Precision CNC Machining for Plastic and Metal Components
High-Tolerance Machining. Human-Focused Service. Built for Your Success.
At LaFlesche, we deliver high-precision CNC Machining services for industries where every cut, hole, and finish matters, including aerospace, medical devices, defence, and marine engineering.
We work closely with technical teams, buyers, and project managers to produce components that meet tight specifications, strict regulatory standards, and demanding production schedules, all while keeping our process clear, responsive, and collaborative.
“Serious about tolerances. Serious about people. Always ISO-certified.”
Our CNC Machining Capabilities
Multi-Axis Milling and Turning
Our facility is equipped to handle complex parts with:
- 3-axis and 5-axis CNC milling
- CNC multi-spindle and live-tooling turning for cylindrical, threaded, or eccentric complex geometries
- High-precision wire EDM and sinking EDM
- High-precision boring, drilling, tapping, and grinding
- Secondary operations: deburring, surface finishing, assembly support
We specialize in small to medium production runs where quality, consistency, and flexibility are critical.
Wide Material Expertise
LaFlesche machines a range of metals and plastics, including:
- Aluminum (6061, 7075, aerospace-grade alloys)
- Stainless steels (304, 316L, and more)
- Copper and copper alloys
- Plastics like PEEK, polycarbonate, ABS, nylon, and UHMW
- Composite materials and specialty polymers for high-performance applications
Whether you need lightweight aerospace brackets or sterilizable medical housings, our team selects and machines the right material to fit the mission.
CNC Machining Integrated with Complete Manufacturing
At LaFlesche, CNC machining is not a siloed service. It’s part of a full manufacturing ecosystem.
Our product development team collaborates with CNC machinists to ensure parts are designed for real-world manufacturability.
We also integrate machining with injection molding, prototyping, and assembly, providing you with a single-source solution from design to delivery.
Need a machined aluminum frame and a molded plastic enclosure for the same project? We can do both in-house, under one roof.
Sustainability in CNC Manufacturing
We understand that today’s engineering challenges include environmental stewardship. Our CNC Machining processes are designed to:
- Minimize material waste through advanced nesting and cutting strategies
- Source recycled metals and sustainable plastics wherever possible
- Recycle scrap and swarf through certified materials processors
- Optimize machine efficiency to reduce energy consumption
LaFlesche is committed to sustainable manufacturing, not as an afterthought, but as a standard practice.
Reviving a Legacy Part for Dero Industries Without Missing a Beat
In 2024, Dero Industries came to us with an urgent request: they needed a part we had machined for them back in 2005 (when LaFlesche operated under a different name.) Unfortunately, they had lost all the original drawings and documentation. The client was concerned about the time and cost of reverse engineering the worn part. Their production was on a critical timeline, and delays weren’t an option.
Our response? “Don’t worry—we’ve got it.”
Thanks to our meticulous record-keeping, we still had the original design files, CNC programs, quality procedures, and production notes stored in both physical and digital archives. We quickly coordinated with our internal team and adjusted our production schedule to create a machining window, without delaying work for our other clients. The result: a fast turnaround, a flawless part, and a very satisfied customer.
At LaFlesche, we take pride in going the extra mile because when our clients are under pressure, we treat their priorities like our own.
