The principle of Swiss turning originated in Switzerland in the 1800s, initially used to produce watch parts. It is basically a manufacturing process for turning very small, intricate, and often long workpieces. The machinery to carry out such a process is what we often referred to as the ‘Swiss-type lathe’.

Swiss CNC machining refers to the process where complex parts are manufactured in the short run. The process is carried out by the Swiss lathe. Originated from the Swiss watchmaking industry, a Swiss lathe machine (Swiss-type lathe) is a multi-axis turning center that excels at tight-tolerance machining operations.

A table band saw is an automatic sawing machine. It is a multi-point machine that cuts materials in preparation for other processes. Such a tool is so useful that most woodworking and metalworking shops have at least one. Craftsmen and hobbyists find light-duty table band saws useful for their work. Heavy-duty band saws on the other hand are advantageous for industrial purposes.
