The finishing touch for your critical components and moulds
In addition to our high-quality machining operations — such as CNC milling, precise surface grinding and ultra-precise wire EDM — precision benchwork forms a crucial link within Tumag’s overall service offering. Where machines stop, our craftsmanship ensures the perfect fit, finishing and assembly of your critical components.
Our specialties in precision benchwork
As an innovative and versatile partner in high-tech metalworking, we take your products to the next level. Our benchwork department combines traditional craftsmanship with the latest technologies to meet the strictest tolerances and quality requirements in the B2B industry.
In the high-tech industry and mould making, flawless assembly is essential. Our specialists handle the ultra-precise assembly of complex mechanical components and sub-assemblies. Thanks to our keen eye for detail, we ensure that all parts fit together perfectly and function according to your exact specifications.
A perfect surface finish is often decisive for the performance of a product or mould. Whether it concerns functional polishing for optimal release or achieving a mirror finish (high-gloss finish) with extremely low Ra values, our polishers master the technique down to the finest detail to completely eliminate micro-imperfections.
For extremely precise joining, modifications or repair work on critical components, we use advanced laser welding. This technology minimises the heat input (Heat Affected Zone), preventing material distortion and allowing us to carry out repairs or adjustments even on the most microscopic scale while preserving material integrity.
Traceability and permanent identification have become indispensable in the modern production chain. With our laser engraving systems, we provide parts, moulds and tools with razor-sharp and wear-resistant markings. From barcodes and serial numbers to complex logos and micro-engravings, we engrave flexibly on various metals and alloys without affecting the geometry of the product.

Frequently asked questions about precision benchwork (FAQ)
What is precision benchwork and why is it essential for mould making?
Precision benchwork includes all manual and high-tech finishing operations that follow mechanical machining. Within mould making, this specialty is crucial for fine-tuning; it guarantees the exact fit of mould components, minimal surface roughness and flawless release of the final product.
Can Tumag also carry out specialist finishing operations on customer-supplied components?
Yes, that is certainly possible. Although we prefer to handle the entire chain from machining to delivery, you can also come to us purely for individual specialist benchwork operations. We also carry out precise polishing, laser welding or laser engraving on components supplied by you.
What batch sizes is the precision benchwork department set up for?
Our benchwork and assembly department is designed for maximum flexibility. We specialise in the fine adjustment and assembly of unique pieces (such as complex moulds and prototypes), but we also have the capacity and processes in place to efficiently handle small to medium-sized series of precision mechanical components.
How does Tumag guarantee the accuracy and quality of manual benchwork?
Our craftsmanship is supported by advanced measuring technology. In addition to visual inspection under microscopes by our experienced benchwork specialists, we inspect critical fits and tolerances in our climate-controlled measuring room using 3D measuring machines. This gives you the certainty that the manual finishing exactly meets the digital specifications.
How does Tumag ensure cleanliness during the assembly of precision mechanical components?
We assemble complex high-tech sub-assemblies and precision mechanical components in a separate, controlled and strictly organised assembly environment. Although this is not a certified cleanroom, this low-dust and climate-controlled area ensures that critical precision parts remain completely free from grease, dust or other contamination during assembly.
