Q2 2026 capacity update: two new 5-axis cells online

Published July 22, 2026 Β· Updated August 19, 2026

We commissioned two additional 5-axis trunnion cells in our Suzhou workshop this quarter, adding ~600 machine hours per week of contour and multi-face work.

Two new 5-axis trunnion cells went live in our Suzhou workshop this quarter, adding roughly 600 machine hours per week of contour and multi-face work.

What this means for your project:

  • Shorter lead time on five-axis features β€” typical queue drops from three weeks to ten days.
  • Larger envelope β€” Ø500 mm Γ— 400 mm parts with one-setup completion on both faces and the curved profile.
  • Tighter tolerances β€” in-process probing on the trunnion keeps critical dimensions at Β±0.01 mm without operator intervention.

If you have an open RFQ with five-axis work, ping your project engineer β€” capacity slots are already opening up for late-summer deliveries.
