Mechanical Spare Parts Providers
CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing method that automates the removal of material
from raw stock using computer-generated instructions.
Typically, CNC machines fall into two categories: those that keep the raw stock stationary while
the cutting tool rotates and those that rotate the raw stock while moving it against a stationary
tool.
Various adaptations and combinations of these techniques exist to create parts with intricate
features.

Post-processing and surface finishes for CNC machining
CNC-machined parts as they emerge from the machine often exhibit visible tool marks,
a feature that may not align with your specific part requirements.
Fortunately, there exists a multitude of post-processing techniques aimed at enhancing the
surface appearance and elevating attributes such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance,
and chemical resistance.
Methods like anodizing, bead blasting, and powder coating present viable options for refining
the final presentation of your custom parts, allowing you to achieve the desired surface
quality and performance characteristics.

FAQ's
1. Can make design drawings for me?
While we do not offer standalone product design services, we do provide Design for
Manufacturing (DFM) reviews for all approved orders.
This means we collaborate with our clients to optimize their 2D and 3D drawings, enhancing
manufacturability, resolving design issues, and reducing production expenses.
Learn more about preparing your CAD drawings for manufacturing.
2. What type of design files does We accept for quoting?
To ensure accurate and prompt quotations, we exclusively accept 3D CAD files in STL, STEP,
or IGES formats. For 2D drawings with reference dimensions, please provide them in PDF format.
Complete manufacturing information should be included in this technical documentation.
Please note that informal communication via SMS, Skype, email, etc., will not be considered
acceptable for manufacturing purposes.
3. How long does a quotation take?
Typically, we aim to respond to your Request for Quotation (RFQ) within one days after receiving it.
If there is any unexpected delay in providing the quote, we will promptly notify you of the revised
timeline.
4. How do I know my design will be kept confidential?
Rest assured, we are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of your designs.
We are more than willing to sign and uphold any non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement you
require.
Furthermore, our factory strictly enforces a "no photographs" policy for any customer's product
without explicit permission.
Our reputation is built on years of experience, working with countless unique designs, and
safeguarding proprietary information from third-party disclosure. Your design's confidentiality is our
priority.
