How a Turning Job Runs at Union Enterprises
Every job opens with a print or a sample. Our machine shop manager reviews the geometry, flags anything that will fight the tooling, and returns a quote inside one to two business days. The shop cuts a first article, confirms it with QC, then releases the run. When a legacy part arrives without a drawing, the team measures the sample and creates a 3D model. Short runs and full production move through the same setups, so a ten-piece batch holds the same diameters as a thousand-piece order.
Tolerance Control and Part Documentation
Diameters, lengths, and thread features are measured on a fully automatic three-axis OGP SmartScope, which removes operator guesswork from the numbers. Regulated jobs ship with first article inspection and material traceability attached, so a medical or automotive buyer can drop the paperwork straight into a quality file. Turning often feeds a second operation, and pairing it with in-house milling and grinding keeps a multi-step part from bouncing between vendors.
Why choose Union Enterprises for CNC turning in Westerville?
A buyer reaches the machinist, and roughly 80 to 90 percent of orders are repeat business, because parts land on time.
Turned Parts for Medical, Automotive, and Test-and-Measurement
Six years of medical work anchor the shop’s turning experience, where traceable stock and signed inspection reports are non-negotiable. Automotive customers lean on the lathes for repeatable pins, spacers, and fittings across longer runs. Test-and-measurement builders order close-tolerance probe bodies, adapters, and fixture hardware, often reverse-engineered from a worn original. One small team and one inspection standard cover all three.
