Precision CNC Aluminum Machining Services for Complex Components

Owens Industries is a trusted name when it comes to providing advanced aluminum machining services. With CNC technology and state-of-the-art equipment, we can perform complex machining operations for many different CNC machining materials including aluminum. Our advanced machining capabilities include 4-axis and 5-axis milling, swiss machining, and even micromachining. This allows us to create the highest precision parts with the tightest tolerances. We can achieve tolerances as tight as 0.0005".

Owens Industries is a Wisconsin-based CNC machine shop, but we have been known nationally since 1944 for being on time, within budget, and within tolerance. We understand that each project is unique, which is why we offer custom aluminum machining services tailored to meet specific customer requirements. Our expertise in providing high-quality custom aluminum parts manufacturing and fabrication services is unmatched. Owens' commitment to quality assurance and inspection ensures that every precision aluminum CNC machining service we provide is of the highest standard.
