offers CNC machining alongside its sheet-metal fabrication in Central Florida: milling, turning, and machined features on fabricated parts. Machining is how CMD holds the tighter tolerances that cutting and forming cannot, on the faces, bores, and threads where a part has to fit precisely.

Machining runs in the same building as CMD's cutting, forming, and welding, so a fabricated part that needs machined faces, bores, or threads is finished in-house, with one company responsible for the whole part. CMD is ISO 9001:2015 certified.

Key facts

  • Milling and turning under one roof with fabrication
  • Tighter tolerances than cutting or forming hold
  • Finishes mating faces, bores, and threads on weldments
  • ISO 9001:2015 certified

What we machine

Machining runs alongside cutting, forming, and welding, so it is usually one step in a finished part rather than a job on its own.

    CNC milling

    Flat faces, pockets, slots, and precise holes in plate and block, to closer tolerances than a punch or laser can hold.

  • 02

    Machined features on fabricated parts

    Bores, threads, and mating faces added to cut and welded assemblies, so one shop delivers the finished, fit-ready part.

  • 03

    Turning

    Round parts, shafts, spacers, and bushings turned to size, on their own or as features on a larger part.
