Custom Machinery & Equipment Builders

Shafts, plates, bushings and brackets for machine and equipment builders, quoted from your print.

Custom machinery parts are the brackets, base plates, shafts, bushings, manifolds, guards, and one-off spares a machine builder needs for a single build, not a catalog run. Typical tolerance is ±0.005 in, tighter on fits and bores, in aluminum, steel, stainless, bronze, and engineering plastics. From one replacement shaft to a full bill of materials, no minimum order. Send a STEP file and a PDF; a quote comes back in 24-48 hours, and parts ship in 4-6 weeks, or 1-2 weeks rush, or 6-8 weeks when timing is flexible.

What We Make

Machine and equipment builders need parts that show up right and on time: structural brackets and weldment-ready plates, shafts and bushings, manifolds and fluid blocks, fixture and tooling plates, weld and assembly fixtures built to print for each station, and one-off replacements to keep a build moving. Machine builders quoting a whole station at once will find the package version on fixtures for automation integrators and machine builders. Send your files and the team will quote it, get it made, inspect it, and ship it (one piece or a small production run).

Typical parts

  • Structural brackets and base plates
  • Shafts, pins, and bushings
  • Manifolds and fluid blocks
  • Guards, gussets, and weldment parts
  • One-off replacement and spare parts

All accessed 30 September 2026. Where a figure here differs from your print, the print governs.

1. Wikipedia, "Engineering fit": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_fit (fit codes used on drawings in place of size limits; H7/h6 as a commonly used fit, hole and shaft ranges).

2. Engineers Edge, "Bearing Shaft and Housing Installation Tolerances": engineersedge.com/bearing/bearing_shaft_and_housing_16016.htm (an inner ring warmer than the shaft can loosen its seat; m6 instead of k6 as the tighter fit; no publication date given).

How It Works

Quote, make,
inspect, ship.

01

Quote

Send your STEP files and drawings. You get a real quote (material, price, and lead time) usually within 24-48 hours.

02

Make

Approve the quote and we’ll get your parts made, and keep you posted along the way.

03

Inspect

The team reviews every part against your print before anything ships.

04

Ship

Your parts ship to you with tracking. If a part doesn’t match the print, it’s remade or credited.

Questions

Before you send a job.

01 Can you quote a whole machine build, or only individual parts?

Send the whole package: a ZIP of STEP files and drawings is fine. Each part gets quoted, and the order ships together or in stages, whatever keeps your build moving. Shipping is quoted as its own line, or ships on your carrier account.

02 Is there a minimum order for machine-builder parts?

No. One replacement shaft or a full set of frame parts: single pieces are welcome. Ask for more than one quantity, such as 1, 25 and 100, and the quote shows each.

03 What if I only have a sample part, not a drawing?

Send a new sample part. The team can measure it, build the model and drawing, and quote a replacement. The model and drawing are quoted as their own line. Parts are supplied as replacements by fit and dimensions. No OEM logos, part numbers or markings are copied. Send a new part, not the worn one. Wear changes the sizes that matter. The sample ships back with the parts. Reverse engineering covers the steps.

04 What tolerances are typical for machine parts?

Around ±0.005 in standard, with fits and bores held tighter when the drawing calls for it. Position, perpendicularity and runout callouts are quoted from the print. Every part is inspected against your print before it ships.

05 How fast can parts arrive to keep a build on schedule?

Quotes come back in 24-48 hours. Rush: 1-2 weeks. Standard: 4-6 weeks (typical). Extended: 6-8 weeks, for jobs that aren’t time-sensitive. Rush 1-2 weeks applies to machined parts with no secondary operations. Heat treat, grinding, EDM and finishing add time, and the quote gives the real date. Lead time starts at order approval. Put your need date in the part description and the quote answers it. Rush CNC parts covers what makes a part rushable.

06 Can I reorder a part or set up a blanket order?

Yes to both. Reorders at the same revision: send the last quote or PO number and it’s requoted. Blanket orders are quoted too. Price, release schedule and lead time per release are set in the quote. Small-batch CNC machining covers repeat runs.

07 Do the parts come with material certificates?

No C of C or material certifications ship with parts by default. If your PO needs them, say so before the quote. Inspection reports on critical dimensions aren’t included by default. If you need one, ask when you place the order.

08 How should a bearing seat or press fit be called out on the print?

On the feature itself, as a fit code or as size limits. A fit code replaces upper and lower size limits on a drawing; in H7/h6, “a commonly used fit”, H7 is the tolerance range of the hole and h6 that of the shaft (source 1). Which fit a bearing seat needs is the machine designer’s call: NSK’s bearing guide says a bearing on a shaft with little interference can slip when it rotates with load on the inner ring (source 3), and Engineers Edge gives m6 in place of k6 as a tighter fit for an inner ring that runs warmer than the shaft (source 2). With a STEP file and no drawing, write the fit in the notes. A fit called out on the print is quoted from the print, and the bushing that presses into it can go on the same quote. CNC machining tolerances covers how tolerances are read.
