For OEM machine builders, motion components should fit seamlessly into the design, not require the design to work around them.

Gilman Precision partners with OEM engineering teams to develop slides and spindles tailored to each machine’s unique requirements. From initial design through final assembly, our team provides hands-on engineering support and custom capabilities to help solve the most demanding motion challenges.

Because sometimes the right solution starts with understanding the machine first.

Not every engineering challenge has an off-the-shelf solution.

When standard components do not meet your application's requirements, Gilman Precision can help bridge the gap with custom slides, custom spindles, and direct engineering expertise.

Gilman Precision works directly with engineers to develop custom slides, custom spindles, and precision motion solutions around the demands of the application.

Building a high-performing motion system starts with choosing the right slide for the job. Need a hardened boxway to handle heavy cutting loads, or a compact dovetail slide for a tight machine footprint? We build the hardware to back it up. Dial in your specs and get the job done right.

Different setups demand different approaches to precision motion. Explore Gilman’s slide solutions and find the right fit for your next build: https://gilmanprecision.com/slides/

As production moves closer to home, OEMs and machine builders are taking a closer look at what they need from their precision motion suppliers.

Component specifications still matter, but they are only part of the equation. Engineering collaboration, reliability, responsiveness, and access to domestic manufacturing expertise can all play a role in building a more resilient supply chain.

Gilman Precision supports OEMs and machine builders with custom spindles, precision linear slides, and engineered motion solutions designed around specialized application requirements.

A spindle can meet every specification on paper and still fall short in the real world.

Complex automation systems demand more than a component that checks the boxes. Tight tolerances, material control, specialized machining expertise, and engineering support all play a role in how a spindle performs within the larger system.

That’s where the right engineering partner makes a difference.

With decades of experience designing and manufacturing high-performance machine tool spindles and precision linear slides, Gilman Precision brings the expertise needed to address the bigger picture.

A couple of microns might not sound like much, but tiny errors make big noise on the shop floor. Minor runout or alignment issues quickly spiral into excessive vibration, worn parts, and costly downtime.

When tolerances are tight, catching microscopic variables is everything. Paying attention to the smallest details is what protects your bottom line.
