Machine Tool Forging
Machine tools make other things accurate, which means their own components must be more accurate still. Dimensional stability over years of thermal cycling matters more here than raw strength.
Forged machine tool components — spindles, shafts, levers and structural parts — prioritise dimensional stability over raw strength, because residual stress released after installation permanently destroys machine accuracy. Stress relief precedes finish machining, with batches from 25 pieces.

Stability Over Strength
A machine tool component that moves half a micron after installation destroys the machine's accuracy. Residual stress must be relieved before finish machining, and material selected for stability rather than for maximum hardness.
- Dimensional stability is paramount
- Stress relieved before finishing
- Thermal cycling over years
- Accuracy transfers to the workpiece
Small Batches, High Precision
Machine tool builders order in tens rather than thousands, with tight tolerances and full documentation. Our prototype and small-batch routes serve those quantities without imposing production tooling cost.
People also ask
Why do machine tool parts need stress relieving?
Residual stress from forging and rough machining releases slowly over time and thermal cycles, moving the component and destroying the machine's accuracy after it has been installed and commissioned.
Can you handle machine tool quantities of 25 pieces?
Yes. Small precision batches are served through machining from forged blanks or the open die route, avoiding production tooling cost.
What documentation do machine tool builders receive?
Full dimensional inspection reports against the drawing, plus material and heat treatment certificates.

Questions Answered
Do you supply machine tool builders?
+
Yes, forged spindles, shafts, levers and structural components with dimensional stability after heat treatment.
What batch sizes do you accept?
+
From 25 pieces for machining work, and single pieces via the open die route.
Why does stress relief matter for machine tools?
+
Residual stress released after installation moves the component, destroying the machine's accuracy permanently.
