Smaller Parts Capability:
Prototype and Low Volume
We have a wide diversity of machines that can fulfill these types of orders depending on size and requirements. We manufacture, repair and assemble stamping dies, gages, fixtures and replacement parts for the stamping and mold industries In addition, we prototype medical devices, fabricate, weld and have the capability to produce parts made from carbide.
We utilize 20MM and 32MM Swiss Turning machines along with many other CNC 3,4 and 5 axis lathes and machining centers to serve our industrial, food processing, packaging, medical, aerospace, military, pneumatics and high Technology customers.
Certifications
AS9100, Boeing BQMS (D6-82479), ATA Certified, Source Inspection Certified, Lean Manufacturing ISO 9001-2008 and ITAR. New federal regulations require that many types of businesses involved in America’s defense trade must have ITAR registration – International Traffic in Arms Regulations 2011.

Multi-Spindle Rotary Transfer
We offer multi-spindle rotary transfer technology through our industry-leading partner. Our partner has Hydromat 16-station machines and is world renowned for designing and building their own rotary transfer machine tools.
- We custom design and build machines around your family of components, so you get the benefits of the most efficient production at the lowest capital cost
- We can build inline, trunnion, or horizontal equipment
- Our latest 24-station design uses a Hirth-Ring index table for + 0002 inch accuracies
- Our partner’s machines typically have from eight to 24 stations
- Costs 60% less than an equivalent purchased machine. This savings is passed on to you!
High-Volume, High Speed Manufacturing with Close Tolerances
Our primary niche is high-volume jobs that require machines to produce parts at close tolerances in sub-two-second cycle times.
- Volumes that start from 300K to 500K parts and into the millions fit us best
- We will be one of the lowest cost providers in the world if your part fits our capabilities
- To maintain our position in this competitive market, we continually focus on new and unique technologies to improve cost-control and expand our capabilities
Boost Your Accurate Weekly Output!
Our multi-spindle lathe department runs machines by Schutte, Gildemeister, and Euroturn. These world-class lathes are typically more than 20 times more accurate than our competitor’s machines.
- Our weekly output capability is enhanced because every lathe is equipped with an auxiliary bar loading machine, which can increase your output by more than 25%.
- The high-reliability of these lathes ensures each machine can produce in excess of 300,000 parts weekly!
Single-Spindle Lathes for Short & Quick Runs
Our single spindle CNC department consists of Citizen Sliding Headstock lathes.
- Our engineering team has developed unique attachments that reduce the cycle times on female contact pins by 25%.
- These machines are extremely versatile for short runs and quick set-up.
- We have equipped them with bar loaders and sensors for un-attended operation.
- Let us put our expertise to work for you!
Rotary Transfer High Volume Machining
“State of the Art” European Multi-spindle lathes outperform standard lathes in every respect:
- RPM’s – Our spindles are modern sealed designs, which can operate at 300% faster RPM’s, allowing Liberty to produce your part faster!
- Hirth Ring Index – All of our lathes are equipped with this geared location mechanism which enhances accuracy by twenty fold.
- Compound Slides – We can single point complex features such as lead screws or threads.
- Faster Idle Time – Less non-cutting time means more parts per hour!
- Isolated Independent Cams – Each cutting tool is cammed at its optimum feed rate. All cams are separated form the chip area to prevent random chips on the cams.
- Micrometer Adjustments – All tools are more easily changed and thus more accurate parts are produced with less down time.
- Servodrives – All of our lathes use servodrives to eliminate clutch slipping and the wearing of mechanical drive components.
- Synchronous Drives – As our lathes are 100% Synchronous we can use advanced attachments to eliminate secondary operations. These include polygon forming, thread milling, off center rotating drilling, back drilling and tapping, etc.
As a result of the above technology our lathes typically are producing components 24 hours a day at efficiency rates of 90% or better.
