C & R Manufacturing

The base frame shown here was manufactured for a pharmaceutical client, and was used to support equipment. Machining began with a 20.38 pound raw blank of T6 aluminum and finished at 3.3 lbs. Utilizing our 5-axis Hurco VMX 30 U vertical mill we were able to cut the machining down to two operations from four and also allow for deburring as part of the machining process. The tolerances for this aluminum base frame are ±0.0005".

This air handler fan shaft is a component of an HVAC ventilation system, and is composed of C1215C1144 cold rolled steel. Machining consisted of rough and finish turning and facing to dimensions of 10.250" (± 0.015") in length, and an outside raw material diameter of 1.000" (+0.000"-0.002"), and met machined tolerances within .0007".

A manufacturer of laser machinery was in need of a precision component for one of their products. Composed of T6 aluminum the part would require precision CNC turning on our LU25 live tool lathe. The live tooling capability allows us to eliminate the milling set up time from the process, saving time and extra part handling, as well as increases efficiency by up to 25%. Measuring 1.500" in length, the component had an outside diameter of 1.650" ± 0.001", an inside diameter of 0.8756", and met tolerances of ± 0.0003". After machining the parts were deburred using our vibratory system, and a black anodizing was applied. We produced 60 of these parts in 12 days and delivered them to the customer in Olathe, Kansas.
