Sandblasting / Bead Blasting

Abrasive blasting creates uniform matte surface texture. Removes tool marks and surface imperfections. Options include glass bead, aluminum oxide, and walnut shell media. Achieves Ra 1.6μm - 3.2μm.

Electroplating (Chrome/Nickel/Zinc)

Metallic coating for enhanced appearance and corrosion resistance. Chrome plating for decorative finish, nickel for wear resistance, zinc for corrosion protection. Thickness: 5-25 microns.

Powder Coating

FAQ

1. What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for CNC machining?
Our CNC machining MOQ is just 1 piece. Whether you need a single prototype or 100,000 production parts, we provide the same attention to quality and precision. Low MOQ allows you to validate designs risk-free before committing to larger production volumes.
2. What is the typical lead time for CNC machined parts?
Standard lead time: 7-15 business days for production parts. Rapid prototyping: as fast as 3-5 business days for simple parts. Complex 5-axis parts: 10-20 business days. Lead time depends on part complexity, quantity, and surface finishing requirements. We provide confirmed delivery dates with every quote.
3. What tolerance can you achieve with CNC machining?
Our standard tolerance is ±0.025mm. For precision machining, we consistently achieve ±0.01mm. Geometric tolerances (flatness, parallelism, concentricity) can be held to 0.01mm. For the tightest requirements, we use in-process probing and post-machining CMM verification to ensure every critical dimension meets specification.
4. What materials can you machine?
We machine a wide range of materials: Aluminum alloys (6061, 7075, 2024, 5052), Stainless steel (303, 304, 316, 316L, 17-4 PH), Titanium (Grade 2, Grade 5), Brass and Copper alloys, Engineering plastics (POM, Nylon, PEEK, PTFE, Polycarbonate, ABS), Tool steel (D2, A2, S7), and Inconel/Hastelloy superalloys. Material certificates are provided with every order.
5. Do you provide free DFM (Design for Manufacturing) analysis?
Yes, we provide free DFM analysis within 24 hours of receiving your CAD files. Our engineers review your design for machinability, including tool access, thin walls, deep pockets, undercuts, tight tolerances, and cost optimization opportunities. This proactive review reduces revisions, lowers costs, and accelerates time to market.
6. What CAD file formats do you accept?
We accept: STEP (.stp/.step), IGES (.igs), STL, DXF, DWG, Parasolid (.x_t), SolidWorks (.sldprt), Inventor (.ipt), and PDF drawings. For CNC machining, STEP files are recommended for best accuracy. We also accept 2D drawings with dimensions if 3D models are unavailable.
7. What surface finishes are available for CNC machined parts?
We offer: Anodizing (Type II/III, multiple colors), Sandblasting/Bead blasting, Electroplating (chrome, nickel, zinc), Powder coating, Brushed finish, Polishing (mirror/satin), Passivation (stainless steel), Black oxide, Painting, Laser engraving, and Electropolishing. Most finishes are performed in-house or through certified finishing partners.
8. Can you machine parts from drawings or samples without 3D models?
Yes. If you only have 2D drawings (PDF, DXF, DWG) or physical samples, we can work from those. For samples, we offer reverse engineering services to create accurate 3D models. There may be a small fee for reverse engineering, which is credited toward your production order.
9. How is pricing calculated for CNC machined parts?
CNC part price = Material cost + Machine time (setup + machining) + Surface finishing + Quality inspection. Factors affecting price: part complexity, material type, tolerance requirements, quantity, and surface finish. We provide detailed quotations within 24 hours. Higher quantities significantly reduce per-piece cost due to setup amortization.
10. Do you provide international shipping?
Yes, we ship worldwide via DHL, FedEx, UPS, and ocean freight. Small orders typically ship by air express (3-7 days). Bulk orders ship by sea (3-5 weeks to US/Europe). All shipments include packing list, Certificate of Origin, and commercial invoice. Export packaging follows international standards with anti-rust protection.
11. How do you ensure consistent quality across production runs?
We implement rigorous quality control: SPC monitoring for critical dimensions, regular tool wear inspection, first article approval before mass production, and in-process sampling at defined intervals. Our CMM inspection verifies key dimensions with 0.001mm resolution. Statistical data is shared with clients upon request. We maintain full traceability from raw material to finished parts.
12. Can you handle both prototyping and production volumes?
Absolutely. We specialize in bridging the gap between prototype and production. Prototype phase: rapid turnaround, flexible quantities (1-100 pieces), design optimization feedback. Production phase: dedicated tooling and fixturing, process validation, consistent quality at scale. Many clients start with prototypes and seamlessly transition to production with us.
13. What is the difference between 3-axis and 5-axis CNC machining?
3-axis machining: tool moves in X, Y, Z linear axes. Suitable for flat features, pockets, holes, and simple 3D contours. Most cost-effective for standard geometries. 5-axis machining: tool moves in X, Y, Z plus two rotary axes, allowing machining from any angle in a single setup. Essential for complex geometries, undercuts, compound angles, impellers, and medical implants. Reduces setups, improves accuracy, and shortens lead time for complex parts.
14. Do you sign NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement)?
Yes, we sign NDA before reviewing your design files. Your CAD files, product specifications, and business information are treated as confidential. We have served clients in defense, aerospace, medical, and consumer electronics sectors where IP protection is critical. NDA signing is our standard practice, not an exception.
15. Can you provide assembly services for machined components?
Yes, we offer light assembly services including press-fitting, fastener installation, bearing insertion, sub-assembly, and packaging. This one-stop service reduces your supply chain complexity and ensures dimensional compatibility between mating parts. Assembly instructions and quality checks are performed per your specifications.
16. What common machining challenges should I be aware of?
Our DFM review addresses these issues before production: Thin walls → Risk of vibration and deflection. FHY solution: Maintain minimum 0.5mm wall thickness for metals. Deep pockets → Tool deflection and poor surface finish. FHY solution: Limit depth-to-diameter ratio below 4:1. Sharp internal corners → Tool radius limitation. FHY solution: Design fillets matching tool radius. Tight tolerances on non-critical features → Unnecessary cost. FHY solution: Apply GD&T only where needed. Burrs on edges → Secondary deburring required. FHY solution: Specify edge break in drawing. Warpage in thin plates → Residual stress release. FHY solution: Stress-relief annealing before final machining.
