Multi-Axis Machining LLC

  • What are your business hours?

    Our operating hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
  • Where is Multi-Axis Machining located?

    Starting January 2026, our new facility will be located at 2010 W Parkside Lane, Suite 134, Phoenix, AZ 85027. We are situated in the desirable Deer Valley manufacturing district of West Phoenix, approximately 1 mile from I-17, AZ-loop 101, and the Deer Valley airport. Our location is also just 17 miles from Sky Harbor International airport.
  • Do you machine car engine or marine parts?

    Currently, we do not manufacture car engine or marine parts as these require specialized calibrated machinery that we don't currently possess. Please check with us in the future as we continue to expand our services and capabilities. We are currently evaluating equipment that would allow us to serve the automotive and marine industries.
  • What is Precision Machining?

    Precision machining is a specialized manufacturing process utilizing advanced equipment to create intricate and complex components. A precision machine shop employs computer numerical control (CNC) machines capable of performing beyond three-axis machining with exceptional tolerance and accuracy. Our precision machining capabilities currently achieve tolerances of approximately +/- 0.0005 of an inch.
  • What are some typical applications of CNC Machining?

    CNC machining is extensively utilized across aerospace, medical, automotive, and manufacturing sectors due to its ability to rapidly produce precise parts using production-grade materials. Common CNC-manufactured components include housings and enclosures, brackets, manufacturing fixtures, gears and bearings, internal mechanical components, and medical instrumentation.
  • What are the advantages of CNC machining?

    Product designers and engineers select CNC machining for rapid part production. The subtractive process offers several advantages for both prototyping and low-volume production, including precision and repeatability, tight tolerances, production-grade materials, and quick-turn parts that can often be delivered within one day.
  • Why Choose Us for Custom CNC Machining?

    We offer fast and reliable delivery, with our designs accelerating product development through quick-turn parts. Our automated design analysis identifies difficult-to-machine features before manufacturing begins, saving you from costly reworks. When you submit a file for quotation, we analyze your part to identify challenging features such as tall, thin walls or holes that cannot be threaded. As a trusted U.S.-based manufacturer, we eliminate risks associated with overseas production. Our team is available via phone or email to assist with ordering, provide design feedback, recommend materials, and answer any questions you may have.
  • What compatible materials do you work with?

    We work with a variety of metals including aluminum, steel, tool steel, stainless steel, brass, copper, titanium, and N60. We also machine plastics such as ABS, acetate, acrylic, Delrin, nylon, polycarbonate, PVC, and Teflon.
  • What CNC & conventional machines does Multi-Axis use and what is their capacity?

    Our CNC mills include a Makino a51 Horizontal Machining Center with a work envelope capacity of 20" in X, Y, and Z axes, featuring a 12,000 RPM spindle and CAT 40. We also operate a Haas Mini Mill Vertical Machining Center with a work envelope capacity of 16" X, 12" Y, and 9" Z, equipped with a 6000 RPM spindle and CAT 40. For CNC lathes, we use a Daewoo Puma 200 Turning Center (2 axis w/tailstock) with a maximum turning diameter of 13.78" and length of 15.75", featuring an 8" chuck with 2" through bore. Our manual equipment includes two Bridgeport Series 1 Mills, a Southbend Lathe (12" swing, 26" Z travel, 8" chuck, 2" bore), a Jet Lathe (20" swing, 32" Z travel, 10" chuck, 4-1/4" bore), and a Chevalier Surface Grinder with 12" x 6" travels.
  • Do you offer secondary finishing on an order of custom parts?

    While we do not currently have in-house capabilities for custom finishes, we maintain relationships with numerous finishing providers. We are happy to facilitate powder coating, anodizing, electroplating, brushing, or polishing services for your parts through our established network of finishing specialists.
