Burlingame's Industrial Equipment Cluster Needs Parts That Pass Every Audit

Burlingame runs on precision. The same East Bay corridor that supplies Lam Research's semiconductor equipment teams also supports 18 industrial equipment companies with over 2,100 workers. Those teams build instruments and implants where a single out-of-spec bore can mean a product recall. RivCut machines surgical-grade titanium, PEEK, and 316L stainless to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches — and ships complete documentation your FDA-facing quality team can use the same day parts arrive. We're in Union City, less than five miles from your Burlingame facility.

Precision CNC Machining for Industrial Equipment Teams

Medical device companies in Burlingame need parts that are exact, clean, and fully documented. A surgical instrument that's 0.003 inches off can fail in the field. We machine titanium, 316L stainless, PEEK, and medical-grade aluminum to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. Every medical order ships with a CMM inspection report, material certs, and documentation your quality team can use.

1

Biocompatible Materials

We source and machine titanium Grade 23 ELI, 316L stainless, and PEEK — all with full material certs and traceability.

2

Tight Tolerances

We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on critical bores, tapers, and mating surfaces. Every part is CMM verified.

3

Full Documentation

Dimensional inspection reports, material certs, passivation certs — whatever your quality plan requires, we provide it.

What We Machine for Burlingame Industrial Equipment Teams

Why Burlingame Medical Teams Work With RivCut

You're five miles from our shop in Union City. That matters more than most buyers realize. When your prototype needs a revision after a fit check, you can drop off a marked-up drawing in the morning and pick up corrected parts the same afternoon. No freight delay. No three-day wait for a courier to cross state lines.

Medical-Grade Documentation

Burlingame's industrial equipment workforce is experienced. Your engineers know GD&T. They know what a balloon drawing looks like. When you call us, you talk to a machinist who speaks that same language — not a sales rep reading from a spec sheet.

Ultra-Clean Surface Finishes

We're already embedded in the East Bay supply chain. We serve companies that feed into the same industrial corridor running from the 880 through Union City and into Burlingame's manufacturing parks near Cushing Parkway and Burlingame Boulevard. Lead times for local customers average two to three days faster than for out-of-region shops simply because freight doesn't cross a time zone.

Full Part Traceability

Burlingame also operates on Pacific Time — same as us. When you send a DFM question at 4 p.m. on a Tuesday, we respond before end of business. No waiting until next morning for an East Coast shop to open.

Fast R&D Turnaround

We understand FDA documentation requirements. Every medical order ships with material certs, a CMM report, and any process certs — passivation, anodize, electropolish — your quality plan requires. Your quality team doesn't chase paper.

Questions from Burlingame Medical Teams

Yes. Every medical order ships with a CMM dimensional inspection report, raw material certifications with lot numbers, and any process certifications — surface finishing per spec, anodize, or electropolish — your quality plan specifies. We build the documentation package to match your design history file requirements. If your QMS uses a specific format, send us the template and we'll fill it out.
For Burlingame customers, we offer same-day drop-off and next-day pickup on simple revisions. Upload your updated CAD file in the morning, confirm the quote, and we start cutting the same shift. Because we're five miles away in Union City, you're not waiting on freight. Most single-part prototype revisions are ready within 24 hours of order confirmation.
Yes. We stock titanium Grade 23 ELI bar and plate and machine it with dedicated tooling to avoid cross-contamination with ferrous materials. We provide full mill certifications with chemical composition and mechanical properties tied to your part number. Critical bore tolerances on implant features hold at ±0.0005 inches, verified on our CMM before shipment.
Yes, and this is a common request from Burlingame teams crossing over from the robotics and automation space into surgical devices. We run quantities from one to several hundred parts. Pricing scales accordingly. We also offer DFM feedback before you cut metal — useful for teams transitioning from industrial to medical tolerances for the first time. No minimum order quantity.
Yes. We machine PEEK using dry cutting methods without flood coolant to prevent fluid absorption that could affect dimensional stability. Parts are machined to your print tolerances — typically ±0.001 inches on general features and tighter on critical interfaces. We can also machine Radel and Ultem if your sterilization protocol requires a different polymer grade.
We do. We run prototype quantities for fit checks and design validation, then move directly into production runs using the same fixturing and tooling. That continuity matters — your production parts come off the same setup your validation parts were made on. For Burlingame customers needing blanket orders or scheduled releases, we can hold stock and ship against your pull signals.
