Specializing in high tolerance prototype machining services, including precision machining of Teflon material.
Precision manufacturing demands exacting standards, especially when producing prototypes from challenging materials. This guide explores high tolerance machining for prototype machining services, with a special focus on machining Teflon (PTFE) - a material renowned for its unique properties but notorious for machining difficulties.

We guarantee that all CNC-machined parts adhere to ISO 2768 standards. For metal-machined parts, we adhere to ISO 2768-m (medium) or ISO 2768-f (fine). For plastic-machined parts, we adhere to ISO 2768-m (medium).
At Hongsinn, we offer CNC milling (including 3-axis, 3+2-axis, and 5-axis) as well as turning services.
For 5-axis milling, the maximum part size is 650 x 650 x 300 mm (25.5 x 25.5 x 11.8 inches).
CNC Turning:
The recommended minimum part size is approximately 0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 inches (10 x 10 x 10 mm), with a minimum feature size of 0.5 mm.

Fast, Reliable Delivery
We offer rapid part design iterations, accelerating your product development with fast turnaround times. Our automated design analysis helps you identify any difficult-to-machine features before designs are sent to the manufacturing floor, eliminating costly rework during the product development cycle. This allows you to move projects forward more efficiently, ensuring on-time delivery of high-quality products.
When you upload a 3D CAD file to request a quote, we analyze your part geometry to identify features that may be difficult to machine, such as tall, thin walls or holes that cannot be threaded. This process ensures you receive valuable feedback during the design phase, allowing you to optimize your design, reduce potential machining issues, and improve production efficiency.
We offer a wide range of over 30 engineering-grade plastic and metal materials, suitable for a wide range of part applications and industries. These materials include plastics such as ABS, polycarbonate, nylon, and PEEK, as well as metals such as aluminum, stainless steel, platinum, and copper. This diverse range of materials enables us to meet diverse customer needs and provide optimal solutions.
We partner with reliable US manufacturers to eliminate the risks of sending parts overseas. Feel free to call or email us anytime and we'll provide assistance with order processing, design feedback, material recommendations, and any questions you may have.
