SHIMCO’S MILLING AND MACHINING SERVICES

As manufacturers of precision formed and machined parts for a range of industries—including aviation, nuclear, defense, and more—we take great pride in our work.

Our pride is evident in our milling and machining capabilities. We purchase plate materials for milling and machining but also manufacture our own laminated sheets for machining into machine-to-print parts. While the majority of our products are sold to Tier 1 manufacturers and OEMs , we can and do make products for anyone requiring precision, high-quality parts.

Our facilities feature state-of-the-art VMX Hurco CNC vertical milling machines, a new Mazak high-volume horizontal CNC mill, taper mills, lathes and a variety of high-speed hydraulic shearing machines. Our technicians are highly skilled and experienced, expertly performing drilling, counter boring, threading, pocketing, profiling, and many other milling and machining operations.

We can machine aluminum, bronze, brass, titanium, nickel, steel, plastics, and more, producing parts up to 42.000” long, 20.500” wide and between 0.001” and 20.500” high, with tolerances within ± 0.002”.

Our machining capabilities are equally impressive and highly regarded, manufacturing custom shims of all types, included fully or partially laminated, tapered, and edgebonded shims, along with spacers, fillers and washers. We work with aluminum, steel, titanium, plastics, fiberglass, and almost any polymer.

Our shims can be made as thin as .001”, up to any thickness desired, and shapes can range from simple (round, square, rectangular) to complex (horseshoe, loose leaf, slotted). We can also offer a range of finishing services, such as heat treating, non-destructive testing and surface treatments.

There’s a reason high-tech industries with extremely high standards have relied on our milling and machining services for over 25 years. Have questions? Contact us today, we’re happy to help.
