Customer Key Challenges

Delivering machined prototype required tight tolerance control, coordinated process execution, and ensuring fitment accuracy within limited timelines. 

Tolerance Control and Machining Accuracy

Achieving ±0.01mm tolerance in AL6061 machining demanded careful process planning, tooling control, and consistent inspection to meet dimensional requirements. 

Fitment Validation and Timely Delivery

Ensuring successful fitment with final inspection validation while meeting committed delivery timelines was essential for a first-time prototype order. 

1

Requirement Analysis

✔ Defined technical specifications including ±0.01mm tolerance and material selection (AL6061). 

✔ Completed drawing finalization and prepared QAP aligned with prototype requirements. 

2

Design & Engineering

✔ Reviewed part geometry for machinability and optimized process planning. 

✔ Aligned tooling strategy and machining approach to meet tight tolerance requirements. 

 

3

Manufacturing & Quality Assurance

✔ Performed precision machining of AL6061 components maintaining ±0.01mm tolerance. 

✔ Conducted final inspection and fitment checks to validate dimensional accuracy and functionality. 

4

Delivery & Support

✔ Completed packaging and dispatched the prototype within committed timelines. 

✔ Ensured readiness for future production with validated fitment and inspection outcomes. 

Execution Process

We followed a structured execution process to ensure accurate machining, controlled tolerances, and on-time delivery for the prototype component.
