5 Axis Aerospace Machining

1. Linkage on several axes and form processing without blind spots

The 5-axis machining centre lets the X, Y, and Z axes move in a straight line and connect with two rotating axes, A, B, or C. It can keep working on complex surfaces, slopes, uneven holes, spiral grooves, and other hard structures. It is especially good for free-form surfaces and uneven parts in aerospace.

2. One clamp, many-sided moulding

A single clamping may be used to machine many components at once, which dramatically improves the coaxiality, parallelism, and assembly precision of the parts. This cuts down on clamping mistakes and the need for human intervention, and it also makes the product more consistent and the machining process more efficient.

3. Very high accuracy and quality of the surface

The device can control things with an accuracy of ± 0.005 mm, thanks to its micrometer-level control, tool path optimisation, and intelligent compensation system. At the same time, the surface that was worked on is very smooth, which is what aviation-grade parts need.

Adaptation of high-strength materials

Support the processing of aviation-grade aluminium alloys like 6061, 7050, and 7075; titanium alloys like Ti6Al4V; nickel-based alloys; magnesium alloys; engineering plastics; composite materials like CFRP/GFRP; and more. Make sure that the design is strong but not too heavy.

Production that works well

The 5-axis linkage machining technique cuts down on the number of steps and the total machining time by a lot. This makes it perfect for the aerospace industry's two main needs: quick delivery times and huge volumes of high-precision parts.

Combining automation with smart manufacturing

The machining centre can do things like automatic tool change (ATC), automatic workpiece detection, and tool life monitoring. It can also work with MES and ERP systems to manage production without people.

Quality control that is quite strict

Each part of an aeroplane goes through several tests, including CMM inspection, laser scanning, hardness testing, and metallographic analysis. It also gets full testing reports and material certification that meet aviation quality system standards like AS9100 and ISO9001.

A lot of aircraft companies use our 5-axis machining services for these important parts:

Instructions for processing different types of parts

Turbine blade with a smooth surface, made of a high-temperature alloy, and very high precision needs

Machining of engine case with large size, complicated shapes, and several facets

High-strength, lightweight constructions with strict accuracy standards make up the structural reinforcement components of an aircraft.

Because the satellite antenna bracket is not symmetrical, it needs very high spatial positioning accuracy.

Guarantee of the strength and fatigue performance of landing gear connectors when they are under a lot of stress

Aluminium alloy high-strength shell for drone flight control bracket, perfectly fits with electronic components

Multi-functional apertures for aviation instrument panels, high surface requirements, and components that look good

We have several high-performance 5-axis machining centres (such DMG MORI, HAAS, Mazak, etc.) that can do the following specialised services:

3D modelling and DFM study of how easy it is to make

Process incoming materials based on design needs, drawings, or samples.

Support sampling of single pieces, small-scale trial production, and large-scale manufacturing

Post-processing for precision machining includes things like heat treatment, anodising, electroplating, laser marking, ultrasonic cleaning, and more.

Management of full process traceability and assistance for quality documents

We can handle diverse parts of projects, from the first steps of verifying and sampling aeronautical designs to official production support, so we can satisfy the needs of all our customers.

Q1: What small batch of customized orders can be accepted?

A: Okay. We support a minimum order of 1 piece, which is particularly suitable for aviation research and development units, startups, and small experimental projects for sampling and structural verification.

Q2: I only have part drawings, can I process without processing files?

A: Absolutely possible. We can generate process paths and perform CAM programming based on 2D drawings or 3D models (such as STEP, IGES, Parasolid, etc.).

Q3: What types of materials can be processed?

A: Support various aviation grade aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, nickel based alloys, stainless steel, engineering plastics, carbon fiber composite materials, etc.

Q4: How much machining accuracy can be achieved?

A: The standard can be controlled within ± 0.01mm, and high-precision parts can reach ± 0.005mm. It also supports polishing treatment with surface roughness Ra0.4~0.8 μ m.

Q5: How long is the usual delivery time?

A: The regular sampling cycle is 510 working days, and the delivery time for bulk orders can be completed within 1530 working days depending on complexity and process requirements. Urgent orders can be negotiated for expedited services.

Q6: Is there quality certification?

A: Yes, it is. We are ISO9001 certified and can provide part testing and material traceability reports that comply with AS9100 standards.
