Welcome to Lima, we are a family business from Lier with more than 35 years of experience in CNC turning and milling.
We combine craftsmanship with modern technology to deliver custom precision parts. Our specialty is complex turning and milling work with short lead times. Fast and direct communication is our strength.
But quality, reliability and personal service are also central to what we do.
Both fast prototypes and the following small and large series are finished with the necessary care and precision.
We help you validate your prototypes quickly before moving on to batch production.
Discover what we can do for your project.
MISSION
Our mission is to support our clients with reliable,
efficient and precise solutions.
We want to take the worry off our clients' hands – by being their specialist in CNC
turning and milling – so they can focus on their own
core business.
VISION
We strive to be the go-to, reliable partner for all your
complex CNC turning and milling work.
We achieve this by forging long-term partnerships with
customers, suppliers and our team members. Thanks to these partnerships,
we are able to deliver CNC components of the highest quality on a daily basis.
SERVICES
Complex turning and milling work is our specialty. Everything needed around it,
we do in-house or with fixed partners.
QUALITY
LIMA is known for its extremely low rejection rates and reliable deliveries,
due to intensive outgoing control. We fully realize that a rejection,
in addition to wasting time, also takes the customer a lot of time to correct this.
With our CNC lathes and milling machines, we make high-quality precision-components for any desired application.
We provide quick delivery of accurate prototypes, as well as in the production of subsequent series work.
Thanks to our flexible planning, balanced machine park, and advanced application of zero-point clamping systems
we can quickly switch for your test models and zero series. We can also carry out one-off piece work at competitive prices.
Below you will find an overview of our possibilities:
VERTICAL MILLING
HORIZONTAL MILLING
5 AX VERTICAL MILLING
TURNING
MULTITASKING
LIMA works with the best subcontractors for the necessary after-treatment of your parts, in which we have the necessary co-expertise.
It is sometimes forgotten that the appropriate choice of materials should already be considered at the design stage.
We can guide you with our 30 years of practical experience

WIJ THINK WITH YOU
Lima engineers think with the customer to find the best possible solution to your problem.
Consider:
- Which material is most suitable for your application?
- What techniques do we work best with to achieve the highest quality result?
- How will we apply this in production?
- Are post-treatments needed?
You don't have a ready-made production drawing? No problem – we will fully measure your part and create the CAD drawing in-house.
