What you get with our rapid CNC milling
Lead time: most prototypes finished in 1–3 days; small batches timed according to quantity and complexity.
Accuracy: standard ±0.01 mm; tighter tolerances available on critical features when material and geometry allow.
Machine capability: 3-axis, 4-axis indexed and 5-axis continuous milling for undercuts, compound angles and complex surfaces.
Quantity: from 1-piece prototype to small production runs with no minimum order.
Surface options: as-machined, anodizing (Type II/III), bead blast, polishing, plating, painting.

Design and Engineering Support
Upload STEP, IGES, STL or DWG files. We run a basic DFM check before quoting-looking at tool access, thin walls, deep pockets and tolerance stack-ups. Feedback usually comes with the quote so you can adjust geometry early and avoid extra cost or delay. Toolpath simulation is done on complex parts to catch collisions before metal is cut.

Quality and inspection
Parts are inspected to the drawing. A coordinate measuring machine (CMM) and standard metrology tools are available. First-article reports can be provided on request. Inspection is completed before shipment
FAQ
Q1: How fast is delivery for rapid prototyping CNC milling?
A: Most single prototypes ship in 1–3 working days after we confirm the drawing and material. Batch timing depends on quantity and complexity.
Q2: What accuracy can you hold?
A: Standard ±0.01 mm. Tighter tolerances are possible on critical dimensions when the material and feature size support it.
Q3: Do you support small batch production?
A: Yes. We handle single prototypes and small production runs with no minimum order quantity.
Q4: What surface finishes are available?
A: As-machined, anodizing, bead blast, electroplating, polishing and painting are all available depending on the material.
Q5: How do you ensure quality?
A: CMM and height gauges are used for final inspection. Parts are checked against the drawing before they leave the factory.
