Inspection to your drawing
Dimensional checks and inspection reports for the critical features on your drawing.
3-axis milling
Aria reviews tool access and critical features before choosing the milling setup.
Use the simpler setup where the part allows it
For plates, brackets and pockets with straightforward access, a more complex machine is not automatically the better route. Aria reviews the model and drawing to see which faces can be reached in a fixed setup and where another setup is needed. The aim is to match the machining work to the features on your part.
Our CNC equipment also includes 4-axis and 5-axis options. If the geometry needs a different approach, you can discuss it with the same team rather than selecting a machine category without a part review.
How Aria supports your project
Help choosing a material
Compare materials for the loads, temperature and environment your part will face.
A schedule for your order
Tooling, finishing and inspection included in your delivery schedule.
Test the design before production
Use prototype parts to check fit, function and assembly before the production run.
Applications
When three axes suit the part
Consider three-axis milling for brackets, plates, housings and fixture components whose features can be reached with straightforward tool access. More axes are not automatically necessary: the geometry and setup plan determine the appropriate route.
Design considerations
Design around tool access
Allow for cutter diameter at internal corners and practical tool reach in deep pockets. Identify the datums and critical dimensions so that features spanning different setups can be reviewed together.
Prepare the enquiry
Provide the model, drawing, material grade, quantity and finish. Mark any features requiring a specific tolerance. The CNC milling service page contains the shared machining ranges; the final quotation confirms the route for the part.
