High-Precision CNC for Prototypes & Production Runs
Bring ideas to life fast—then scale without rewriting the playbook. Our CNC machining services pair tight-tolerance manufacturing with responsive DFM feedback, so your first article and your 5,000th part both fit, finish, and function as designed.
How the Workflow Fits Your Timeline
- DFM & quotable model: we review geometry, tolerances, threads, and finishes for risk/cost.
- CAM & fixturing: optimized toolpaths + rigid workholding for stable surface finish.
- Cut & verify: in-process checks on criticals; adjustments captured in the job record.
- Finish & pack: anodize, bead-blast, passivate, or paint; parts protected for transit.
Where CNC Wins
- Complex geometry: pockets, contours, and tight positional callouts—no molds required.
- Repeatability: SPC on key dims keeps assemblies snapping together run after run.
- Material breadth: metals and engineering plastics in one shop for faster iterations.
- Speed to market: prototype this week, pilot next—using the same validated setup.
Material Quick Picks
- Aluminum 6061/7075: balance of strength, weight, and clean machining; great for enclosures & brackets.
- Stainless 304/316: corrosion-resistant components for medical, food, and marine use.
- Carbon steel 1018/1045: robust shafts and fixtures; carburize or nitride as needed.
- Brass/Copper: tight-tolerance electrical parts with excellent machinability.
- POM (Delrin) / PEEK: dimensionally stable plastics for low-mass, wear-resistant parts.
Design notes that save time & cost: add internal fillets (tool radius + clearance), avoid deep narrow pockets, standardize thread families, and keep wall thickness consistent where possible.
Mini Case Study — Camera Gimbal Bracket
- Challenge: stiff, lightweight bracket with cosmetic A-surface; 200→2,000 units/month.
- Actions: swapped to 7075-T6, added ribbing, moved tapping in-cycle; bead-blast + clear anodize.
- Outcome: -11% cycle time, +18% stiffness (FEA vs baseline), consistent satin finish across batches.
Inspection & Documentation
- FAI/PPAP on request with certs for material and finish.
- Metrology: CMM, height gauges, thread gauges; gauge R&R available for fixtures.
- Traceability: lot-level tracking from raw stock to final pack.
Frequently Asked Questions
What tolerances can you hold?
We target tight, production-sensible tolerances and flag any features that may require grinding, honing, or redesign for stability.
How fast can I get prototypes?
Lead time depends on material and finish. We prioritize manufacturable models and stock alloys to accelerate builds.
Which finishes are available?
Anodize (Type II/III), passivation, plating, bead-blast, media tumble, painting, laser marking—specified per drawing.
