Prototype Machining

Early-stage development often requires fast turnarounds, high accuracy, and reliable material performance. Centracore provides prototype machining services to support new product introductions, design evaluations, and functional testing. We work with aluminum, ductile iron, and steel to produce components that reflect real production outcomes—ideal for design validation and process planning.

Our team works directly with customers during early-stage product development to help refine features, tolerances, and manufacturing steps, providing a smooth transition from sample parts to full-scale production.

Prototype CNC Machining Services

Centracore’s in-house CNC machining centers support a wide range of part sizes and volumes, making them ideal for prototype CNC machining services. Using high-speed horizontal and vertical CNC mills and lathes, we produce precision parts in quantities ranging from a single unit to large production runs.

Whether the job requires multi-axis machining, precision boring, or tight-tolerance drilling, our prototype CNC machining capabilities give customers confidence in part accuracy and repeatability. Projects often begin with castings, forgings, or extrusions and are machined to exact specifications before moving into production phases.

Scalable Production Machining

Centracore is equipped to support production runs of up to 150,000 parts per month. We maintain a wide range of CNC machines, specialized cells, and process controls to maintain output speed and dimensional stability. Our production lines accommodate a variety of materials and part geometries, including components as small as 20 grams and as large as 50 kilograms.

Key processes include precision milling, turning, boring, tapping, and finishing. Customers benefit from streamlined transitions from prototype quantities to production volumes, all within the same workflow.

Contract Assembly Services

Centracore offers contract assembly services that combine machining, cleaning, inspection, and mechanical assembly into a single, coordinated process. These services reduce customer handling and logistics while improving part readiness for end use.

Capabilities include sub-assemblies, leak testing, washing, and hardware installation. Assembly operations are supported by quality-controlled work cells, each structured for efficient repeatable processes. For customers with tight timelines or complex build requirements, contract assembly services provide a consistent and cost-effective path to production-ready components.

Secondary Operations and Finishing

To complete production workflows, Centracore supports a wide range of finishing and secondary services. These include heat treating, anodizing, plating, welding, passivation, deep-hole drilling, and insert molding. Our team also coordinates specialty coatings and treatments through trusted external partners, providing customers with complete parts ready for shipment or further integration.
