Introduction
When it comes to safety, performance, and reliability, few sectors demand more precision than automotive and aerospace manufacturing. Every engine, control system, and electrical connector relies on components that must perform perfectly under extreme conditions.
That’s where Screw Machine Products come in.
At AVF Decolletage, we produce millions of high-precision screw machine components using Swiss CAM and CNC technology to meet the exacting requirements of both industries. Whether it’s a brass connector pin for an automotive ECU or a stainless-steel fastener for an aircraft assembly, each part is made to perform flawlessly.
The Role of Screw Machine Products in Automotive Systems
Modern vehicles are filled with advanced electronics, sensors, and mechanical assemblies — all requiring precision-machined parts to operate correctly.
Automotive applications include:
-
Electrical and signal connectors.
-
Fuel and hydraulic fittings.
-
Precision shafts and valve components.
-
Nozzles, plugs, and fasteners.
These screw machine parts are manufactured to endure vibration, temperature changes, and corrosive environments. Using brass, stainless steel, and aluminum, AVF Decolletage ensures every part meets automotive-grade performance.
Aerospace Applications of Screw Machine Products
In aerospace manufacturing, even a microscopic defect can lead to catastrophic failure. That’s why screw machine parts play a key role in ensuring absolute reliability and traceability.
Common aerospace applications:
-
Avionics connectors and contact pins.
-
Hydraulic valve fittings and precision bushings.
-
Fasteners, collars, and couplings.
-
Sensor housings and actuator pins.
At AVF Decolletage, we produce parts with tolerances as tight as ±0.005 mm, inspected under ISO 9001:2015 quality standards. Each part is manufactured for consistency, material integrity, and dimensional precision — essential in aerospace operations.

Meeting Industry Standards and Certifications
Both automotive and aerospace industries operate under strict quality frameworks. AVF Decolletage complies with:
-
ISO 9001:2015 – Quality Management.
-
RoHS & REACH – Environmental compliance.
-
Material certification for each production lot.
By maintaining full traceability and statistical process control, we ensure every lot meets the documentation and precision standards required for international manufacturing programs.
Why Swiss CAM and CNC Are Ideal for These Industries
Swiss screw machines offer unique advantages that make them ideal for aerospace and automotive parts:
-
Tight Tolerances: Ideal for safety-critical components.
-
Superior Surface Finish: Reduces friction and wear.
-
Multi-Axis Machining: Enables complex geometries.
-
Continuous Operation: Supports high-volume consistency.
For example, a brass contact pin for an automotive ECU or a stainless-steel fastener for an aircraft engine requires both precision and repeatability — and Swiss CNC delivers exactly that.
Materials Engineered for Strength and Reliability
The performance of screw machine products depends heavily on material selection.
At AVF Decolletage, we use:
-
Brass (C36000, C17300, C54400): Conductivity and corrosion resistance.
-
Stainless Steel (303, 316, 416): Strength and temperature tolerance.
-
Aluminum (6061, 2017): Lightweight performance for aerospace.
Each batch undergoes material certification and plating verification to guarantee conformity to specifications.
