Precision Machining Built on Thirty Years of Floor Experience
CNC machining at Damark isn't just about having the equipment. It's about knowing how to run it. Our experienced team has the background to look at a print, identify what's going to cause problems before the first cut, and machine the part right the first time.
We handle jobs other shops pass on: tight tolerances, difficult materials, low quantities, and parts with no room for error. And when a job becomes repeat work, our documented processes make sure the tenth order runs the same as the first.
What Our CNC Machining Service Covers
CNC Milling
Multi-axis milling including 4th-axis capability up to 22 inches. Prismatic parts, complex geometries, and tight-tolerance work across a range of sizes. Our horizontal machining centers run with pallet changers, keeping production moving on repeat work.
CNC Turning / Lathe Work
Precision turned parts across a range of diameters and lengths. We run both CNC lathes and manual lathes for secondary operations, giving us flexibility other shops don’t have.
Small Batch & Job Shop Work
One part or fifty. We quote it. Most high-volume shops won’t touch small runs because they can’t make the economics work. We can, and we do. Regularly.
Production Runs
For repeat work we build documented routings, setup sheets, and in-process inspection checkpoints. We incorporate bill of materials into our routings so material is ordered correctly and on time.
Who We Work With
- OEM manufacturers who need a reliable outside supplier for production components
- Other machine shops who need overflow capacity or specialty work they can’t run in-house
- Equipment designers and builders who need machined components for custom machinery
- Engineers and purchasing managers who need a shop they can trust to hold tolerance and meet deadlines
- Independent inventors and product developers who need a capable shop for one-off and early-production work
What to Expect When You Work With Us
- 1
Send us your print or describe the job
Send your RFQ from the form or call us directly. No formal print yet? We can work from sketches, samples, or a description.
- 2
We review and quote
We look at the print carefully — not just for what it says, but for what might cause issues in machining. If we see something that’s going to cost you time or money, we say so before we quote.
- 3
First article and approval
For new work we typically start with a first article: one part made to print, inspected, and approved before we proceed.
- 4
Production and documentation
Once the process is established, it’s documented. Every repeat order runs off the same setup sheets, tooling documentation, and inspection checkpoints.
- 5
Delivery
Parts ship on your account or we arrange delivery depending on the job. We can also coordinate plating, heat treating, and other outside processes on your behalf.
Why Shops and Manufacturers Keep Sending Us Work
Damark has built most of its business from customers who found us through someone who used to work somewhere else — an engineer who moved companies, a production manager who switched industries. They bring us with them because the work was right and the relationship was straight.
We’ve machined components that ended up in agricultural equipment, military lighting systems, aerospace applications, nuclear facilities, and construction machinery. We’ve also made a $400 job for a guy who needed three pieces and couldn’t find anyone else to touch it. We treat both the same way.
“We build farm equipment parts up to aerospace. Ground to sky. That’s really the gist of it.”
Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can Damark machine?+
We work across a wide range of materials including aluminum, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, hardened steels, plastics, castings, and forgings. If you have a specific material in mind, contact us and we’ll confirm whether it’s something we can run.
What is your minimum order quantity?+
There is no minimum. We regularly run one-piece jobs and small batches that larger production shops won’t quote. If you need it made, send it over and we’ll give you a number.
Do you hold tight tolerances?+
Yes. Tight-tolerance work is a significant part of what we do. We have calibrated inspection equipment on the floor, including optical comparator measurement, and our machinists perform in-process checks throughout the job.
Are you ISO certified?+
We are ISO compliant. Our quality system includes documented in-process routings, machine setup sheets, calibrated gauges, and first sample inspection reports. We regularly supply parts to ISO-certified customers who require documentation from their outside suppliers.
Can you handle repeat production orders?+
Yes. For repeat work we build documented routings and incorporate bill of materials into our ordering process so material is ready when the job kicks off. Several of our customers have been placing repeat orders with us for years.
Do you work with other machine shops?+
Yes, and we do it regularly. If you have overflow work, a job outside your core capability, or a customer order you can’t fit in your schedule, we can help. We protect your customer relationships.
What is your typical lead time?+
Lead time depends on the job: material availability, complexity, and current shop capacity. Contact us with your details and deadline and we’ll give you a straight answer on whether we can meet it.
Can you coordinate outside processes like plating or heat treating?+
Yes. We regularly coordinate outside processing on behalf of our customers. You don’t have to manage multiple vendors if you don’t want to.
