Turning & Mechanical Machining

Dimensional stability in turned parts, precisely fitted functional surfaces and consistent quality: Albrecht produces precision-machined components for mechanical engineering, plant engineering and tank construction.

Precision components for demanding applications

Turning & mechanical machining

Turning is one of the core machining processes at Albrecht. Wherever rotationally symmetrical components with tight tolerances are required, our mechanical machining ensures dimensional accuracy and operational reliability.

Whether flanges, shafts, bushings or complex fasteners, we manufacture to drawings, specifications or samples.

Performance Specifications, Dimensions & Tolerances for Turning

  • CNC and conventional turning
  • Internal and external turning
  • Flat and longitudinal turning
  • Thread turning
  • Fitting and finishing
  • Individual parts and small batches

Typical workpiece diameters and lengths as per project requirements.
Tolerances in accordance with drawing specifications and technical specifications.

Turning as a process at Albrecht

In-house processing

In-house processing

Once turning is complete, all further processing takes place directly at Albrecht. This includes milling, drilling, countersinking, thread cutting, as well as weld edge finishing and surface preparation. Turned components are integrated into our assembly production without any external interfaces – efficiently, precisely and on schedule.

From turned component to finished assembly

From turned component to finished assembly

Turned components often form the basis for flange connections, pressure components, shafts or bearing housings in plant and vessel construction. At Albrecht, these are transformed into complete assemblies, from the raw material through to cutting and machining, right through to welding, blasting or pickling. All processes are optimally coordinated with one another.

Machinery & Technology

Our turning operations are CNC-controlled and carried out with process reliability. Integration into our modern machinery enables reproducible results and cost-effective production – from individual parts to series production.

The close integration with cutting processes, milling, welding, blasting and pickling creates an efficient end-to-end process, resulting in components ready for installation.

Quality and Control

Precision turned parts: documented and inspected

Our machining processes are carried out in accordance with clearly defined quality standards. Particularly for safety-critical applications, we ensure full traceability and documented inspection processes.

  • Dimensional and visual inspections
  • Material certificates (e.g. 3.1 / 3.2)
  • Traceability of materials
  • Test reports on request

All certificates available for download

Complete production and inspection documentation can be provided for each project, such as material certificates or welding documentation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about turning

Which materials can be machined by turning?

We process unalloyed and alloyed steels, stainless steel (e.g. 1.4301, 1.4404, 1.4571), duplex and super-duplex steels, as well as project-specific special materials. Materials for pressure equipment applications in accordance with the PED are also available.

Is it possible to achieve tight tolerances?

Yes. Manufacturing is carried out in accordance with the specifications in the drawings. Tight tolerances and fits are achieved using CNC technology. Dimensional and visual inspections ensure the required accuracy.

Do you manufacture individual parts or production runs?

Both. We manufacture individual parts, spare parts, small batches and project-specific series production – cost-effectively and consistently.

Can turned parts be processed further straight away?

Yes. Turned components are processed further in-house, for example by:

This results in ready-to-assemble sub-assemblies with no external interfaces.

Are pressure-bearing components possible?

Yes. Thanks to our certifications (including AD 2000 HP0 and PED 2014/68/EU), we are able to manufacture turned components for safety-critical applications in the construction of pressure equipment and vessels.
