Specialties

Complex parts done right

Cerven Solutions has developed proprietary processes for intricate geometry, tight tolerances, and stress control on parts with heavy material removal.

Thin walls

Standing walls up to 70:1 height-to-thickness, held without chatter or wall taper

70:1
Heavy material removal

Routinely remove up to 95% of material on complex parts with higher removal rates achievable

95%
Flat parts and faces

Tight flatnesses achieved in an unconstrained condition so parts are truly flat

DOWN TO 0.01mm
Deep pockets and tight corners

Corner radius to wall height up to 20:1, with chatter free finishes and no wall taper

20:1 R
