FAQs

## Straight Answers Before You Ask
Advanced Precision Technologies is a 5-axis CNC machining specialist based near Cambridge. We work with engineers and R&amp;D teams across the UK and internationally who need complex parts made accurately in small numbers.

We use OPEN MIND hyperMILL and Autodesk Fusion for CAM programming, DMG MORI and Matsuura 5-axis milling machines, and a 5-axis scanning CMM for inspection. Inspection reports are supplied on request, including for parts made elsewhere.

What tolerances can you hold?+We routinely hold 5 to 10 microns (0.005–0.010 mm) on our DMG MORI CMX 70 U and Matsuura MX-520 5-axis machines.

What is the largest part you can machine?+Up to 675 mm × 650 mm × 550 mm (X × Y × Z), and cylindrical parts up to 600 mm diameter.

Do you take one-off and prototype work?+Yes. One-offs and prototypes are our focus. Typical batches run from 1 to 100 parts.

What files do you accept?+STEP, IGES and technical drawings. No drawing? Send the physical part and we can reverse engineer it.

Is my design kept confidential?+Yes. We sign an NDA with every customer as standard.

Which materials do you machine?+Aluminium, stainless steel, titanium, plastics and exotic alloys. We have also machined glass and carbon.

Can you inspect parts made elsewhere?+Yes. Our 5-axis scanning CMM inspection is available as a standalone service, with reports supplied on request.
