About PDC Precision Technologies
Built by a Machinist. Run by a Machinist.
25 years behind the spindle. One standard: perfect.
The PDC Story
PDC Precision Technologies was founded on a simple premise: a machine shop run by someone who actually machines parts produces better parts. Not managed from an office. Not delegated down a chain. Built by a Master Machinist who has spent 25 years at the controls.
Our founder has run precision machining operations generating $30 million a year — managing equipment, people, processes, and quality systems at scale. That experience doesn't just inform how we run the shop. It defines what we're willing to accept off the machine.
PDC is based in Knoxville, Tennessee. We machine aluminum, steel, and plastics for customers who can't afford a bad part. Aerospace. Defense. Industrial. If the tolerance matters, we're the shop you call.
Master Machinist Credentials
25 Years Experience
Two and a half decades of hands-on precision machining — from manual mills and lathes to modern multi-axis CNC centers. Every material. Every tolerance.
$30M Operations Managed
Ran precision machining operations at scale — managing equipment, workflow, quality systems, and production output at the $30M annual revenue level.
Multi-Axis CNC Expertise
Deep experience with 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis CNC milling and turning. Toolpath programming, fixturing, and setup for complex geometries.
Exotic Material Specialist
Titanium, Inconel, Hastelloy, and high-performance polymers. Materials that demand specialized feeds, speeds, and tooling — and the experience to run them right.
Quality-First Process
Every part inspected before it ships. CMM and manual inspection. First article inspection available. No part leaves the shop that doesn't meet print.
Knoxville, Tennessee
Locally owned and operated in Knoxville, TN. Serving customers across the Southeast and nationally for precision-critical applications.
How We Work
Tolerance is non-negotiable
We hold the tolerance on the print. Not close. Not within reason. On the print. If we can't hold it, we say so before we cut — not after.
The machinist is accountable
Every part that comes off our machines was set up and inspected by someone who cares about the outcome. No handoffs to someone who doesn't know the job.
Fast quotes, honest answers
We review your print and give you a real answer fast. If there's a problem with the design or the tolerance, we'll tell you — because catching it before we cut saves everyone time.
Prototype to production, same standard
We don't run prototypes loose and tighten up for production. The first part and the thousandth part are held to the same standard.
