Services & Capabilities for Custom CNC Machining
As a leader in medical device manufacturing, Centex Machining by Fathom has built some of the most complex assembled products in the business – experience that sets us apart from the competition.
CNC Machining
CNC Milling & Turning // We use 3-, 4- & 5-Axis CNC milling and turning machines to tackle our customers’ most sophisticated machining needs. Five-axis milling machines enable the cutting tool to approach the workpiece from all directions. This enables them to cut more complex, precise shapes without having multiple handling operations.
Wire EDM Machining // Wire EDM and sinker EDM ensure that we can create your complex geometries with exceptional accuracy.
Welding and Finishing
Laser Etching & Precision Welding // Our TIG welding processes are compliant with AWS standards and are free of all surface and subsurface defects. Building parts with defect-free surfaces is critically important in the medical device manufacturing industry. Any parts that will be used in the human body must be built to the highest standards.
Post Processing
Heat Treating // Heat treatment removes stresses that may build up in the material during processing. It can also be used to enhance the hardness of metals. Chart recordings and hardness testing are archived as required by our customers.
Passivation // Passivation is a chemical treatment for stainless steel and other alloys that enhances the ability of their surfaces to resist corrosion. Centex Machining by Fathom has extensive nitric and citric passivation experience.
Metal Finishing // Vibratory finishing using belting, polishing, grit blasting and shot peening to provide the correct finish.
Chemical/Electrical Finishes // We are experts in cosmetic anodize, hard chrome, electro-polishing and other chemical or electrical finishes. We can easily comply with all surface texturing and finish requirements.
CMM Inspection Services // Including control plans, validations, data collection and analysis per ISO13485 and ISO9001.
Laser Marking // Laser marking ensures traceability, compliance with regulations and enhances patient safety. We can create very fine, detailed markings, essential for identifying small medical instruments and implants.

A Passion For Precision Since 1992
Laser Manufacturing started as a family business back in 1992 serving the semiconductor industry in central Texas. In 2019, we acquired Centex Machining, which added implants into our portfolio of products along with the required medical certifications (ISO13485) and FDA approvals for tooling and implants. In 2022, Centex Machining was acquired by Fathom.
Doing business today as Centex Machining by Fathom, we provide everything from quick turn prototyping to product development and contract manufacturing for the medical and semiconductor industries.
We’re hyper-focused on what our customers need. Our core value is passion for precision. It drives everything we do, every day.
