MACHINING:
WHY C&A?

C&A Tool has been a leader in the high-precision contract manufacturing industry for more than five decades. And machining is at the heart of what we do.

We have the country’s largest collection of for-contract machining equipment—including the largest collection of Star lathes in the Midwest. Additionally, we have one of the industry’s most advanced capabilities in large machining.

With more than more than 60 mills and 80 lathes onsite, plus the industry’s most experienced team of precision experts—and our unparalleled project management process—few companies deliver precision like we do 

Our Expertise = Your Competitive Advantage

As a leading contract manufacturer, we help our customers innovate—through our full spectrum of in-house capabilities— from design and rapid prototyping, to additive manufacturing, machining, finishing and metrology.

We can assist with design and engineering, then prototype in production-grade materials. This allows our clients to innovate more, overcome challenges, shorten production schedules and increase speed to market.
