Custom CNC Part Manufacturing Brass Parts Milling CNC Machining Parts

CNC machining is presently the prevailing subtractive manufacturing technology, offering a highly

adaptable and sturdy method for crafting tailored metal and plastic components.

Employing CAD models, CNC machines meticulously eliminate material from a solid block using

various cutting tools.

In essence, CNC machining yields components with precise tolerances and remarkable material

characteristics. It is well-suited for individual projects and moderate-volume production

(up to 1,000 parts) owing to its exceptional repeatability.

Nevertheless, it entails more design constraints compared to 3D printing, partially attributable to

the subtractive nature of the technology.

Product Details

Brass is renowned for its exceptional machinability, making it an excellent choice for

CNC machining. Its versatility and desirable properties extend its application across various

industries, including plumbing, electrical, and medical.

Brass offers impressive durability and is favored for its ease of workability.

Its adaptability and simplicity in machining make it a prevalent choice for producing parts

across a wide range of applications.

Brass Finishing and Post-Processing

360 Brass has a shiny yellow finish that varies depending on surface roughness.

It can be hand-polished to increase its sheen, or media blasted for more of a matte texture.

Company Profile

FAQ's

1. Machining Dimensions Overview:

Our CNC machining services cover a range of capabilities, including CNC milling

(3-axis, 3+2-axis, and 5-axis) and turning. For 3/3+2-axis CNC milling, we can machine parts

with dimensions up to 2000 x 1500 x 200 mm (78.7 x 59.0 x 7.8 in.).

The maximum part size for 5-axis milling is 650 x 650 x 300 mm (25.5 x 25.5 x 11.8 in.).

When it comes to CNC turning, we can handle parts with a maximum diameter of 431 mm (17 in.)

and a length of 990 mm (39 in.).

The recommended minimum part dimensions are around 10 x 10 x 10 mm (0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 in.),

with a minimum feature size of 0.5 mm.

Please be aware that our platform has a limitation, and the maximum size for parts is 1000 mm

(39 in.). If your project requires dimensions beyond this limit, kindly reach out to our sales team

for further assistance.

2. Understanding CNC Machining Costs:

The cost of CNC machining is determined by factors such as complexity, quantity, and lead time.

To obtain an accurate cost estimate, we recommend submitting a 3D CAD model.

This allows us to provide an interactive quote and offer design for manufacturability (DFM) feedback.

Notably, our use of proprietary software and automated fixturing processes eliminates upfront

non-recurring engineering (NRE) costs.

This approach ensures that even for quantities as low as 1 to 200 parts, CNC machining remains

a cost-effective option. While prices may be comparable to or slightly higher than 3D printing, CNC

machining provides enhanced material properties and surface finishes, making it a valuable choice.

3. Lead Time and Quotation Duration:

The delivery time for parts is determined by their complexity:

Low-complexity parts: 2-3 days
Moderate-complexity parts: 2-5 days
High-complexity parts: 5-15 days

Quoting time varies based on design complexity:

Simple designs: 1 business day or faster
Moderate to complex designs: 3+ business days
