What CNCenter does

CNCenter Oy is a Finnish B2B contract manufacturer specializing in demanding CNC machining, thin sheet and tubular products, and their integration into finished assemblies. The company serves industrial original equipment manufacturers across at least seven end-markets, including paper machines, health technology devices, analytical and research instruments, transportation (special vehicles, work machines, rail), defense and maritime, and public infrastructure (shop fitting, grandstands). Operations are split across three sites in Finland: a machining-focused headquarters in Espoo's Kauklahti district, a sheet-metal, tube, welding and powder-coating plant in Riihimäki, and an assembly-and-machining facility in Urjala.

The technical backbone is a roughly 40-unit machine park spanning 5-axis HAAS UMC500 machining centers with pallet pools, five Mazak Integrex multi-tasking lathes, HAAS 3- and 4-axis milling and turning cells, Bystronic BySprint Fiber 4kW laser cutting (up to 15 mm), Omax waterjet cutting (up to 150 mm), robotic MIG/TIG welding, and an automated powder coating line of approximately 130 meters certified to the C4 corrosion resistance class. This asset base supports six integrated service lines — machining, sheet/tube products, water and laser cutting, welding, assembly, and powder coating — enabling one-stop delivery from design support and prototyping through to serialized production and finishing. Materials handled span stainless and special steels, aluminum, copper, brass, titanium, and engineering plastics.

Commercial operations are entirely domestic and conducted via direct enterprise field sales, with quote-based project pricing (no published price list) and multi-year contract cadence against industrial OEM engineering and procurement teams. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Laiho Industries Oy, a Finnish metal and engineering conglomerate with ~€23M of combined group revenue across ~150 employees; CNCenter itself generates approximately €10M of revenue with ~85 staff and is privately held with no venture or external investor capital.

Core offering

CNCenter Oy is a subcontracting machine shop and contract manufacturer providing precision CNC machining (milling and turning of light to medium-weight parts across all machinable materials), sheet metal and tube products (laser and waterjet cutting, bending), welding (MIG, TIG, robotic), assembly, and powder coating with C4 corrosion resistance. Operations are integrated across three Finnish production facilities to deliver complete turnkey solutions from design support and prototyping through serial production and finished assemblies for industrial OEM customers.

Product overview

CNCenter Oy is a contract manufacturing company offering a comprehensive suite of metalworking services organized into six core service lines: Koneistuspalvelut (CNC Machining — milling and turning), Levy- ja putkituotteet (Sheet Metal and Tube Products), Vesi- ja laserleikkaus (Water and Laser Cutting), Hitsaus (Welding), Kokoonpano (Assembly), and Jauhemaalaus ja pintakäsittely (Powder Coating and Surface Treatment). These services are integrated under one roof across three production facilities in Espoo, Riihimäki, and Urjala, enabling CNCenter to deliver complete turnkey solutions — from precision machining and cutting through welding, assembly, and finishing — for customers in industries including paper machines, health technology, research instruments, commercial fixtures, industrial valves, transport systems, and shipyard equipment. The company operates approximately 40 CNC machining centers and lathes and employs around 85 people with annual revenue of approximately €10M.
