About ForceWerks
Precision Manufacturing. Engineering Expertise. Built to Perform.
ForceWerks brings more than 30 years of manufacturing engineering experience to every project. Founded and led by Michael Whitten, our team combines deep hands-on manufacturing knowledge with advanced engineering and CNC machining capabilities to deliver high-quality solutions for demanding applications.
Engineering & Manufacturing Expertise
An engineering-first approach to every job.
ForceWerks specializes in 2- to 5-axis CNC milling, workholding, engineering, and general manufacturing. Whether you need a precision-machined component, a complex fixture, a manufacturable design, or support solving a challenging production problem, we bring an engineering-first approach to the job.
We design and program using SOLIDWORKS and CAMWorks, two of the industry's leading CAD/CAM solutions. Whenever possible, we use integrated CAM to create a streamlined workflow from engineering design through CNC programming — helping improve accuracy, efficiency, and consistency.
Our team is trained and certified in SOLIDWORKS and has extensive experience developing complex models and assemblies for product design, tooling, and machine design. We also provide CAD model repair, general modeling, and engineering support when existing designs need to be refined, corrected, or prepared for manufacturing.
Our experience includes supporting demanding manufacturing environments for organizations ranging from innovative startups to Fortune 500 manufacturers.
Advanced Workholding
Effective workholding is critical to precision machining.
Custom Workholding Fixtures
ForceWerks designs and builds custom workholding fixtures tailored to the requirements of your application — from one-off fixtures to sophisticated production solutions.
Hydraulic & Pneumatic Clamping
We design and build hydraulically and pneumatically actuated clamping systems for applications that require reliable, repeatable, and efficient workholding.
Secure, Repeatable Positioning
Every fixture is designed with practical, reliable positioning in mind — supporting efficient machining and consistent part quality across every run.
Production-Ready Solutions
Whether the requirement is a single fixture or a more sophisticated production workholding system, we focus on designs that perform reliably in real manufacturing environments.
