Falcon CNC Swiss offers precision aluminum machining for OEMs in need of reliable production assistance, consistent quality, and precision dimensional control. We use a combination of CNC milling, turning, multi-axis machining, and Swiss CNC machining in order to create specialized aluminum pieces for applications with high demands.
From the prototype stage up until mass production, Falcon CNC Swiss provides assistance with both prototyping and production needs. This allows for the entire machining process to be evaluated right from the start and allows a stable process to be established before production starts.
Falcon CNC Swiss can be used for production of small parts and complicated machined housings. Visit our section about precision Swiss machining capabilities for high-precision, small aluminum parts!
Custom aluminum components are more complicated than standard CNC machining. It depends on geometry, material selection, dimensions, production volume, and downstream finishing. Falcon CNC Swiss performs custom aluminum machining for OEM components based on various customer requests.
We offer precision milling, CNC turning, multi-axis machining, and Swiss machining for aluminum parts manufactured in prototyping and production. This allows engineers and purchasing teams to work with one aluminum machining supplier throughout product development and manufacturing.
For complicated parts, our engineering review will take into account critical dimensions, wall thickness, internal features, tooling access, workholding, and tolerances before production starts. This helps find manufacturing problems in advance and helps create a more practical path from prototype to production.
Typical custom aluminum parts include:
Precision brackets and structural components
Aluminum housings and enclosures
Shafts, pins and fittings
Connectors and small precision components
Robotics and automation components
Electronics and industrial components
The objective is not simply to machine aluminum to a drawing, but to establish a repeatable manufacturing process that delivers consistent precision aluminum parts across production runs. For projects requiring broader CNC manufacturing capabilities, see our Precision CNC Machining Service page for additional milling, turning, and production capabilities.
Swiss CNC machining has benefits for manufacture of small components which have complex shape or critical tolerances that are not offered by traditional CNC machining methods. The design of Swiss machine allows to support the work piece closer to the cutting point, which results in the higher stiffness and lower deflection while manufacturing long, slender, or thin wall aluminum components.
Falcon CNC Swiss is a combination of Swiss machining experience with CNC manufacturing technology, which facilitates machining of aluminum Swiss machining components with thin diameters, demanding tolerances, and repeatability. Thus, Swiss machining is preferred in the manufacture of such parts as connectors, pins, shafts, fittings, and bushes.
Swiss CNC machining is particularly effective when a component includes:
Small or miniature diameters
Long and slender geometries
Multiple turned diameters
Precision bores and threads
Closely controlled concentric features
High quantities of repeat components
For aluminum parts that combine turned features with secondary milling operations, machining strategy can be planned around the complete component rather than treating each feature as a separate process. This can help reduce handling, improve repeatability, and create a more stable production process.
Swiss machining is also valuable when moving from prototype quantities into repeat production. Once tooling, workholding, cutting parameters, and inspection methods are established, the process can be optimized for consistent production output.

Selecting the right alloy helps balance machinability, strength, corrosion resistance, weight, and cost. Falcon CNC Swiss machines commonly used aluminum grades for prototype and production components.
| Alloy | Key Characteristics | Typical Applications |
| 6061-T6 | Excellent machinability and balanced strength | Housings, brackets, structural parts |
| 7075-T6 | High strength-to-weight ratio | Aerospace, robotics, structural parts |
| 2024 | High strength and fatigue resistance | Aerospace components |
| 5052 | Good corrosion resistance | Enclosures and industrial parts |
6061 aluminum machining is frequently an industry standard for general precision parts due to its machinability and materials performance balance. When it is necessary to have further strength and less weight, 7075 aluminum machining becomes more appropriate.
Material selection should take into account the geometry of the part, machining process, tolerance, surface finish, and operational environment in the end. For more information about aluminum grades and their machining specificities compare information from our Aluminum Machining Guide.
Getting consistent results when using precision aluminum machining requires more than just good CNC equipment. It requires control of the manufacturing process, detailed inspection of the process, stability of tooling attachments and extensive experience in production of precision aluminum parts.
Falcon CNC Swiss enables to work on projects that demand tight tolerance aluminum machining by following the customer drawings and engineering requirements, and implementing the inspection protocols set in advance. The critical dimensions and features required for performance must be verified by the means of specialized measuring devices such as CMM and dimensional inspection
Our quality management systems allow for the manufacture of reliable products in industries with strict quality control procedures, which include automotive, medical, and industrial industries.
The quality control measures include:
Review of drawings and specifications
In-process inspection
Dimensional verification
First Article Inspection (FAI)
Monitoring of production process
In the case of producing aluminum parts with the strict dimension tolerance, the design of the components must take into consideration the design of their tolerances. Such factors as the material state, part dimensions, machining operations, and finishing operations must be determined before the manufacturing process.
A good manufacturing partner goes beyond just prototyping. Falcon CNC Swiss provides machining services for aluminum prototype machining and manufacturing support for production processes that suit customer needs and take them from idea to stable production.
Our method of going from prototype to production means designers can check their designs, improve manufacturability, and implement a working machining process before they begin large-scale production.
Prototype Creation
In the prototype phase, our experts study the drawings for the part, CAD models, materials, specifications, and functional features. This assessment provides a picture of probable machining problems and helps make improvements to the original design.
Engineering Review and Process Improvement
The work pertaining to manufacturing includes the choice of tools, clamping, and machining orders, as well as the requirements for inspections.
Low Volume and Production Machining
After prototype validation, the process can be scaled for low volume aluminum machining and repeat production. Stable machining parameters and quality procedures help maintain consistency across production batches.
This capability is especially useful to OEM customers because they need a partner for a long-term basis rather than separate suppliers for each stage of development. Falcon CNC Swiss caters to engineering companies of all kinds by providing CNC Contract Manufacturing for aluminum machining prototypes and production orders.

A manufacturable aluminum design can improve machining stability, dimensional consistency, and production efficiency. During the engineering review, several design factors should be considered before machining begins.
For aluminum machining design, key considerations include:
Wall thickness: Avoid unnecessarily thin walls that may deflect or vibrate during machining.
Internal radii: Use practical corner radii that match available cutting tools.
Deep pockets: Excessive depth-to-width ratios can increase tool deflection and reduce stability.
Tolerances: Apply tight tolerances only to functional features that require them.
Tool accessibility: Ensure cutters can reach critical surfaces without excessive tool extension.
Workholding: Provide suitable surfaces or features for stable fixturing.
These considerations become particularly important for complex aluminum components with thin walls, deep cavities, or tight dimensional requirements. Addressing potential manufacturing issues during design can reduce unnecessary machining operations and improve production consistency. For more detailed guidance on thin-wall component design, see our Thin Wall Aluminum CNC Machining Guide.
