Overview

NTM’s Swiss screw machining operation in Newport, PA runs 6 Hanwha and Nomura screw machines. This equipment produces high-volume, tight-tolerance small diameter parts for aerospace, medical, military, firearm, and advanced marine applications.

NTM has delivered Swiss screw machining in Newport, PA since 1972. Travis Dillman, our turning and Swiss screw programmer and machinist, joined NTM straight out of high school and brings 25 years of hands-on experience to every job.

When you bring a part to NTM, the person programming it works hand and hand with the operator on the machine. As a result, there are no blind handoffs, no miscommunication, and no gaps between intent and execution.

How It Works

How our Newport PA Swiss screw shop works

01

Drawing Review

We review your drawings, or build one with you in SolidWorks if you're starting from scratch, so every program reflects your part, not a template.

02

Programming

Travis Dillman programs your job in Mastercam or Esprit. With 25 years in turning and Swiss screw, the person writing your program is the one running your machine.

03

Setup

We configure the machine specifically for your part. Swiss machining excels at high-volume, tight-tolerance small diameter work, and every setup reflects that standard.

04

Machining

Travis runs your job from program to finished part. No handoffs between departments, no miscommunication between programming and production.

05

Inspection

Every order ships with documented inspection using Geo Met 101 and CMM Manager. Nothing leaves NTM without a record.

Can one shop handle both prototype and production?

Yes, and at NTM, all Swiss screw machining runs on the same floor with the same team. There's no gap between the programmer who built your prototype and the machinist running production. If a drawing needs to change between the two, we make that adjustment before a single production part runs.
