Frequently asked questions
What Tolerance Does XC Machining Hold for Industrial Automation Components?
Standard: ±0.005 mm on 5-axis CNC machined aluminum and steel robot arm links, actuator bodies, and servo motor mounts. Bore diameter tolerance: H7 fit (±0.010–0.018 mm depending on bore size) for bearing and bushing presses. Surface roughness: Ra 0.8 μm standard on machined surfaces; Ra 0.4 μm on sealing and sliding faces; Ra 0.2 μm achievable on precision linear guide surfaces via CNC grinding.
What Materials Does XC Machining Use for Robot and Automation Parts?
XC Machining automation materials: aluminum 7075-T6 (503 MPa, lightweight robot arms), aluminum 6061-T6 (310 MPa, motor mounts and manifolds), stainless steel 316L (485 MPa, washdown-resistant actuators), steel 4340 (1,470 MPa heat-treated, ball screws and high-load structural), PEEK (100 MPa, 250°C, chemical-resistant gripper inserts), POM Acetal (low-friction sliding wear parts, μ 0.1–0.3), and PA66-GF30 (180 MPa, injection molded manifold bodies).
Can XC Machining Produce Custom Gripper Jaws and End-Effector Parts?
Yes. XC Machining machines custom gripper jaws, finger inserts, and end-effector frames from PEEK, POM, aluminum 6061-T6, and stainless steel 316L. Minimum order: 1 piece. Lead time: 3–7 business days for CNC machined gripper components; 2–4 business days for PA12 SLS 3D printed prototype gripper fingers. STEP file input required. DFM review returned within 12 hours identifying material, tolerance, and finger geometry optimizations.
What Is the Lead Time for Automation CNC Parts from XC Machining?
Lead time: 3–7 business days for standard automation parts (aluminum 6061 or 7075, 3-axis or 5-axis CNC, simple to moderate complexity). 7–12 business days for complex multi-feature robot arm links in aluminum 7075 or stainless steel 316L (5-axis, tight tolerance, CMM inspection). 2–4 business days for PA12 SLS 3D printed prototype gripper and bracket parts. DFM review and quote within 12 hours of STEP file upload.
Does XC Machining Provide Batch Inspection Reports for Automation Production Parts?
Yes. XC Machining provides: first article inspection (FAI) with full CMM dimensional report before production begins; in-process SPC monitoring at defined intervals during the production run; outgoing dimensional inspection report per batch; and Certificate of Conformance (CoC) with every shipment. Material certificates (mill cert for metals, datasheet for PEEK and POM) are filed per batch and provided on request.
