Machining and high-precision CNC machining
Mastec offers machining and CNC machining of metal and plastic components. With a modern machine park, automated production, and high traceability, we deliver milled and turned parts with high precision, consistent quality, and tight tolerances..
What is machining?
Machining is a manufacturing method where material is shaped by removing excess material using cutting tools, for example, during milling, turning, and CNC machining. The method is used to manufacture components with high precision, tight tolerances, and good surface finish.
At Mastec Precision in Ulricehamn, we offer machining in both metal and plastic. With a modern machine park, automated processes, and high traceability, we produce parts for customers with high demands on quality, repeatability, and documentation.
We offer machining with:
- High precision and tight tolerances
- CNC machining in metal and plastic
- Milling, turning, and 5-axis machining
- Adapted for complex geometries
- High compliance in documentation and traceability
Our machining solutions
We offer machining and CNC machining of parts in both metal and plastic. With modern machines and automated processes, we help customers with milling, turning, assembly, and finished component solutions. For components where sheet metal forming, laser cutting, or bending is more suitable than CNC machining, we can also assist with sheet metal fabrication and thin sheet metal processing.
5-axis CNC milling
5-axis CNC milling is used for advanced components with complex geometry, high precision, and requirements for good surface finish. The method is suitable for both prototypes and serial production of parts in metal and plastic.
CNC turning
With CNC turning, we manufacture round and cylindrical parts with tight tolerances and high repeatability. Our automated processes are suitable for efficient production of components in small to medium-sized series.
Assembly and finished component solutions
In addition to machining, we can assist with assembly, testing, and the purchasing of components. This allows us to deliver more complete solutions where machined parts are included in a finished product or sub-assembly.
High-precision 5-axis CNC milling
With 5-axis CNC milling, we can process advanced components with complex geometry, high precision, and good surface finish. The method is an important part of our machining and is suitable for parts where several sides, angles, and shapes need to be machined with high accuracy.
At Mastec Precision, we work with both 5-axis and 4-axis simultaneous machining in modern CNC machines. This provides a stable and efficient process for manufacturing components in small to medium-sized series.
Advantages of 5-axis CNC milling:
- High precision and surface finish
- Efficient machining of complex geometries
- Fewer setups and more stable production
Typical part sizes:
We typically machine parts from approximately 100 × 100 × 50 mm up to 450 × 450 × 200 mm.
CNC turning with high precision and automation
With CNC turning, we manufacture round and cylindrical components with high precision, good surface finish, and tight tolerances. Turning is an important part of our machining and is particularly well-suited for parts with complex geometry and high demands on repeatability.
Our lathes are equipped with robotic picking or bar feeders as well as driven tools, enabling automated and cost-effective production in small to medium-sized series.
Advantages of CNC turning:
- High precision and good repeatability
- Efficient machining of round and cylindrical parts
- Automated production with robotic picking or bar feeders
- Cost-effective manufacturing in small to medium-sized series
- Ability to machine parts with complex geometry
Dimensions:
Typically diameters from approximately 50–100 mm, with the capability to handle dimensions between 20 and 300.
Assembly and finished component solutions
When a component or module consists of parts that we manufacture ourselves, we can take responsibility for more parts of the delivery. This provides better control over quality, purchasing, assembly, and costs throughout the process.
We offer assembly, testing of smaller modules, and the installation of thread inserts. In this way, we can deliver machined parts as part of a finished component solution, freeing up time and resources for our customers.
How we can help:
- Assembly of machined components
- Testing of smaller modules
- Installation of threaded inserts
- Procurement of standard components
- Quality assurance before delivery
This frees up time and resources for our customers and ensures efficient delivery. Read more about our component assembly.
Post-processing and surface treatment of machined components
To simplify delivery, Mastec can coordinate several subsequent processes for machined components. This can involve post-processing, laser marking, surface treatment via partners, and final delivery of a complete product.
Through an established network of qualified subcontractors, we can take greater overall responsibility and ensure that components are delivered according to the customer’s requirements for function, quality, and documentation.
- Surface treatment via qualified partners
- Post-processing of components
- Laser marking (in-house)
- Final delivery of complete product
- Coordination with subcontractors
We collaborate with an established network of qualified subcontractors. Read more about surface treatment of components.
Documentation and traceability in machining
When manufacturing machined components, documentation and traceability are an important part of quality assurance. Mastec offers full traceability down to the component level and ensures that every delivery meets the customer’s requirements for quality, control, and documentation.
Through clear processes, accurate measurement, and established routines, we can deliver the correct documentation along with the components we manufacture.
Documentation can include:
- Certificates
- Attestations
- Measurement reports
- Inspection documentation
- Traceability at the component level
Standards and customer requirements:
- FAI according to EN 9102
- Certificate of Conformity (CoC)
- FAR/DFARS for relevant customer requirements
- Export control when necessary
Quality assurance and environment in component manufacturing
Mastec Precision is certified according to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 and works structurally with quality, environment, and continuous improvements. In CNC machining and component manufacturing, quality assurance is a central part of the process – from planning and production to inspection and delivery.
Through clear routines, measurement, and documented workflows, we ensure that machined components meet the customer’s requirements for precision, function, and traceability.
How we work with quality and environment:
- Quality assurance at every stage of production
- Continuous improvements of processes and workflows
- Long-term focus on sustainable and efficient manufacturing
- Inspection, documentation, and follow-up before delivery

Frequently asked questions and answers about machining
Machining is a manufacturing method where material is removed to create parts with high precision. The method is used when components require tight tolerances, high surface finish, and an exact fit.
We work with several different materials in machining, including aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, magnesium, brass, and plastic. The choice of material is adapted to the component’s function, requirements, and area of use.
5-axis milling is an advanced type of CNC machining where the tool can move in multiple directions simultaneously. This makes it possible to manufacture complex parts with high precision, fewer setups, and excellent surface finish.
We work with meticulous documentation, measurement reports, and full traceability throughout the entire process. If required, we also offer FAI according to EN 9102, certificates, and other documentation to meet high quality standards.
Yes, we offer more than just machining. We can also assist with assembly, testing, laser marking, and subsequent processes to deliver a finished component or complete product.
