➕ Additional CNC Methods Offered by Modulus Metal
At Modulus Metal, we go beyond standard milling and turning. Our advanced machining capabilities include specialized CNC methods that allow us to manufacture extremely complex, high-precision parts for export to Europe and North America. These extended services are especially useful for customers in the aerospace, medical, automation, hydraulics, and robotics industries who require tight tolerances, intricate features, and high efficiency.
We serve only international customers, with production based in Ankara, Turkey, and logistics through hubs like Istanbul, Izmir, Bursa, Kocaeli, Yalova, Tuzla, Gebze, Mersin, Adana, Tekirdağ.
🌀 Mill-Turn with Sub-Spindle (XZC Axis)
Our mill-turn machines equipped with C-axis indexing and live tooling allow for simultaneous turning and milling in a single setup. The sub-spindle transfers the part from the main spindle, enabling full back-side machining without manual intervention.
Key benefits:
- Ideal for rotational parts with milled or drilled features on multiple faces
- Eliminates secondary setups
- Increases precision and consistency
- Great for high-precision shafts, connectors, or hydraulic parts
🧵 Swiss-Type Turning (Sliding Headstock CNC Lathes)
Our Swiss-style CNC machines are engineered for small-diameter, long-length parts with ultra-tight tolerances. The sliding headstock design supports the material closer to the cutting tool, reducing deflection and vibration.
Used for:
- Medical pins and bone screws
- Electrical contact pins
- Aerospace fasteners
- Thin shaft components
- Watch parts and precision sleeves
Tolerances down to ±0.005 mm are regularly achieved.
🕳️ Deep Hole Drilling / BTA Drilling
We offer deep hole drilling and BTA (Boring and Trepanning Association) drilling for parts requiring long, straight bores with exceptional surface finish and minimal runout.
Capabilities:
- Hole depths up to 40x diameter or more
- Straightness control using guided tooling
- Coolant-through drilling for thermal stability
- Deburred and polished internal surfaces
- Suitable for: heat exchangers, tool holders, shafts, and dies
⚡ High-Speed Aluminum Machining
For high-volume and high-speed machining of aluminum parts, we operate high-RPM spindles (up to 24,000 RPM), specialized tooling, and aggressive feeds and speeds.
Ideal for:
- Aerospace brackets
- Automotive structural components
- Enclosures and lightweight housings
- Optical mounts and panels
- Robotics end-effectors
Benefits:
- Reduced cycle times
- Excellent surface finishes
- Minimal burr and distortion
🔧 U-Axis Boring for Precision Large Diameters
U-axis heads enable programmable boring bar movement for interpolated hole enlargement. This method is perfect for precision large-diameter bores that require extremely tight tolerances and fine finishes.
Applications:
- Valve bodies and sleeves
- Hydraulic cylinders
- Bearing housings
- Engine blocks and high-pressure components
U-axis boring is preferred where standard boring bars or reamers would introduce runout or chatter.
🔄 Live Tooling with Bar Feeder Integration
For efficient production of turned-milled parts, we use live tooling CNC lathes with bar feeders. This allows continuous operation and fully automated production of parts with side holes, slots, or milled flats.
Benefits:
- Reduced cycle time per part
- Ideal for mid-to-high volume production
- Supports up to 3-meter bar stock
- Automated part ejection and collection
- Used in: hydraulic adapters, sensor housings, spacers, bushings
🪶 Surface Milling with Vacuum Fixtures
When machining large, flat, or thin-walled parts, traditional clamping can distort the material. We use custom vacuum workholding systems to hold parts securely without mechanical pressure.
Advantages:
- Perfect for sheet metal, thin aluminum plates, or plastic covers
- Maintains flatness and edge accuracy
- Prevents clamping marks
- Ideal for surface machining, pockets, and engraving
Summary
Our additional CNC capabilities help you:
- Consolidate multiple processes in one supplier
- Reduce lead times and part handling
- Improve precision on complex features
- Increase design freedom
These operations are available as standalone services or integrated into full CNC machining projects for clients in:
- Germany, France, UK, Switzerland, Netherlands
- USA, Canada, and other export regions
