About United Precision Machining

Production Machining Built Around Your Requirements

United Precision Machining is an Edina, Minnesota CNC machine shop with more than 20 years of machining experience. We produce repeat-production components using Swiss machining, CNC turning, and CNC milling.

Our equipment includes a Swiss machine, a CNC lathe, and CNC mills. This combination allows us to produce small turned components, milled parts, and components requiring multiple machining operations. We work with customers needing quantities ranging from short production runs to repeat orders involving thousands of parts.

Metals and Engineered Plastics

UPM has experience machining a wide range of metals and engineered plastics, including:

  • Aluminum

  • Stainless steel

  • Brass

  • Carbon steel

  • Tool steel

  • Acetal and Delrin

  • Nylon

  • PEEK

  • PTFE and Teflon

  • UHMW

  • PVC

  • Polycarbonate

  • Ultem

  • PVDF

  • Acrylic

  • Other engineering plastics

We understand that plastics and metals require different tooling, fixturing, speeds, feeds, and inspection practices. Our experience with both material groups helps us select an effective manufacturing process for each component.

Focused on Repeat Production

Our shop is structured to support customers who need reliable, repeat production. Before beginning a job, we review the drawing, material, quantities, tolerances, and delivery requirements. During production, we monitor the process and inspect parts to help maintain consistency throughout the order.

Our capabilities include:

  • Swiss machining

  • CNC turning

  • Three-axis CNC milling

  • Short and long production runs

  • Repeat-order production

  • Metal and plastic machining

  • In-process and final inspection

  • Secondary-operation coordination

  • Responsive quoting and communication

A Responsive Manufacturing Partner

As a smaller machine shop, we provide direct communication and personal attention. Customers can speak with someone who understands their parts, production requirements, and delivery expectations.

We work to identify questions before production begins, communicate promptly when an issue arises, and develop practical solutions that balance quality, cost, and delivery. Our goal is to become a dependable extension of each customer’s supply chain—not simply a source for a single order.
