CNC Machining for Aerospace Components

We machine production parts for Aerospace Components customers, from single prototypes through to repeat batches of tens of thousands. Typical work covers ribs and spars, actuator housings and brackets, usually in 7075-T6 or 7050.

What makes Aerospace Components different from general machining is not the geometry — it is the documentation and the failure modes. The parts that come back are the ones where full traceability from melt to finished part was not designed out at the start.

Parts we machine for Aerospace Components

  • Ribs and spars
  • Actuator housings
  • Brackets
  • Bushings
  • Fuel system fittings

Materials we run for Aerospace Components

  • 7075-T6
  • 7050
  • Ti-6Al-4V
  • 17-4 PH
  • Inconel 718

Standards and documentation

  • AS9100, NADCAP for special processes, AS9102 FAIR

Tell us which standard applies and which documents you need with the shipment. Dimensional reports, material certificates, certificates of conformity and first article inspection reports are all available, and it is much cheaper to agree them before the batch runs than to reconstruct them afterwards.

Where Aerospace Components projects usually go wrong

  • Full traceability from melt to finished part
  • First article inspection paperwork can exceed the machining cost

Tolerance and finish we hold

Requirement Typical capability
General tolerance +/-0.005 mm true position typical; NADCAP approval required for heat treat and NDT
Surface finish Ra 0.4 to 3.2 um
Material certification EN 10204 3.1 on request
Inspection Dimensional report, CMM report, FAIR
Packaging VCI and desiccant for steel, individual wrap for cosmetic faces

Frequently asked questions

Do you have experience with Aerospace Components parts?

Yes. Typical parts we run are ribs and spars and actuator housings. We can share the process route and inspection approach for a comparable part before you commit.

Which materials do you recommend for Aerospace Components?

7075-T6, 7050, Ti-6Al-4V, 17-4 PH. The right choice depends on which of corrosion, weight, strength and cost is the binding constraint, and we will say so plainly rather than quoting the most expensive option.

What documentation do you provide?

A dimensional report and a certificate of conformity as standard. Material certificates, CMM reports, FAIR and PPAP submissions are available when your quality system requires them.

What tolerances do you hold for Aerospace Components parts?

+/-0.005 mm true position typical; NADCAP approval required for heat treat and NDT is typical for the industry. Tighter tolerance on individual features is possible and is quoted against the specific feature rather than the whole part.
