Precision Swiss-style turned components in small diameters and difficult alloys, running at production volume
Facilities
Bergeron Machine
Paul Bergeron founded Bergeron Machine in 1948. For more than 75 years, the company has built its reputation around one process: precision Swiss-style turned components from difficult materials at production volume. Chuck Bergeron, the founder’s son, later ran the company before Compass Precision acquired Bergeron Machine in 2023.
Bergeron runs more than two dozen highly automated Swiss screw machines. The work is almost entirely small-diameter, 1/8 inch to 1-1/4 inch, in materials most Swiss shops prefer not to quote: Inconel, Monel, titanium, and other high-temperature, high-strength alloys.
As part of the Compass Precision platform, Bergeron Machine gives customers the Swiss-turning depth of a dedicated specialist backed by the broader capacity, shared systems, and coordinated support of a multi-site manufacturing platform.
Capabilities
Where They Excel
Small Diameters, Difficult Alloys
Bergeron takes on the small-diameter, difficult-material work that makes most Swiss shops decline to quote. Inconel, Monel, and titanium behave differently on a Swiss machine than free-machining steel, and Bergeron’s guide-bushing setup and tooling strategy are built specifically around holding tolerance in those materials at production volume.
Core Capabilities
Shared Platform Capabilities
Swiss-Style
CNC Turning
More than two dozen automated Swiss screw machines run production volume with guide-bushing accuracy across the full run.
Small-Diameter Range
Parts from 1/8 inch to 1-1/4 inch cover a diameter range most Swiss shops cannot economically run.
Difficult Materials
Inconel, Monel, titanium, and other specialty alloys are a daily material at Bergeron, not an exception.
Material Experience
Inconel, Monel, titanium, and other high-temperature, high-strength alloys.

Although the components met drawing requirements, we worked with the customer’s engineering team to change the product design to reduce failures after assembly. The yield rate has gone from 70% to 100%.
