Material compatibility is rigorously maintained across all platforms. Aluminum (6061, 7075) and steel (1018, 4140, stainless) are processed with optimized feeds and speeds to maintain dimensional stability and surface integrity. Engineering thermoplastics such as ABS and nylon are machined with specialized tooling and reduced thermal input to prevent deformation. All machines are calibrated for thermal compensation and vibration damping to ensure tight tolerance consistency across production runs.
From CAD to Part: The Process
Honyo Prototype’s CNC machining workflow integrates advanced digital tools with rigorous engineering oversight to ensure precision, speed, and cost efficiency for prototype and low-volume production. Our five-stage process begins with CAD file upload and concludes with certified delivery, systematically de-risking each phase while maintaining tight tolerances and material integrity.
Upon receiving a client’s CAD file (STEP, IGES, or native formats), our proprietary AI quoting engine performs an immediate preliminary analysis of geometric complexity, material selection, and basic manufacturability. This generates a preliminary cost and timeline estimate within 15 minutes. Crucially, this AI output is not a final quote but a foundation for human engineering review. A dedicated Manufacturing Engineer validates the AI assessment, cross-referencing real-time machine availability, tooling constraints, and secondary operation requirements to issue a binding quotation with guaranteed lead times.
The Design for Manufacturability (DFM) phase is where Honyo adds significant value through iterative collaboration. Our engineers conduct a comprehensive tolerance stack-up analysis, identifying potential issues such as thin walls below 0.5mm, undercuts requiring specialized tooling, or surface finish conflicts. Unlike automated DFM checkers, we provide actionable redesign suggestions via secure client portal comments—often resolving 70% of issues before production begins. Critical DFM parameters we validate include:
| Parameter | Standard Capability | Precision Capability | Risk Mitigation Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minimum Feature Size | 0.8mm | 0.3mm (with micro-milling) | Suggest geometry consolidation |
| Positional Tolerance | ±0.05mm | ±0.01mm | Recommend datum alignment strategy |
| Surface Roughness | Ra 3.2μm | Ra 0.8μm | Specify toolpath optimization |
| Max Work Envelope | 1000x600x500mm | 500x400x300mm (high-precision) | Propose part segmentation |
Production leverages our network of 47 HAAS and DMG MORI CNC centers, each equipped with Renishaw probes for in-process verification. Every run begins with first-article inspection against the original CAD model using CMM or optical scanning. We implement dynamic toolpath adjustments based on real-time vibration monitoring to prevent chatter marks on critical surfaces. For multi-axis work, we enforce strict work-holding protocols to eliminate repositioning errors—documented in our internal production logs accessible to clients.
Delivery encompasses more than physical shipment. Each order includes a full quality dossier: CMM inspection reports traceable to NIST standards, material certs with lot numbers, and a final DFM closure report confirming all flagged items were resolved. Parts ship in custom anti-static packaging with environmental monitoring tags for sensitive applications. Our logistics team coordinates customs documentation for global clients, maintaining a 98.7% on-time delivery rate for international shipments. This closed-loop process—where DFM insights feed continuous improvement into quoting algorithms—reduces average CNC prototyping lead time to 72 hours while achieving 99.2% first-pass yield rates across aluminum, steel, and engineering plastics.
