New technological innovations are introduced every year, but if you keep your eyes open, you’ll see shifts that can turn into trends in the CNC machining industry.
Do you rely on a request for quote (RFQ) to get accurate pricing from your CNC machining partners? This vital process not only results in a quote but also provides details about timelines, capabilities, machining techniques, external services, and more. It also serves as a guide after the work has been awarded.
For more than 50 years, Stecker Machine has been a leader in CNC machining, serving customers both big and small. So, why talk about our vision, mission, and core values now when it’s been a driving force for decades?
Different types of CNC machines, and their various processes, handle different custom machining projects. That’s not exactly breaking news. Yet, what may be unclear is which major factors impact machine parts cost.
In the world of CNC machining, precise measurements are what we do, often to .001”.
Yet, there’s another form of measuring going on, or at least there should be: measuring performance. Manufacturing KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) help businesses evaluate performance in order to make strategic adjustments.
With so many possible KPIs to use, trying to fully understand them can leave your head spinning faster than a PCD insert in a 90° square shoulder face mill (a little CNC machining humor for you). So, this article is an attempt to simplify KPIs by providing an overview of them, not a deep dive.
A year ago, I shared my thoughts on what 2020 would look like in the CNC machining industry. Sure, some of those predictions did happen, but a global pandemic turned many things upside down.

Stecker Machine Company, IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 certified, high-precision CNC machining company, recently completed a 77,700-square-foot addition to the company’s second facility to meet growing customer demand for high-quality, accurate machining and assembly. The Butler® pre-engineered steel structure was constructed by Manitowoc’s A.C.E. Building Service, the project’s design and build contractor.
