CNC turning is used to produce accurate round and cylindrical metal parts by rotating the material while cutting tools shape the outside diameter, inside diameter, faces, grooves, threads, and other features.
KO Laser provides CNC turning for customers in Tulsa and throughout the United States who need custom components, replacement parts, prototypes, short runs, or repeat production work.
Every turned part has its own requirements, so we review the material, dimensions, features, quantity, and intended use before determining the best way to produce it.
CNC turning is a practical choice for parts that require consistent round geometry, close fit, or repeatable machined features.
KO Laser can help produce:
If your project includes both machined and fabricated components, CNC turning can also be coordinated with laser cutting, forming, welding, and other fabrication services.
Material choice affects how a part machines, performs, and holds up in its final application.
Steel is commonly used for shafts, pins, spacers, adapters, hardware, and other durable machined components.
Stainless steel is often selected when corrosion resistance, strength, appearance, or long-term durability are important.
Aluminum is a lightweight, corrosion-resistant option for turned parts where reduced weight and easy machinability are beneficial.
Material grades and project requirements vary, so contact KO Laser to confirm whether your specific material and part are a good fit for our turning capabilities.
Not every turned part starts with a large production order.
KO Laser works with customers who need a single custom component, a prototype, a replacement for a worn or unavailable part, a small batch, or an ongoing production run.
If you already have a drawing, CAD file, dimensions, photo, sample, or existing component, send us what you have. We can review the information and determine the best next step.
Some projects require more than one manufacturing process.
A turned component may be used alongside laser-cut plates, formed sheet metal, welded assemblies, or other fabricated parts. Working with one shop for multiple stages can simplify communication and reduce the number of vendors involved.
KO Laser can help coordinate CNC turning with other metal fabrication services when the project calls for it.
KO Laser is a Tulsa-based CNC turning and metal fabrication shop serving local customers as well as businesses throughout the United States.
As a smaller, responsive shop, we can evaluate a wide range of turned parts without limiting our work to one specific industry or project type.
If you need a custom round component, replacement part, prototype, or production quantity, send us the details and we will let you know whether the project is a good fit.
