Material-Specific Notes:

Aluminum (6061-T6, 7075-T6): Most widely used due to high strength-to-weight ratio. Machined with carbide tools and high-speed parameters. Requires thermal stability control to maintain tight tolerances.

Steel (4140, 17-4PH): Used for high-strength structural and engine components. Requires rigid setups and lower RPMs. Post-machining stress relief or heat treatment may be needed.

ABS: Common for non-structural prototypes and ducting. Low melting point requires sharp tools, low feed forces, and air cooling to prevent deformation.

Nylon (PA6, PA66): Used in insulating and wear-resistant components. Hygroscopic; parts conditioned pre- and post-machining to ensure dimensional stability.

All aerospace CNC machining operations in China are typically performed in ISO 9001 and AS9100-certified facilities, with full traceability, first-article inspection (FAI), and PPAP documentation available.

From CAD to Part: The Process

Honyo Prototype Aerospace CNC Machining Process Overview
Honyo Prototype delivers precision CNC machining for China aerospace applications through a rigorously controlled workflow integrating advanced technology and aerospace-specific quality protocols. Our end-to-end process ensures compliance with AS9100, NADCAP, and customer-specific standards while optimizing speed and cost efficiency.

Upload CAD
Clients initiate the process by securely uploading native CAD files (STEP, IGES, or native NX/CATIA) via our encrypted client portal. All submissions undergo immediate digital rights management with mandatory NDA enforcement. Our system validates geometric integrity, checks for manufacturing constraints inherent to aerospace alloys (e.g., Ti-6Al-4V, 7075-T7351 aluminum), and flags potential tolerance conflicts against industry standards like ASME Y14.5. File encryption and audit trails meet ITAR and CCAA requirements for sensitive aerospace data.

AI-Powered Quoting Engine
Proprietary AI algorithms analyze the validated CAD model to generate instant, data-driven quotes within 2 business hours. The engine cross-references real-time machine availability, material certification costs (including MMPA and AMS specifications), and historical performance data from 12,000+ aerospace projects. Critical parameters assessed include: geometric complexity, required surface finishes (e.g., 16 Ra for fuel system components), thermal stability requirements, and non-destructive testing needs. Quotes explicitly itemize compliance costs for AS9102 First Article Inspection and material traceability documentation.

Aerospace-Optimized DFM Analysis
Engineers conduct mandatory Design for Manufacturability reviews focused on aerospace failure prevention. This phase addresses:
Thin-wall stability during high-speed machining of structural components
Titanium alloy chip evacuation strategies to prevent recutting and thermal warpage
Weld prep feature accessibility per AWS D17.1 standards
Secondary operation sequencing for complex assemblies (e.g., landing gear brackets)
Clients receive annotated reports with actionable recommendations, including tolerance stack-up simulations using Monte Carlo analysis. All DFM outputs align with EIA-913 and SAE ARP4754A guidelines.

Precision Production Execution
Machining occurs in our AS9100-certified cleanroom facility using 5-axis DMG MORI and Makino centers with sub-micron repeatability. Key production controls include:
Real-time thermal compensation via Renishaw probes during extended titanium runs
In-process CMM verification at critical stages (per AS9100 Clause 8.5.1)
Dedicated material lots with full PMI traceability from mill certs to final part
NDT integration (fluorescent penetrant, X-ray) for safety-critical features
All operators hold NADCAP AC7101 certification, and machine parameters are locked via Smart Manufacturing MES to prevent unauthorized deviations.

Certified Delivery Package
Final delivery includes the machined components with:
Full AS9102-compliant First Article Inspection report
Material traceability documentation from ingot to finished part
Dimensional results with GD&T analysis against original CAD
NDT certification and process validation records
ITAR-compliant shipping with tamper-evident packaging and customs documentation
Parts undergo final cleaning per ASTM F312-21 standards for aerospace fluid systems, with humidity-controlled packaging meeting MIL-PRF-39012 requirements.

This integrated workflow reduces lead times by 35% versus traditional aerospace suppliers while maintaining 99.98% first-pass yield rates across 200+ active aerospace programs. All processes are auditable through our digital thread platform, providing clients real-time visibility from CAD submission to certified delivery.
