All processes are supported by advanced CAM programming (Mastercam, Siemens NX), real-time tool wear compensation, and first-article inspection reports (FAIR) with full GD&T verification. Material certifications and lot traceability are available upon request.


From CAD to Part: The Process

Honyo Prototype’s Beyond Precise Fabrication process integrates advanced digital engineering with precision manufacturing to eliminate traditional prototyping bottlenecks. This closed-loop system ensures dimensional accuracy to ±5μm while optimizing cost and lead time through predictive analytics. Below is the technical workflow:

CAD Upload
Clients submit native or neutral CAD formats (STEP, IGES, Parasolid) via our secure portal. Our system performs automated geometry validation, detecting invalid edges, non-manifold bodies, or unit inconsistencies. Unlike standard platforms, we immediately run a preliminary tolerance stack analysis against ISO 2768-mK standards, flagging potential GD&T conflicts before quoting.

AI-Powered Quoting Engine
Our proprietary AI engine processes the validated CAD using a 12-dimensional parameter matrix including material anisotropy coefficients, thermal distortion modeling, and machine-specific capability databases. The quote delivers not only cost and lead time (typically within 72 hours) but also:
Predictive risk scoring for critical features
Material substitution recommendations based on thermal/mechanical requirements
Minimum achievable surface finish (Ra) per feature geometry
Real-time capacity allocation across our CNC milling, 5-axis turning, and metal AM cells

Intelligent DFM Integration
This phase transcends conventional Design for Manufacturability checks through closed-loop simulation. The system correlates the CAD model with our production knowledge graph containing 1.2 million historical build records. Key outputs include:

Parameter Standard Check Honyo’s Beyond Precise Enhancement
Wall Thickness Minimum thickness rule Dynamic buckling analysis under cutting forces
Hole Depth Aspect ratio limit Chip evacuation simulation with coolant flow vectors
Surface Finish Basic Ra target Vibration-induced chatter prediction using FEA
Tolerance Stack Statistical summation Monte Carlo variation modeling incorporating tool wear curves

The DFM report provides actionable geometry modifications with quantified impact: e.g., “Increasing fillet radius from R0.5 to R0.8 reduces stress concentration by 37% and eliminates need for post-process polishing.” Client engineering teams collaborate via our cloud platform to approve revisions with version-controlled traceability.

Precision Production Execution
Manufacturing leverages our metrology-integrated workflow:
CNC operations use on-machine probing for in-process GD&T verification, with real-time toolpath adjustments compensating for thermal drift
All critical dimensions undergo CMM validation against the original CAD using ISO 10360-8 compliant equipment
Statistical Process Control (SPC) monitors tool wear via acoustic emission sensors, triggering automatic tool offset corrections before tolerances drift beyond 70% of spec
Material certificates and full inspection reports are blockchain-verified for audit trails

Certified Delivery
Shipments include a Digital Twin Certificate containing:
Full FAI report with deviation heatmaps against nominal CAD
Process capability indices (Cp/Cpk) for critical features
Metrology data in ASAM MDF4 format for client PLM integration
Predictive maintenance insights based on in-process sensor data

This integrated approach reduces first-article rejection rates by 92% compared to industry averages and delivers certified precision components with full process transparency. The system continuously refines its AI models through production feedback, ensuring each iteration achieves measurable improvements in predictability and accuracy.
