CNC Machining Capabilities for Multi-Process Parts

Assess the complete route for your part: milling, turning, Swiss-type machining, wire EDM and specified secondary operations. A Jaquent project owner coordinates the agreed scope; confirm the production relationship, process fit and inspection before ordering.

Equipment and envelope (reference)

AreaReference capability
Multi-axis / 5-axis centersMazak, Brother, Fanuc and equivalent platforms; work envelope up to about 800 × 600 × 500 mm — confirm per part
Swiss / turn-millHigh-rigidity Swiss and chuck turning; Swiss diameters roughly Ø0.5–32 mm; chuck turning up to about Ø250 mm
Wire EDMSodick / Charmilles class machines for conductive / hardened profiles and sharp internals
MetrologyZEISS SPECTRUM CMM, optical comparators, spectrometers; production-floor calipers and micrometers
Tolerance postureWhere no individual or general drawing tolerance applies, ±0.10 mm is a common quotation basis. Selected milling/turning features may be reviewed to ±0.01 mm; designated critical five-axis features to ±0.005 mm where material and geometry allow, confirmed through DFM.
Note

These are reference platforms and ranges, not a machine reservation or a finished-part guarantee. Fixture space, orientation, tool reach, rotary clearance and stock condition affect usable capacity. Verify the production relationship through Jaquent’s manufacturing and trading authorization.

Multi-process delivery flow

Review the full requirement

Identify the current drawing, function, material and condition, quantity, critical features and any open requirements. DFM reviews how the part can be made and checked.

Confirm the route and responsibility

Combine milling, turning, Swiss-type work or wire EDM where needed. Identify any customer-supplied stock or partly machined blank, who performs each stage, the datums transferred between stages and the final acceptance point. Confirm specialist finishing and the sequence for the order.

Scope finishing and assembly

Specify the finish, masking, heat treatment, inserts or hardware, and final acceptance state. Agreed specialist operations are coordinated through the project owner.

Agree checks and repeat-order inputs

Confirm inspection coverage, records and shipment scope. For a repeat batch, reconfirm revision, quantity, material, finish and acceptance requirements before release.

In-process machining evidence

Use the process images as context for cutting, fixtures and access. For a project that spans several operations, identify which features are created or accepted at each stage and how their relationships are preserved.

Review documented examples on the original turning, steel machining and plastic machining pages, with each example’s stated evidence limits. These examples do not establish that every pictured part used five-axis machining.

Quality posture

The controlled drawing and confirmed DFM / order requirements define delivery limits. Apply specified individual and general tolerances to their scope and edition. Where neither applies, ±0.10 mm is a common quotation basis to confirm. Selected milling/turning features may be reviewed to ±0.01 mm; designated critical five-axis features to ±0.005 mm where material and geometry allow. See functional tolerances and GD&T.

At the authorized manufacturing facility, incoming, in-process and pre-shipment checks follow the agreed plan. Confirm named characteristics, every-part or sampled coverage and requested reports in the quotation. Material documentation, a CoC and customer FAI forms serve different purposes and need their scope specified. See inspection scope and required records.

Capabilities FAQ

Can you hold ±0.005 mm on production batches?

Selected critical five-axis and wire EDM features, and selected Swiss-turned linear features, may be reviewed to ±0.005 mm where material and geometry allow. Each request needs drawing and DFM confirmation, with inspection method and coverage agreed for the feature. Confirm the applicable process and named dimensions for the batch before ordering.

Do you support prototype and low-volume?

MOQ starts at one piece. A prototype and later batches can be reviewed through the same inquiry route. Reconfirm drawing revision, quantity, material, finish and inspection for each order.

What is the benefit of DFM before manufacturing?

Design for manufacturability review examines cutting and fixture access, material condition, functional requirements and inspection needs before the route and quotation are agreed. Any change to a controlled drawing needs the drawing owner’s agreement.
