Precision Machining for Des Moines, IA
Precision machining for Des Moines buyers means holding the print, proving it on a CMM, and shipping documentation with the parts. Wexmar runs tight-tolerance turning, horizontal milling, and Swiss work for Des Moines manufacturers in agricultural machinery, tire manufacturing, and food processing from Canastota, NY, delivered on a two-to-three-day less-than-truckload freight lane from Central New York.
Tolerances we hold for Des Moines work
Typical work runs plus or minus .005 in on general features and plus or minus .0005 in on bores, journals, and fits where the print calls for it. Concentricity, position, flatness, and surface finish are inspected, not assumed.
Inspection that travels with the parts
Two Brown and Sharpe CMMs, an optical comparator, and a calibrated gage library back every Des Moines order. First-article inspection, CMM dimensional reports, and material certs with heat-lot traceability ship on request.
Materials for precision Des Moines parts
Precipitation-hardening stainless, Nitronic 50, tool steels, titanium, Inconel and Monel, aluminum, and engineered plastics. Hard turning and centerless or surface grinding handle finish-critical diameters.

Precision Machining for Des Moines, IA: FAQ
What is the tightest tolerance you machine for Des Moines customers?
Bores, journals, and mating fits are commonly held to plus or minus .0005 in, with grinding used where the print demands finer control. Tolerance is quoted feature by feature from your drawing.
Do Des Moines orders include a CMM report?
Yes, on request. CMM dimensional reports, first-article inspection, and material certs are quoted as line items and ship with the parts.
Can you machine precipitation-hardening stainless?
Yes. 17-4 PH, 15-5 PH, and Nitronic 50 run regularly, with heat treat through qualified outside processors when the condition calls for it.
