Where capability sits

A Production Network Built Around Your Component

Different parts require different processes. We show how machining, assembly, affiliated production, and specialist processes come together for your component.

Layer 01 / Shanghai

Engineering & Commercial Hub

620 m²38 staff

Our Shanghai headquarters handles engineering, quality management, purchasing, and international business, keeping customer requirements connected to the production route.

Layer 02 / Ningbo

Own Precision Machining Facility

2,200 m²48 machines30 staff

The Ningbo facility supports turning, milling, CNC machining, grinding, drilling, tapping, punching, bending, assembly, and packing. Forging, heat treatment, welding, and surface finishing are coordinated through external qualified processes when required.

Layer 03 / Wuxi, Jiangsu

Affiliated Rod End & Ball Joint Base

6,000 m²66 machines2 lines

This closely affiliated production base focuses on rod ends and ball joints. Its SGS-assessed production line reports a monthly capacity of 200,000 pieces and includes machining, grinding, thread rolling, assembly, and inspection.

Layer 03 / Taixing, Jiangsu

Affiliated Structural & Sheet-Metal Base

5,313 m²68 units4 lines

This affiliated base supports structural components and sheet-metal work, including laser cutting, CNC machining, forming, robotic welding, and coating for suitable programs.

The Wuxi and Taixing sites are separate affiliated production companies, each with its own equipment and product focus. Contact us to match your component to the appropriate route.

Capability routing

The Right Process for the Right Component

The right production route connects each process with the equipment and quality controls your component requires.

Precision machining
Primary routeNingbo own facility and Wuxi affiliated base for turning, milling, CNC machining, drilling, and related production work.
Grinding & threads
Primary routeGrinding, tapping, and thread rolling are assigned according to product family, equipment, and drawing requirements.
Assembly
Primary routeIn-house assembly is available at the Ningbo and Wuxi production routes, with torque and fit requirements defined by the product or order.
Structures
Primary routeTaixing affiliated production capacity supports laser cutting, forming, CNC work, welded structures, and suitable coating programs.
Special processes
Qualified external routeForging, heat treatment, welding, and surface finishing may be coordinated through qualified external suppliers when the selected product route requires them.
From drawing to shipment

A Practical Manufacturing Workflow

The exact route depends on the component, material, volume, and required finish. The workflow below shows how a custom program is reviewed and controlled.

01

Requirement Review

We review your drawing, sample, application, quantity, tolerances, and delivery target before selecting a production route.

Shanghai engineering & commercial team
02

Process Planning

Manufacturing steps, material documentation, inspection needs, and any external process requirements are identified.

Engineering + quality coordination
03

Sample or Pilot

A sample or pilot run verifies fit, dimensions, thread direction, assembly, and the agreed inspection criteria.

Selected production route
04

Production Control

Machining, forming, thread work, assembly, or other approved processes follow the drawing and process documentation.

Assigned facility or supplier
05

Inspection & Records

Incoming documentation, first-article checks, in-process checks, dimensional inspection, and final inspection are applied as required.

Quality plan by order
06

Pack & Ship

Approved goods are packed for the agreed logistics route, with material and inspection documents available according to the order.

Final coordination by SYZ

Some components combine machining with specialist processes such as forging, heat treatment, welding, or surface finishing. We explain the route during drawing review.

Quality control

Quality Is Built Into the Route

Quality requirements are defined before production starts and matched to the selected facility, process, and customer inspection plan.

Material reviewMaterial certificates and incoming checks are reviewed before release to production.
First articleInitial parts are checked against the drawing and agreed inspection requirements.
Process checksIn-process checks and written work instructions support production consistency.
Dimensional controlCMM, optical projection, hardness testing, and other checks are used where required by the route.
Final inspectionFinished goods follow 100% inspection, sampling, or a customer-specified plan.
Corrective actionDocumented corrective and preventive action is available when a quality issue requires it.
OEM / ODM support

Custom Production Starts With Your Requirements

Send a drawing, sample, or clear application requirement. We will review the design, clarify the production route, and recommend the next practical step.

01

Drawings & Samples

We support drawing-based and sample-based development for rod ends, spherical components, linkages, and related machined parts.

02

Inch & Metric

Metric and imperial dimensions, right-hand and left-hand threads, and application-specific interfaces are reviewed from the drawing.

03

Material Review

Material selection is confirmed against the product line, load, corrosion environment, weight target, and available documentation.

04

Custom Geometry

Special shanks, offsets, mounting features, clearances, and linkage interfaces can be evaluated for manufacturability.

05

Documented Approval

Samples, inspection criteria, packaging, labels, and customer-specific documentation are clarified before volume production.

06

Program Support

Material certificates, dimensional reports, and OEM documentation can be included according to the program requirements.

Procurement questions

Manufacturing Capability FAQ

Short answers to the questions buyers usually ask before sending a drawing.

Are you a manufacturer or a trading company?
SYZ Machine combines Shanghai-based engineering, quality, purchasing, and international business with production at our own Ningbo facility and closely affiliated Jiangsu bases.
What is made at the Ningbo facility?
Ningbo focuses on precision machining and related in-house work, including turning, milling, CNC machining, grinding, drilling, tapping, punching, bending, assembly, and packing. Forging, heat treatment, welding, and surface finishing may use qualified external processes.
Can you manufacture from a drawing or sample?
Yes. Send a 2D or 3D drawing, a physical sample, or an application brief. We will review dimensions, tolerances, material, thread direction, quantity, and inspection requirements before confirming the production route.
What is your typical MOQ and lead time?
The typical MOQ is 100–300 pieces per item, while stock products may be available in smaller quantities. Timing depends on the product line and process; sample and production timing are confirmed with the quotation.
What quality documents can you provide?
For the product and order, we can provide material certificates, dimensional inspection reports, inspection plans, and OEM documentation. Quality checks may include dimensional, thread, hardness, and customer-specified inspections.
Can customers arrange an audit or third-party inspection?
Client visits and third-party inspections can be arranged for the relevant production site. Contact us so we can coordinate the site and inspection scope.

Have a Drawing or Production Requirement?

Send the part drawing, sample details, target quantity, material requirement, and application. Our team will review the manufacturing route and next step.
