Custom Automation Equipment Parts Manufacturer

As an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer, DEK machines high-precision components for automation equipment to ±0.005 mm, in aluminum alloys, stainless steel, carbon steel and engineering plastics, so every part stays durable and wear-resistant.

Typical applications include EOATs, jigs, gears, shafts, robotic arm joint housings and structural frames. Parts can be CNC machined and finished with anodizing, electroplating, black oxide or passivation, with all inspection done in-house.

What Automation Buyers Need

  • Tolerances held to ±0.005 mm on production-grade materials
  • Both low and high volumes, with no minimum order quantity
  • CMM inspection reports, FAI reports and material certificates
  • RoHS certifications supplied with the parts

Typical Automation Components

From mounting plates to robot base frames, we machine the structural and motion parts that automation equipment is built on.

Automation Component Manufacturing Capabilities

Machining processes, finishes, inspection and lead times for automation parts, from one prototype to batch production.

  • Precision CNC Machining for Automation

    Multi-axis CNC machining, precision turning and complex component manufacturing meet the stringent requirements of automation applications.

    • Milling, grinding, turning, boring and reaming
    • Spline shafts and custom gripper jaws
    • Fixture base plates and bearing housings
    • Tolerances as tight as ±0.005 mm

  • CNC Machining + Surface Finish

    Machined automation parts can ship with a finish applied in the same order, for wear and corrosion protection.

    • Anodizing for aluminum frames and housings
    • Electroplating for conductive or protective layers
    • Black oxide for steel gears and shafts
    • Passivation for stainless steel parts

Automation Parts Buying FAQs

Common questions from automation equipment buyers and engineers.

How do you ensure the confidentiality of our designs?
We readily sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before you share any proprietary files. Internal data is securely managed to protect your intellectual property.
What precision levels can DEK achieve for custom parts in automation applications?
DEK holds tolerances as tight as ±0.005 mm on CNC machined automation components, depending on material and process. Equipment and rigorous quality control keep parts to exact specifications for robotics, actuators and other automation systems.
How does DEK ensure the quality of parts for automation projects?
We run a multi-stage quality process: material certification, in-process inspections and final dimensional verification using CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) and laser scanning. All parts comply with ISO 9001:2015 standards.
What are your typical lead times for custom prototypes and production runs?
Rapid prototypes take 5-7 business days and low-volume production 2-3 weeks. Actual lead time depends on part complexity, materials and our production schedule; you get a reliable delivery date with your quote, and urgent jobs can be expedited.
What range of materials do you work with?
We work with materials suited to automation demands, including various grades of aluminum, stainless steel, alloy steels, and engineering plastics such as Delrin (POM), PEEK and Nylon.
How do I request materials not listed on the site?
Contact [email protected] with the specialized material you need. We have a wide range of material options, so we can meet your needs in most cases.
How do I submit my designs, and what file formats do you accept?
Send your 3D CAD files to [email protected] or through the quote form. We accept STEP, IGES, STL and SolidWorks (.sldprt). Include a 2D drawing with critical dimensions, tolerances and surface finish notes for an accurate quote.
