From CAD to Part: The Process
Honyo Prototype Online CNC Machining Quoting and Production Process
Our online CNC machining quotation system integrates advanced automation with expert engineering oversight to deliver rapid, accurate, and manufacturable solutions. The end-to-end workflow is designed for precision, efficiency, and transparency, ensuring client requirements align with production realities from initial upload to final delivery.
CAD File Upload and System Processing
Clients initiate the process by uploading native or neutral format CAD files (STEP, IGES, Parasolid, SolidWorks) directly through our secure web portal. Our system performs immediate geometric complexity analysis, identifying critical features such as tight tolerances, thin walls, deep cavities, and complex geometries. Material selection is prompted based on the client’s specified requirements or industry-standard recommendations if unspecified. This initial upload triggers the automated quotation engine while simultaneously preparing the model for downstream engineering review.
AI-Powered Instant Quotation
Within minutes, our proprietary AI quotation engine generates a preliminary cost estimate. This system leverages a continuously updated database of machine hourly rates, material costs (including real-time commodity index tracking for metals), tooling requirements, and historical production data from over 50,000 completed CNC projects. The AI model factors in geometric complexity metrics, feature density, and setup requirements derived from the CAD analysis. Crucially, this is not a generic estimate; it reflects Honyo’s actual shop floor capabilities across our 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis machining centers. Clients receive a binding price range within 24 hours, significantly faster than industry averages, with clear breakdowns of material, machining time, and finishing costs.
Engineer-Validated DFM Analysis
Every quote undergoes mandatory Design for Manufacturability (DFM) review by our ASME-certified manufacturing engineers before finalization. This phase is where Honyo’s technical expertise differentiates our service. Engineers conduct a thorough analysis focusing on:
Tolerance feasibility against ISO 2768 or client-specified standards
Tool accessibility for internal features and undercuts
Optimal stock size selection to minimize material waste
Fixturing strategy validation for critical datums
Surface finish achievability relative to feature geometry
Identification of unnecessary secondary operations
Clients receive specific, actionable recommendations via our portal—not just a pass/fail report. Examples include suggested tolerance relaxations for non-critical features, chamfer additions to eliminate tool marks, or stock dimension adjustments reducing machining time by 15-30%. This collaborative DFM step prevents costly redesigns during production and ensures the quoted price reflects a truly manufacturable design.
Production Execution with Real-Time Tracking
Upon client approval of both quote and DFM recommendations, orders enter our production control system. Each job receives a unique tracking ID providing clients real-time visibility into:
Raw material certification verification
CNC program validation (including simulated toolpath review)
First-article inspection reports (FAIR) against critical dimensions
In-process quality checkpoints
Final inspection documentation (CMM reports, surface roughness data)
Our facility utilizes IoT-enabled machine monitoring, ensuring adherence to quoted lead times through dynamic scheduling that prioritizes urgent orders without disrupting standard workflows. All critical processes follow ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D protocols, with full traceability from billet to shipment.
Delivery Commitment and Logistics
Honyo guarantees on-time delivery through our tiered lead time structure, validated against historical performance data:
| Order Type | Standard Lead Time | Rush Option Availability | Key Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prototype (1-10 pcs) | 5-7 business days | 72-hour turnaround | DFM approval by 12 PM EST; standard materials |
| Bridge Production (10-50 pcs) | 8-10 business days | 5-day option | Complex DFM may extend rush eligibility |
| Production (>50 pcs) | 12-15 business days | Case-by-case evaluation | Requires material procurement planning |
All shipments include comprehensive documentation: Certificate of Conformance, material test reports, dimensional inspection data, and packing lists. We partner with DHL, FedEx, and regional carriers for global delivery, providing automated shipment notifications and customs clearance support for international clients. Our 98.7% on-time delivery rate (2023 Q1-Q4 data) reflects our commitment to operational excellence beyond the quoting phase. This integrated process ensures clients receive not just a price, but a validated manufacturing solution optimized for cost, quality, and speed.
