The old adage that “Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance” is true.

So we work with you to create success from the start of the manufacturing process, with complete engineering and process planning to reduce risks and guarantee outcomes.

The Baker team is organized to enable integrated engineering and machining services so your entire project is managed, not just a single element.

Mission-critical parts can’t fail. Simply over-engineering everything might have been OK in the slide rule days, but that doesn’t work when efficiency is a requirement, metal prices change daily, and global supply chains are scrutinized at every point.

That’s why the Baker team works closely with you to build-in purpose and eliminate waste.

Baker Manufacturing owns a wide range of advanced vertical and horizontal CNC machines, lathes, and mills at multiple Baker facilities in the United States. And our committed supplier network enables us to leverage the talents and specialties of local machine shops that we proudly do business with, some for over 50 years.

Every part made by Baker is machined according to the detailed engineering and planning process that is critical to all production, from novel R&D work to long-term, industrial-scale production and delivery.

Test runs and in-process inspections allow us to discover even the most minuscule challenge to the production plan early in the manufacturing process, so we can work with you ASAP to solve and produce.

Baker machinists and metalworkers are true craftsman, who take absolute pride in whatever they produce.

With Baker’s full suite of inspection tools, gauges, micrometers, granite tables, and state-of-the-art 3D scanning systems, we are able to maintain the strict standards defined in our ISO9001:2015 and AS9100D certifications, with NADCAP processing as required. The products we make can be MIL-SPEC certified.

The Baker Inspection Process can include DFARS-level documentation, with trace mineral / Material Safety Data, country-of-origin tracing, and digital file documentation with thousand-point 3D scanning.

Product finishing is a key function defined in the engineering and production plan, with the ultimate end-state visualized throughout the manufacturing process, from choosing the right metal block to the final polish and packaging.

Whether your part is anodized, painted, or polished, it should look like a work of art.

When you receive your final product from Baker, it will be clean, error-free, and a fine example of the highest quality for everything we produce.

In addition to Baker’s environmentally-conscious machining and recycling processes, we use certified cleaning products and environmentally-friendly packaging. For the space/satellite industry, we can clean-room vacuum pack your parts or assemblies with provenance assurance you can count on when you open those products in your own clean room.

We provide coordinated identification marks and placards along with product documentation, so your receiving team will be able to rapidly process products into your workflow. We use our own regional delivery trucks, and provide end-to-end tracking with photos and tagging for professional shipping.
