Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Questions

How does Frigate ensure metal parts remain dimensionally stable after repeated sterilization cycles?

Frigate machines components from corrosion-resistant alloys like 316L stainless steel and anodized aluminum under controlled thermal environments. All critical surfaces undergo deburring, passivation, and polishing to avoid stress concentration and microbial retention. These post-processing methods help maintain surface and dimensional integrity after multiple autoclave and chemical disinfection cycles. This ensures long-term fitment and cleanliness in laboratory applications involving strict hygiene protocols. 

What techniques does Frigate use to machine precise micro-scale features in diagnostic assemblies?

Frigate uses high-speed spindles paired with CAM-optimized toolpaths to produce micro features such as ports, threads, and sealing grooves below 0.5 mm. Tool deflection is minimized using balanced chip loads and short overhang tools. Real-time probing and dimensional feedback loops confirm accuracy during machining. This level of precision supports reliable performance in compact diagnostic instruments and sample-handling systems. 

How does Frigate handle traceability and inspection documentation for biotech components?

Frigate links each production batch with unique operator IDs, toolpaths, and machine logs embedded into a traceable digital audit trail. CMM, laser scanners, and interferometers verify all critical features, including sealing profiles and enclosure fits. Output data is formatted to align with ISO 13485 and FDA 21 CFR Part 820 recordkeeping. These systems ensure regulatory readiness and complete part qualification during client audits. 

What surface treatment options does Frigate offer for lab instrument housings and contact parts?

Frigate applies physical vapor deposition (PVD) coatings such as diamond-like carbon (DLC) to reduce sliding wear in joints and enclosures. Anodizing and passivation are used to boost corrosion resistance without altering tight tolerances. Surface roughness is tuned below Ra 0.2 µm for contact-sensitive parts using polishing and vibratory finishing. These treatments improve durability and compatibility in wet lab and cleanroom environments. 

How does Frigate control stress points during CNC machining of thin-walled scientific components?

Frigate programs adaptive toolpaths with controlled feed rates and step-down strategies to minimize tool-induced stress. Edge rounding and precise burr removal prevent notch formation in screw bosses and mounting tabs. In-process metrology confirms wall thickness and curvature, reducing the risk of part distortion during assembly or cleaning. These techniques help ensure structural reliability in precision lab hardware.
