Why Aerospace Engineers Choose CNC Works AI

5-axis CNC machining complex aerospace geometry

Complex Geometry, Single Setup

Your airframe components often feature deep cavities, undercuts, and contoured surfaces that demand multi-axis capability. Our 5-axis simultaneous machining centers reduce setup operations by 70%, eliminating stack-up tolerances and delivering consistent accuracy from prototype to production.

Whether you need asymmetric mounting brackets or aerodynamic wing skins, we machine complex geometries in a single fixturing—saving you time and reducing the risk of human error.

Frequently Asked Questions

CNC Works AI is AS9100D certified for aerospace quality management and ISO 9001:2015 certified for general quality management. Our special processes—including heat treatment, welding, and non-destructive testing—are NADCAP-accredited. We provide full material certifications, First Article Inspection (FAI) reports, CMM dimensional data, and complete traceability documentation with every shipment. Request our certification package.

Yes. We specialize in difficult-to-machine aerospace alloys including Ti-6Al-4V titanium, Inconel 718, Waspaloy, and A-286. Our 5-axis centers with through-spindle coolant and ceramic tooling handle these materials at optimal speeds. Post-machining heat treatment and cryogenic stabilization ensure your critical dimensions remain stable through every process step. Discuss your material requirements.

Our standard aerospace tolerance is ±0.005mm (±0.0002"). For precision-critical applications such as H7 holes and bearing journals, we achieve ±0.001mm (±0.00004")—equivalent to 4 microns. On thin-ribbed AL2024 brackets, we maintain parallelism and perpendicularity tolerances ≤0.02 mm using contoured fixtures and balanced double-side roughing strategies. Every part is inspected on CMM before shipment.

According to our CNC machining knowledge base, post-treatment deformation is addressed through aging heat treatment and cryogenic stabilization to release internal stresses before surface treatment. We apply a uniform 0.5 mm finishing allowance during roughing, then perform final compensation machining after hard anodizing to ensure flatness, parallelism, and critical dimensions remain within tolerance.

Every aerospace shipment includes material certifications with heat numbers, First Article Inspection (FAI) reports per AS9102, CMM dimensional inspection data, process certifications, and a Certificate of Conformance (CoC). RoHS/REACH compliance certificates and special process certifications (NADCAP) are provided as required by your program. Full traceability documentation tracks material origin through every manufacturing step.

Standard aerospace prototypes ship in 7–15 days with full material certs and dimensional reports. Rush service is available in 7–15 days for urgent validation projects. Production volumes of 1,000+ units typically deliver within 2–4 weeks depending on complexity and certification requirements. We maintain raw material stock for common aerospace alloys—including 7075, 2024, and Ti-6Al-4V—to reduce lead times. Get a lead time estimate.

Yes. Our facility is equipped for everything from single-piece prototypes to high-volume production runs of 100,000+ units.
