In the world of custom manufacturing, “standard” machining is easy. But what happens when you need a part with compound angles, deep undercuts, or intricate organic shapes?
At CNC Rapid, we don’t just machine simple blocks. We provide professional 5-Axis CNC Machining Services for the most demanding industries. Whether it’s a complex aerospace housing or a custom automotive billet part, our advanced equipment and experienced engineers make the difficult look easy.
The Power of 5-Axis Machining
The photo above shows one of our advanced 5-Axis CNC Machines in action. Unlike standard 3-axis machines that require multiple setups (flipping the part manually), our 5-axis technology allows us to machine a part from almost every angle in a single setup.
Why this matters for your project:
- Higher Precision: Fewer setups mean zero cumulative errors. The positional accuracy is maintained throughout the entire process.
- Complex Curves: We can machine smooth, flowing curves and tapered shapes (like the one shown) that are impossible on traditional machines.
- Faster Turnaround: Less handling time means your parts get finished faster.
Tackling Tight Tolerances & Intricate Details
Precision is not just about having good machines; it’s about holding strategy. In the image above, you can see a complex structural component being machined with a rigid fixture setup.
At CNC Rapid, we thrive on Complex Geometry Machining.
- Deep Pockets & Thin Walls: We use high-speed machining strategies to cut deep cavities without causing vibration or wall deformation.
- Multi-Sided Features: Our engineers optimize tool paths to ensure that holes, slots, and features on all sides are perfectly aligned.
From Solid Block to Functional Art
We work primarily with high-grade materials like Aluminum 6061, 7075, and Stainless Steel. The result of our process is not just a functional part, but a piece of industrial art.
Look at the surface finish on our machined parts. Even before polishing or anodizing, our As-Machined Finish is smooth, clean, and free of chatter marks. This reduces the cost and time required for post-processing.
One-Stop Shop: Machining + Finishing
We understand that you don’t want a raw part; you want a finished product. CNC Rapid offers comprehensive surface finishing services to complete your vision.
From the vibrant Red Anodizing on a custom throttle body to the matte Blue Finish on a billet wheel, we manage the entire process. This ensures that the coating thickness is calculated into our machining tolerances, so your parts fit perfectly every time.
