Precision Machining of Shim Washers

Precision machining is a cornerstone of shim washer manufacturing. Every washer, from tab washers to countersunk washers and machined washers, must adhere to strict dimensional tolerances. CNC machining, surface grinding, and thickness calibration machines are used to achieve exact specifications, ensuring that washers fit perfectly in assemblies and distribute loads evenly. Misalignment or incorrect thickness can lead to vibration, premature wear, and operational inefficiency in industrial machinery.

After machining, washers like stainless steel washers, Ogee washers, and fender washers undergo deburring and edge finishing to remove imperfections. This process improves safety during installation and ensures smooth contact with mechanical surfaces. Whether it’s a spring lock washer, wedge lock washer, or external tooth lock washer, precision machining guarantees that every component functions reliably under high stress, contributing to the overall longevity and performance of machines.
