Hello everyone, i am not sure I am finding the right term to translate this expression, it is in a website for a company:

XX réalise également des pièces taillées dans la masse et propose un large éventail de prestations de précision : tournage, fraisage, rectification, finition, jusqu’à l’assemblage.

It would probably help if you told us what solutions you've been considering?
This is certainly the underlying meaning — though I'm not too sure that it sounds suitably technical. But I can't offhand think of a better way of expressing it. You may well find you can re-phrase it to make it sound more 'posh'.

: Just that 'milled' may be too specific, and over-translation. 'machined' is a safer bet.
