What it is
Round parts, made from the drawing.
In CNC turning the component is held in a chuck and rotated, while computer-controlled cutting tools remove material to the drawing. It is how shafts, bushes, flanges, rings and other round parts are made.
H.O.B. turns to customers' drawings as a subcontractor. All CNC machinery is DNC-linked and programmed offline in EdgeCam multi-axis manufacturing software, and finished parts are checked in the inspection area, which includes a CMM. The quality management system behind it is certified to ISO 9001:2015 by BSI under certificate number FM 11369.
