CNC Aerospace Parts

Thin-Wall Deformation

Our specialized thin-wall machining strategy and custom fixture design eliminate deformation in lightweight aerospace structures, ensuring dimensional stability even for 0.5mm wall thickness parts.

Titanium Heat Buildup

We use high-pressure coolant system and optimized cutting parameters to control heat during titanium machining, preventing material hardening and tool wear, ensuring surface integrity.

Complex 5-Axis Contours

Our 5-axis CNC machines and advanced toolpath optimization enable precise machining of complex aerospace contours, eliminating multiple setups and ensuring perfect geometric accuracy.

Tight Positional Tolerance

We achieve consistent positional tolerance control down to ±0.005mm for critical aerospace features, supported by our CMM inspection and in-process monitoring system.

Material Traceability

We maintain full material traceability for all aerospace projects, keeping complete records of material certifications, heat numbers, and processing documentation for full compliance.

Batch Consistency

Our standardized process control and repeatable machining setup ensure perfect batch-to-batch consistency, meeting your strict quality requirements for mass production runs.

Surface Integrity

We control machining parameters to ensure optimal surface integrity, avoiding residual stress and micro-cracks that could compromise the fatigue life of critical flight components.

Documentation Demands

We provide complete inspection documentation including FAI reports, CMM reports, material certificates, and process records to meet aerospace industry compliance requirements.

Thin Wall Machining Strategy

Lightweighting is critical for aerospace components, but thin-wall parts are prone to deformation and vibration during machining. Our specialized strategy addresses this challenge perfectly.

We use rigid custom fixtures to support thin features, optimized step-by-step cutting to reduce cutting force, and in-process monitoring to ensure dimensional stability. This allows us to machine wall thickness as thin as 0.5mm without deformation, meeting your lightweight design requirements while maintaining structural strength.

Heat Management for Titanium Cutting

Titanium is a notoriously difficult material to machine, due to its low thermal conductivity that causes heat to concentrate at the cutting edge, leading to tool wear and material hardening.

Our solution includes high-pressure coolant system that delivers coolant directly to the cutting zone, specialized coated cutting tools designed for titanium, and optimized cutting parameters with controlled feed and speed. This effectively dissipates heat, prevents work hardening, and ensures excellent surface finish and dimensional accuracy for your titanium aerospace parts.

Toolpath Optimization for 5-Axis Contours

Modern aerospace components often feature complex 3D contours and curved surfaces that cannot be machined with standard 3-axis machines. Our 5-axis machining capability solves this perfectly.

We use advanced CAM software to optimize the toolpath for 5-axis machining, allowing us to machine complex geometries in a single setup. This eliminates the error from multiple setups, reduces lead time, and ensures perfect geometric accuracy for your complex aerospace components, such as turbine blades, impellers, and aircraft structural parts.

Custom Fixture Design for Stability

Complex aerospace geometries often require specialized fixturing to ensure stability during machining, especially for thin-wall parts and large components.

Our engineering team designs and manufactures custom fixtures for each unique project, based on your part geometry and machining requirements. This ensures perfect part holding, eliminates vibration and deformation, and guarantees consistent accuracy across all production runs, even for the most complex aerospace parts.
