I am looking for a company where I can source mechanical parts.

I have detailed drawings form parts, with all needed information and look for a shop where I can get them made. The tolerances are tight, therefore mostly CNC turning and CNC milling will be required. The Parts are differrent, some are from stainless steel, some from aluminum, otheres are form plastic like POM or PA.

The parts are not big, max size 400x400x400mm, the quantity is different, sometime just one handling arm, another time perhaps some hundred wearing parts.

Does anyone has experience for sourcing parts like this? I would prefer to order out of one hand, but it is no problem as well to order from different sources, i.e. if some shop is only specialized in plastic material and can not make steel.

I am thankful for any feedback, addresses, websites or phone numbers.

cheers,
Charly

I did a similar sourcing in the past. Since the machines costs more (import duties!) than in the Western world and the fully automated process does not require any significant cheap labour input, the costs for the parts are after shipping higher than if they were made in the West.
