CNC Manufacturing Capabilities for Bicycle Components

MTB Chainring Bolts

By abandoning the precision errors and structural defects of traditional casting and stamping processes, a complete set of CNC precision machining equipment is used to ensure the fit and service life of each crankset.

  • 5-axis simultaneous machining
  • High-precision aluminum machining
  • Deep cavity machining for lightweight parts
  • Thread milling for high-load interfaces
  • Tight tolerance control (±0.01 mm)
