Precision CNC Machining for Hardware Startups Teams
Hardware Startups companies in Fort Collins need parts that are exact, traceable, and documented. A structural bracket that's off by 0.003 inches can create an unsafe condition. We machine aluminum 7075, titanium 6Al-4V, and Inconel 718 to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. Every order ships with CMM inspection reports, material certs, and documentation your quality team can use.
Flight-Critical Materials
We source and machine aluminum 7075-T6, titanium 6Al-4V, and Inconel 718 — all with full material certs and heat lot traceability.
Tight Tolerances
We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on critical bores and mating surfaces. Every part is CMM verified before shipping.
Full Documentation
Dimensional inspection reports, material certs, first article inspection — whatever your AS9100D-aligned quality plan requires.
