Conventional Milling
At Mach-Tech, we take pride in offering specialised conventional milling services that provide clients with reliable precision, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. While our CNC milling services are renowned for their complexity and automation, we understand that not every project requires CNC’s precision or setup costs. That’s where our conventional milling services come in—a practical, manual, hands-on approach for projects that demand skill, adaptability, and rapid turnaround.
Backed by over 40 years of experience, our conventional milling expert ensures outstanding results across applications, particularly for quick modifications, straightforward three-axis milling tasks, and essential secondary operations for CNC-milled parts.
Why Our Conventional Milling Stands Out
Our conventional milling services deliver the quality and dedication that clients expect from Mach-Tech, built on our commitment to excellence in every project. Conventional milling allows us to achieve rapid, accurate results without the need for extensive CNC programming and setup, making it an ideal choice for projects that are simpler or that require quick, on-the-spot modifications. Additionally, our experienced machinist brings decades of expertise to every task, ensuring the precision and adaptability that only a skilled hand can achieve.
At Mach-Tech, we believe in providing the best solution for each project’s unique needs. Conventional milling allows us to achieve that by offering a cost-effective, efficient approach for clients who value speed and quality without unnecessary expense.

Flexible Applications
Our conventional milling services are perfectly suited for applications where quick adaptability, affordability, and hands-on skill are essential. Common uses of our conventional milling machines include quick modifications to parts, simple three-axis milling for straightforward geometries, and preparatory or secondary tasks that support CNC machining processes.
When minor changes or adjustments are required, conventional milling allows our machinists to make those modifications directly, minimising downtime and expense. This flexibility is particularly advantageous when working on tasks that require only basic milling operations. Similarly, when a component needs a pre-operation setup before CNC processing, our conventional milling machines handle the work more efficiently, streamlining the process. The same applies to secondary operations, where additional milling touches such as chamfers, slots, or post-CNC refinements can be done precisely and swiftly. These uses ensure that clients receive the best balance of cost, quality, and turnaround time.
To deliver the precision and quality Mach-Tech is known for, our conventional milling services are powered by two high-performance MACH YS-1 milling machines. These machines are equipped with an Acu-rite 2005 2-axis DRO (Digital Readout) system, which provides accurate X and Y axis control, enabling real-time monitoring and maintaining high accuracy across every cut. Our MACH YS-1 machines come with X and Y power feeds for smooth, consistent movements, with the X-axis offering an 800mm travel range and the Y-axis 350mm. This capability means we can handle a variety of workpiece sizes and project specifications, supporting both small and large component needs.
To achieve precise depth control, each machine also features a quill travel of 127mm, equipped with a power feed for improved handling and consistency. This setup provides the precision required to meet our clients' high standards, with an accuracy level of 0.05mm. These machines allow us to deliver on the promise of quality that Mach-Tech clients have come to expect.

Some of Mach-Tech's Success Stories
Stephen Ottaway
Managing Director
We have worked with Mach Tech since incorporation in 2015, and as one of our key suppliers, they provide high quality machining work which is crucial for the demanding application for which our products are used.
David Willoughby
I am pleased to announce that since its introduction Mach-Tech are the only machine shop currently being used by UKAEA who have carried out this policy to the letter. In addition it should also be remarked that the quality of the components, packaging & paperwork are of the highest quality, making Mach-tech a key supplier to ourselves.
Andy Penfold
Head of Production
Mach-Tech has consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism and commitment to producing top-quality components. Their expertise and attention to detail have not only met but exceeded our expectations. The quality of Mach-Tech’s work has been instrumental in supporting Opsydia's growth. We consider Mach-Tech a key asset to our operations and look forward to continuing this successful partnership.
