How To Evaluate The True Strength Of a CNC Machining Supplier?

The selection of the CNC machining supplier plays an important role in the success of projects, however, in terms of CNC machining suppliers, they should not solely rely on costs and delivery time. JS Precision always maintains that in developing an assessment framework, there are four important angles, which are also the key basis for CNC machining supplier selection.

Technical Capabilities

  • Does the supplier have five-axis machining facilities and the ability to machine complex curved surfaces?
  • Does the supplier have experience in machining special materials like high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys, and engineering plastics?
  • Does the supplier have expertise in highly advanced technologies in the field of industrial CNC machining, such as CNC milling, turning, and grinding, and can offer Integrated processing services? This is the core point of technical capability evaluation in CNC machining supplier selection.

Quality System Certification

  • Does the supplier have global certifications like ISO 9001:2015 to ensure that the quality process in its production is standardized?
  • Does the supplier have sophisticated testing equipment like coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) and optical measuring devices, in addition to having the entire quality inspection process?

Project Management and Communication Process

  • Is there a project manager in place at the supplier to monitor the progress of projects in real time and attend to customer demands within 24 hours?
  • Are there clear communication channels that enable customers to be supplied with real-time information regarding production and quality?

Technical Support Services

  • Can customers take advantage of a DFM analysis offered by the company, without charge, as part of its services?

Why Is Transparent CNC Machining Quotation The First Step To Project Success?

An open and transparent CNC machining quote is an important aspect of avoiding conflict and managing project costs.

Many customers have found themselves trapped in what they considered a low-cost price—they initially asked a company to do the work and the company quoted them a low price only to bill them numerous fees that add up to way more money in the end. A quality CNC machining quote should include the following details:

Cost Items Detailed Explanation
Material Cost Material Quality, Specification, and Price to be Clearly Stated
Labor Costs Based on difficulty of machining and equipment usage. Also includes detalied labor hours.
Surface Treatment Cost This includes spraying, anodizing, and electroplating operations. The costs are itemized with details of each process.
Packaging and Logistics Costs Use appropriate packaging and logistics channels based on parts characteristics and ensure that packaging and logistics cost estimation is transparent.
Taxes and Fees Ought to clearly state tax rates and fees based on national tax laws.

JS Precision operates on the principle "detailed, transparent, no hidden charges" while quoting. JS Precision gives clients an in-depth quote breakdown, where each cost component is defined. Clients can easily see where every dollar is going, so there are no worries about surprise charges.

Processing Of Complex Structural Components In The Aerospace Industry: a Successful Case Of Ls Manufacturing

Client Challenges

LS Manufacturing, which has long-standing credibility in aerospace parts production, required a high-temperature alloy turbine housing meant for a new-generation aircraft engine.

This project entailed very complex custom CNC parts with features such as thin-walled parts, a tolerance of ±0.008mm, and extremely high surface finish requirements. The project met the ISO 2768 Precision Class (f) requirements, an ISO standard recognized worldwide, hence considered a very high difficulty project in the industrial CNC machining.

LS Manufacturing hunted around for CNC machining suppliers, but many were unable to meet technical specifications because they lack the required machining capacity. This resulted in protracted times and market pressure.

JS Precision Solution

As soon as JS Precision received the order, we set up a project team.

  • In the first case, we carried out an analysis of part drawings and DFM optimization in order to enhance manufacturability for the thin-walled section.
  • Later on, a high-rigidity five-axis gantry machining center with high precision and customized fixtures were chosen to handle the issue caused by deformation during thin-walled parts processing.
  • During this period, simultaneously, we optimized cutting parameters, introduced high-speed cutting tools and cooling systems to improve machining efficiency and surface quality of machining high-temperature alloys.
  • Real-time data monitoring technology was employed in the machining process to monitor the process status in real time by adjusting parameters in case of anomalies.

Results & Value

Through their hard work, JS Precision was able to accomplish the task of making a high temperature alloy turbine housing that met design specifications. The delivery time was cut down by 40% compared to what LS Manufacturing had initially expected.

On the other hand, the rate of part qualification reached 100%, which gave a major fillip in the success of the entire project of LS Manufacturing. LS Manufacturing realized the capabilities of JS Precision in technology, therefore, a lasting strategic partnership was formed.

If you also have the need to machine the parts that fall under the category of “complex,” in the areas of aviation and healthcare, you can share the problems of your project with JS Precision. We can offer you solutions from our technical experts to make your project a success.

How Can Precision CNC Machining Help You Control Costs And Increase ROI?

Precision CNC machining can help businesses control costs and improve return on investment (ROI) through multiple channels. In the industrial CNC machining scenario, this advantage is particularly prominent, as it can achieve cost reduction on a large scale through process optimization.

To begin with, while designing part materials, JS Precision engineers suggest the most economical materials depending on part operational environment and performance specifications. For example, for non-critical structural parts, we suggest the use of ordinary steel instead of alloy steel, thus reducing material cost by 20-30% without impairing performance.

Second, process optimization can minimize machining procedures and maximize manufacturing efficiency. For example, based on five-axis machining technology, multi-angle machining in one clamping can reduce clamping times and elevate machining efficiency by 50%.

Moreover, we also offer free DFM analysis for our customers to optimize designs, eliminate unnecessary machining operations, and minimize manufacturing costs.

Data illustrates the impact customers have experienced, averaging a reduction in total cost of ownership by 18-25% and an improvement in ROI by over 30% by implementing our process improvement and cost control techniques.

What Key Factors Are Most Easily Overlooked When Customizing CNC Parts?

While custom CNC parts, some of the customers' notable concerns include the accuracy of the parts and the required delivery time, but they don't pay heed to some key aspects, which also play an important part in the quality and longevity of the parts, especially when customized by precision CNC machining.

Material batch stability:

Suppliers may use different material sets. This causes disparity in part performance. JS Precision is very particular about material origin. We use material sets supplied by prominent brands, ensuring consistency in material performance across orders by ensuring that all orders of similar material parameters involve the use of the same material batch.

Deformation Control after Heat Treatment:

Heat treatment is a processing that plays a significant role in enhancing the performance characteristics of components. However, improper implementation can cause deformation to components.

We have rich experience in this field and, according to the composition and structure of components, control deformation during and after heat treatment to within an acceptable range.

Cleanliness standards:

The industries related to the aerospace and medical sectors have very strict standards regarding the cleanliness of the parts. JS Precision has an expert cleaning workshop where it uses ultrasonic cleaning to remove any oil and impurities from the surfaces of the parts.

Parts Traceability:

When there are quality concerns regarding parts, there should be traceability to the process in which parts are manufactured. We have implemented an end-to-end traceability process for parts from purchases to inspection to achieve traceability for all parts.

JS Precision maintains strict vigil over every detail in the production process, closely regulating such easily overlooked details in order to supply customers with high-quality, highly reliable custom CNC parts. This is, of course, another key benefit we have honed over the years in the industry of industrial CNC machining services.
