From CAD to Part: The Process

Honyo Prototype Industrial CNC Milling Process Overview

Honyo Prototype executes industrial CNC milling projects through a rigorously defined workflow designed for precision, efficiency, and client transparency. This process ensures manufacturability while minimizing lead time and cost overruns. Below is a technical breakdown of each phase:

Upload CAD
Clients initiate the process by uploading native CAD files (STEP, IGES, or Parasolid formats preferred) via our secure customer portal. Our system validates geometric integrity, checks for non-manufacturable features (e.g., undercuts without draft), and confirms unit consistency (metric/imperial). File corruption or unsupported formats trigger immediate automated alerts, preventing downstream delays. All data undergoes AES-256 encryption, with version control maintained for audit compliance.

AI-Powered Quoting Engine
Upon CAD validation, our proprietary AI engine analyzes part geometry, material specifications, tolerances, and surface finish requirements. The system cross-references 12+ million historical production datasets to generate a preliminary quote within 2 business hours. Key factors include:
Machine time estimation based on toolpath complexity and material removal rates
Raw material waste optimization via nesting algorithms
Secondary operation costing (e.g., deburring, anodizing)
Real-time material availability checks against our ISO 9001-certified inventory
The quote includes a risk assessment score highlighting potential cost drivers (e.g., tolerances tighter than ±0.025mm). Clients may adjust parameters and re-quote iteratively.

Engineering-Driven DFM Analysis
After quote acceptance, Honyo’s certified manufacturing engineers conduct a formal Design for Manufacturability review. This phase is collaborative and iterative:
Geometric feasibility assessment using Mastercam Simulator to detect collisions, chatter risks, or inaccessible features
Tolerance stack-up validation against ASME Y14.5 standards
Material suitability analysis (e.g., recommending 7075-T6 over 6061 for high-stress aerospace components)
Cost-reduction suggestions (e.g., modifying fillet radii to reduce tool changes)
A formal DFM report is issued within 48 hours, with mandatory client sign-off before production. Over 83% of projects see at least one actionable DFM recommendation that reduces cost by 15–30%.

Precision Production Execution
Approved designs move to our climate-controlled machining floor equipped with Haas VF-4SS and DMG MORI 5-axis mills. Production adheres to:
Real-time SPC monitoring of critical dimensions via Renishaw probes
Tool wear compensation using Zoller presetter data
In-process CMM checks at 50% and 90% completion milestones
All operations follow documented work instructions referencing ISO 2768-mK for general tolerances. For high-mix/low-volume industrial jobs, we deploy flexible manufacturing cells with automated pallet changers to maintain ≤72-hour turnaround for standard components.

Certified Delivery & Traceability
Final parts undergo 100% dimensional verification against the original CAD model using Hexagon GLOBAL S-1515 CMMs. Delivery includes:
Full FAI documentation (AS9102 compliant for aerospace)
Material certs (MTRs) and process validation records
Digital twin comparison report showing deviation heatmaps
Climate-controlled shipping with IoT-enabled tracking (temperature/humidity monitoring)
Standard lead time is 5–10 business days from DFM sign-off, with expedited options for critical-path components. All deliverables include a unique QR code linking to the complete production audit trail.

Typical Industrial Tolerances Achievable
| Feature Type | Standard Tolerance | Tight Tolerance Option |
|——————–|——————-|————————|
| Linear Dimensions | ±0.05 mm | ±0.0125 mm |
| Hole Position | ±0.075 mm | ±0.025 mm |
| Surface Finish | 3.2 μm Ra | 0.8 μm Ra |
| Flatness | 0.1 mm | 0.025 mm |

This closed-loop process ensures Honyo delivers industrial-grade CNC milled components with 99.2% first-pass yield rate, backed by our on-time delivery guarantee. Clients retain full visibility via our production dashboard, which provides live machining status and quality metrics.
