CNC/Machining Capabilities
Do you need a reliable supplier of machined plastic and metal components?
We offer a variety of expertly applied finishing options to improve the mechanical and aesthetic properties of your CNC machine component. Whether for rapid prototypes or production parts, we have the right CNC machining options for your metal and plastic part needs.
Tolerances for feature size:
Standard +/-.005
Minimum +/-.002 for metal and +/-.003 for plastic
Tolerances for hole diameter:
Standard +/-.005
Minimum +/-.001 for metal and +/-.002 for plastic
Tolerances for Flatness, Run Out, Cylindricity, Perpendicularity and other Geometry:
Standard+/-.005
Minimum +/-.001 is possible per geometry dependent
We also utilize CNC Machining as a valuable secondary operation for our 3D printed parts that require boring, drilling, face milling or other precision machining for enhancing features.
Surface Materials:
As machined: Tool marks from the CNC machine will be present
Smooth: Parts are machined at a lower feed rate to achieve a smooth finish
Bead blasted: Adds a uniform matte or satin surface finish, removing all tool marks
Anodizing: Increases the thickness of the surface layer to prevent corrosion
Powder coated: Adds a thin layer of polymer paint to improve corrosion resistance
Black oxide: Conversion coating to improve corrosion resistance and minimize light reflection
Electropolishing: Electrochemical process to polish and deburr metal parts
Brushing: Metal is polished with grit to create a unidirectional satin finish
Chrome plating: Mirror like hard finish
Advantages:
- Wide range of materials
- Ability to hold tight tolerances
- Parts machined directly from 3D CAD models
- Standard delivery time of 1-2 weeks based on order
- Shorter lead time (2-5 business days) available per open capacity
