CNC Milled Aluminum 6061 Parts High Precision Complex Design Prototype To Production Cheap Price
This aluminum gimble part was high precision CNC turned and milled, it was one of the assembly components of a camera supporting stand. The original part design was optimized on our advice to cut down the production time and cost. Both working great and looking pretty were required for this part manufacturing, rapid prototypes prior to mass manufacturing were made to test our manufacturing capabilities.
CNC Precision Turning is a common used manufacturing process using a stationary cutting tool to remove unwanted material from a high-speed rotating workpiece. The workpiece is usually held in a chuck and rotating fast while the cutting tool moves along the length of the workpiece to create the desired shapes and features. Here are some key features and advantages of CNC turning:
Tight Tolerance: CNC turning are capable of manufacturing highly precise and accurate parts with tight tolerances, usually within 0.01 mm. This makes CNC turned parts ideal for applications that require high precision and accuracy, such as aerospace, defense, medical devices, automotive, etc.
Good Versatility: CNC turning process works great with a wide range of solid materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. CNC turning can also produce a variety of shapes and features, including cylindrical, conical, and spherical shapes.
Good Automation: CNC turning machines are fully automatic running, which means it can run for extended periods of time without human intervention. This reduces the cost of manual labor and greatly increases production efficiency and productivity.
CNC Precision Milling is a type of conventional manufacturing technology that uses the high-speed rotating cutting tool to precisely remove the unwanted material from a solid workpiece. The cutting tool is usually held in a spindle and moving along multiple axes (3,4,5 axes) to create various structures, shapes and features.
Compared with Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies for Rapid Prototyping & Manufacturing, CNC Machining is a great choice for Rapid Prototypes manufacturing for its real and cheap raw materials, high precision, wide material and surface finishing options, usually economical manufacturing cost, and fast turnaround. Here are part of the benefits of CNC machined prototypes:
Real and Cheap Raw Materials. Compared with Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies using expensive liquid or powdered materials with simulated properties, CNC machining uses the real and cheap solid materials to build the prototypes, so CNC machined prototypes work great for strength, flexibility and durability verification for product development.
High Precision. Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies, such as 3D Printing, provide manufacturing tolerance usually ± 0.1 mm or worse, CNC machining can provide tolerance up to ± 0.001 mm that is much tighter than AM technologies, so CNC machined prototypes provide more reliable and precise feedback on fitting and mechanism test.
Though a variety of Additive Manufacturing techniques are used for Rapid Prototyping, CNC is still the leading Rapid Prototyping process in China for material advantages and cheap labor here. No matter big or small size, simple or complex design, mechanical or appearance verification, CNC is the competitive option.
CNC aluminum parts are widely used in many industries and applications in our daily life for its comprehensive performance and excellent practicability. Benefits of CNC machined aluminum parts:
Versatility: CNC machining works with a wide range of aluminum alloys, including series of 6061, 7075, and 2024, etc. It can also produce different kinds of shapes and features with great dimension stability, from simple holes and small slots to complex contours and large structures.
Precision: Aluminum alloy is a soft and malleable metal material, which makes it easy to be machined with high precision and tight tolerances, usually from ± 0.01 mm to ± 0.1 mm, so CNC machined aluminum parts have high repeatability and consistency, which is important for industries requiring high uniformity.
Surface Finishing: CNC machined aluminum parts have wide surface finishing options, such as anodizing, hard anodizing, painting, powder coating, brushing, laser engraving, electropolishing, etc, which have CNC aluminum parts not only work and also look as intended as possible.
Cost-Effective: Aluminum is a relatively inexpensive material compared to other metals, such as stainless steel, mold steel, special steel, etc. which makes aluminum a cost-effective choice for many applications.
How does HONKIA compare to other suppliers on price?
Compared to other Chinese suppliers, we choose not to compete on price but to offer the high level of quality, rapid response, and professional results. That’s why some customers cooperate with us for many years, compared with the price, they need a reliable partner to avoid serious losses caused by annoying after-sales service or even the trouble of finding no one.
What if I am not completely satisfied with the parts I receive?
HONKIA will free remake or amend the returned parts that you are not completely satisfied, or refund the full arrived payment, though this is rarely happened in the past. Any disputes based on a subjective or unilateral determination shall be discussed and negotiated to reach a reasonable result. Our continuing business relies on earning your confidence in our ability to meet and exceed the reasonable expectations.
