Everyone loves Apple devices—but not many talk about what happens before that chip goes into your MacBook or iPhone.
Apple chips are thin, delicate, and tight-tolerance monsters.
Manual grinding? Sure, it “works” in R&D, but one wrong move and your yield tanks faster than a software bug in iOS 17.
Automatic grinding doesn’t need coffee breaks or intuition.
Pressure, feed rate, and spindle speed—controlled and repeatable.
Your thin Apple chip comes out flat, uniform, and ready for packaging without drama.
At this scale, experience-based grinding is a luxury Apple wouldn’t risk.
Consistency beats craftsmanship, every time.
