CNC milling
3-axis and 5-axis vertical work — pockets, profiles, fixtures, and prismatic parts held to the print.
Takal Precision Machining L.L.C.
The print is
the contract.
CNC milling, turning, and Swiss work quoted from your drawing — prototype lots through production — from the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metro.

Traveler
What the floor sees
A representative title block — not a production part. Dimensions on the drawing are illustrative. Your print governs every lot we run.
Décolletage
Swiss-type,
named for the watch.
A sliding headstock feeds bar through a guide bushing. The cut happens a few millimetres from the support, so slender parts do not whip. That is the whole trick — and why a Swiss cell is the wrong machine for a fat chucking job and the right one for a long, close pin.
01
The stock moves
Headstock slides. Tool stays close to the bushing face. Length-to-diameter that would chatter on a conventional lathe holds still.
02
One setup
Live tooling and a sub-spindle put cross holes, slots, and back work on the same traveler. Secondary ops only when the print actually needs them.
03
The print still wins
We quote Swiss-type work from your drawing. We do not invent a machine list or a tolerance we have not proven on your part.
Services
Work we quote
Capability, not a machine brochure. If the print fits the cell, we quote it. If it does not, we say so before you wait.
CNC turning
Chucking and mill-turn for shafts, bushings, fittings, and parts that start round and stay honest.
Swiss / small-diameter
Close work on small diameters where a conventional chucking lathe is the wrong tool.
Prototype & first article
Lot of one is a real order. First-article inspection against the callouts you care about.
Production lots
Repeatable programs once the process is proven — not a different shop the second time you order.
DFM with the quote
If a radius, stock, or tolerance will burn money without helping the function, it shows up on the quote — not after the PO.
Equipment
Process classes, not a serial-number list
We do not publish a branded machine inventory on this site. The table is the work we run. Specific cells are confirmed on the quote.
| Process | What we run | Inspection |
|---|---|---|
| Milling | 3-axis and 5-axis vertical work | First article to print |
| Turning | Chucking and mill-turn with live tooling | In-process checks |
| Swiss | Small-diameter, close work | Dimensional report on request |
| Secondary | Deburr, simple assembly, part marking | Visual to traveler |
Materials
Stock we routinely quote
Customer-supplied material is welcome when certs travel with the bar. Exotic or mill-run items are quoted as specials — we do not pretend every alloy sits on the rack.

Industries
Programs we take
We machine parts for engineers in these sectors. We do not claim sector certifications we do not hold.
Industrial equipment
Fixtures, wear parts, housings, and replacement components for machines that have to run on Monday.
Robotics & automation
End-effectors, manifolds, spacers, and brackets where fit and repeatability matter more than a brochure finish.
Medical instruments
Non-implant instrument and fixture work. We do not claim FDA registration or implant production on this site.
Energy & fluid systems
Fittings, glands, and small pressure-containing geometry quoted to the print you send.
Quality
Inspection before the box is taped
Every lot is checked against the print. A formal quality management system is being stood up with the shop. Takal Precision Machining does not claim ISO 9001, AS9100, or ITAR registration on this site.

Process
Watch a part get made
Swiss-type cycle, from the print to the dock. Play it, or step the traveler yourself. Illustrative — not a production cell.
RFQ
About
A new shop, built for agility
Takal Precision Machining L.L.C. is a new, independent machine shop built to move at the speed engineers actually need. No layered queue, no account manager between you and the spindle — you send the print, we quote the work and cut the part.
Lean by design, and that is the point. Less overhead and fewer hand-offs mean quicker quotes, faster answers, and a direct line to the people running your job. We compete on responsiveness and honest work — not on a brochure.
FAQ
Questions we get with the print
What is the minimum order quantity?
One. Prototype of a single piece is a real RFQ. Production pricing is quoted separately once the process is proven.
What files do you need?
A PDF print with tolerances and a STEP of the solid. DXF for 2D profiles when that is the whole job. If a note on the print conflicts with the model, the print wins unless you tell us otherwise in writing.
Are you ISO 9001 or AS9100 certified?
No. We do not claim ISO 9001, AS9100, NADCAP, or ITAR registration. Inspection is to the print. If your program requires a listed certification, say so on the RFQ so we can decline early rather than stretch the truth.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes. Send the agreement with the RFQ. We do not use uploaded files for anything except quoting and, if awarded, making the parts.
What are typical lead times?
Quoted per job. We do not publish a blanket turnaround. If a date is load-bearing, put it on the RFQ.
Can you work from a napkin sketch?
We can talk. We quote from a print. If you need the print drawn, say so — that is a different line on the quote.
