From CAD to Part: The Process

Honyo Prototype’s end-to-end process for 5-axis CNC milling machine services is engineered for precision, efficiency, and transparency, specifically tailored to complex multi-axis machining requirements. This structured workflow ensures technical rigor while minimizing client risk and lead time.
CAD Upload and System Integration
Clients initiate the process by uploading native or neutral format CAD files (STEP, IGES, Parasolid, or native SOLIDWORKS/Creo) through our secure customer portal. Our system automatically validates file integrity, extracts geometric complexity metrics, and identifies critical features requiring 5-axis capability such as undercuts, compound angles, or organic contours. All data is protected under strict NDA protocols with AES-256 encryption during transfer and storage.
AI-Powered Quoting Engine
Uploaded geometry undergoes analysis by our proprietary AI quoting system, which evaluates over 200 technical parameters including:
Material utilization efficiency and scrap rate prediction
Estimated machine runtime based on toolpath complexity and surface finish requirements
Fixture design complexity scoring
Tooling requirements (specialty cutters, custom probes)
Tolerance stack-up analysis for multi-setup parts
The AI generates a preliminary quote within 2 hours, including machine allocation (Makino D200Z or DMG MORI NTX series), material cost breakdown, and critical path timeline. This is not a static output; our quoting engineers review all AI outputs to validate feasibility before client submission.
Engineering-Driven DFM Analysis
All quotes trigger mandatory Design for Manufacturing review by our senior CNC engineering team. This phase focuses on 5-axis specific optimizations:
Collision avoidance verification for rotary axes and complex tooling
Workholding strategy optimization to minimize setups (targeting ≤3 setups for 95% of quoted parts)
Surface finish enhancement through tool orientation analysis
Thin-wall feature stability assessment using FEA simulation
Cost-reduction opportunities via feature consolidation
Clients receive annotated CAD markups with actionable recommendations. Typical DFM cycle time is 24-48 hours with zero obligation to proceed.
Precision Production Execution
Approved jobs enter production on Makino or DMG MORI 5-axis platforms with documented capabilities:
| Parameter | Specification | Verification Method |
|---|---|---|
| Positioning Accuracy | ±0.002mm (ISO 230-2) | Laser interferometer calibration |
| Surface Finish | Ra 0.4µm achievable | Profilometer reports |
| Max Work Envelope | 800 x 800 x 600mm | CMM measurement |
| Material Range | Titanium, Inconel, Tool Steels, Composites | Material certs provided |
Each job undergoes in-process verification:
First article inspection using Zeiss CONTURA CMM with 5-axis scanning capability
On-machine probing for critical feature validation after each setup
Real-time tool wear monitoring via spindle load analysis
Dimensional stability checks per AS9102 standards for aerospace components
Certified Delivery and Documentation
Final delivery includes:
Dimensional inspection report with full FAI data
Material certification and heat treat documentation
Process validation records (machine logs, tooling parameters)
As-machined 3D scan data for form validation (optional)
Standard lead time from CAD approval to delivery is 10-15 business days for complexity class B parts (per Honyo complexity matrix). Expedited options include 72-hour rush processing with priority machine allocation. All shipments include real-time logistics tracking and customs documentation for international clients.
This integrated process reduces traditional prototyping lead times by 35-50% while maintaining AS9100-compliant quality standards, specifically addressing the geometric and tolerance challenges inherent in 5-axis machined components.
