CNC Machining
Multi-spindle machining, rotary transfer machining, milling & turning, CNC hobbing, gear and spline cutting, and drilling & tapping — completed in one Rock Valley facility.
Complex components, completed in-house.
CNC Machining at TCS covers a family of named in-house processes: Multi-Spindle Machining, Rotary Transfer Machining, Milling & Turning, CNC Hobbing, Gear Cutting, Spline Cutting, and Drilling & Tapping.
These processes are part of the more than 32 manufacturing processes fully-integrated in house at TCS, which allow complex, high-precision components to move through multiple machining operations without leaving the Rock Valley facility. That in-house depth is part of how TCS furnishes complete, value-added components and assemblies for more than 500 active part numbers, and it eliminates the added cost and lead time of sending parts to another supplier for completion.
Multi-spindle and rotary transfer platforms alongside CNC mills and lathes.
TCS runs multi-spindle and rotary transfer machining platforms alongside CNC milling and turning equipment, giving parts a path through several operations — turning, milling, hobbing, gear and spline cutting, drilling and tapping — without changing facilities.
Specific machine models and brands are not published for this equipment; what's confirmed is the process list itself and that it operates as one integrated system within the Rock Valley plant.

Matched to the application.
Material selection is driven by each application's engineering requirements — TCS's engineering team helps source, test, and qualify materials for your specific application.
Where CNC-machined parts end up.
Machined shafts and precision components produced under this capability serve several of TCS's core markets.
Simulated before the first chip is cut.
TCS's internal engineering staff uses AutoCAD and Mastercam® to simulate tool paths and sequences for optimum efficiency and accuracy before machining begins — reducing risk on multi-operation parts that move across several of these processes.
AutoCAD + Mastercam® simulation
Measured, not assumed.
Machined components are checked using TCS's in-house Vision and CMM measurement systems, supported by an SPC network that monitors the process as it runs.
