Precision CNC machined rail for a defence client
A precision-machined rail for an application-specific problem brought to us by a defence industrial base client.
What we did
We developed the solution from the client's problem: 3D CAD design, 3D-printed prototypes to prove the angular (MOA) offset, then CNC machining and Type III hard anodizing. The client was involved from idea to delivery, giving live feedback as the prototypes and design changed.
Materials and processes
3D CAD mechanical design, 3D printing for prototyping, 5-axis CNC machining, 7075-T6 aluminum, Type III hard anodizing
Result
An idea-to-delivery process that met the needs of the client's application quickly, with the client's direction built in at every prototype.
Capabilities used: Design & Engineering, Machining & Additive, Anodizing & Plating
