Couple interesting facts about St. Louis. Of course Lewis and Clark began their westward journey here in 1804 (hence the Gateway Arch), but exactly 100 years later the ice cream cone caught everyone’s attention at the St. Louis Fair. Fast forward to today, the ice cream cone is still a mainstay, but the economic base in St. Louis has grown, and is home to a wide range of industries.

 We’re proud to support a wide range of these industries, including aerospace machining, machining for military, transportation, machining services for healthcare, construction, and manufacturers. With a wide variety of industry experience, the team at Distinctive Manufacturing is here to support your metal fabrication and CNC machining projects from aerospace machining to X-ray machines.

Whether you’re in downtown St. Louis, Belleville, O’Fallon, Highland or Chesterfield, if you’re looking for a reliable metal fabrication company or precision CNC machine shop in the St. Louis area or other locations in St. Louis County, give Distinctive Manufacturing Group a look!

Our Precision machining services include:

St. Louis CNC Milling Services

Using CNC milling machines, we’re able to create intricate, close-tolerance  machined parts by removing material from a block of material. What is CNC milling? CNC milling is similar to cutting or drilling, with the ability to remove material from multiple axes. 

We technologically proficient and utilize the latest CAD/CAM software. 

St. Louis CNC Turning Services

Our expert machinists excel at CNC turning projects. What is CNC turning? CNC turning involves using a cutting tool to remove material as a workpiece (raw material) rotates around an axis. Operations that can be done with CNC turning includes turning, facing, grooving, parting, threading, drilling, boring, reaming and tapping. 

Using our CNC lathes, we can machine a wide variety of materials. This includes the ability to machine most metals (including titanium and other challenging alloys), wood and plastic.  CNC turning is ideal for concentric parts (examples include cylinders and shafts). An added benefit is that CNC milling machines are able to achieve very smooth, uniform surface finishes. 

You’ve got a lot of options, if you’re in need of CNC machining services in Jacksonville, Miami, Tampa or Orlando. Companies who choose to work with Distinctive Manufacturing enjoy world-class service and support, our ingenuity, machining knowledge, and quality machined parts.

We ship our precision machined parts across the US

5-Axis CNC Machining

5 Axis CNC machining allows our cutting tools to simultaneously move along 5 axes. This, along with other factors gives us the ability to produce highly accurate, close-tolerance machined parts. We’ll use 5-axis machining for many industries, but it is commonly used for aerospace machining, where the closest tolerances are a requirement. 

With multiple military bases in Jacksonville and across all of Florida, the demand for precision 5-axis machining is high. Whether you’re stationed at Camp Clark, Fort Leonard Wood , Whiteman Air Force Base or with Marine Corps Mobilization Command we can deliver the quality you need.   

Aside from the flexibility we have with our 5 axis machines, an inherent advantage is we can perform multiple machining operations with a single setup. Often referred to as “done in one”, a single setup increases both efficiency and accuracy in parts machining.

We specialize in top quality CNC Machining Services, including metal fabrication, welding services and 3D printing services at competitive pricing

One tool we use to measure your machined parts accuracy is a CMM. Using a CMM, or a Coordinate Measuring Machine, we can precisely measure your machined part along the X, Y and Z axes. Having these capabilities means we don’t have to send your machined parts to a dimensional lab for measurement.
