Batch Production

Opt for our CNC machining for your high-volume production requirements and benefit from ISO 9001 quality control. Our production procedure encompasses three rigorous inspections: first-article verification, random process checks, and comprehensive post-production inspections. With our state-of-the-art equipment and adept team, we optimise production to reduce costs and guarantee prompt delivery. With over a decade of experience, we're your reliable partner for CNC machining.

The process

Design

Before turning begins, the desired part needs to be designed using CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software. The design will determine the shape, dimensions, and features of the final product.

Programming

After the design phase, the CAD file is converted into a CNC program using CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) software. This software translates the design into a series of commands that the CNC machine can understand

Setup

Material Selection: The desired material (e.g., steel, aluminum, plastic) is selected and loaded onto the machine. Tool Selection and Placement: Depending on the design's requirements, various cutting tools are selected and placed in the tool turret. These can include drills, boring tools, and various types of cutting tools. Machine Parameters: Machine parameters such as spindle speed, feed rate, and cutting depth are set, either manually or as dictated by the CNC program.

Inspection

After the turning process, the part is inspected for accuracy using measuring tools or machines to ensure it matches the design specifications.

Quality control

Parts undergo a quality control process to ensure they meet the required standards of ISO 90001.
