Why was this job difficult?
Thin fins on small parts can flex easily during machining. Parts with a lot of material removed also tend to distort. Three points therefore mattered most on this job:
- ✓Thin fins
- ✓Distortion
- ✓Tolerance across the series
Project example · Europe
We machined a small finned electronics housing and its cover from 7075 aluminium in series, using a dedicated fixture for fast machining in a single setup.

Thin fins on small parts can flex easily during machining. Parts with a lot of material removed also tend to distort. Three points therefore mattered most on this job:
A custom fixture with 12 part positions was prepared for this job. The parts were machined in a single setup. This reduced machine loading, sped up production and held every part in the same position.
7075 is a high-strength aluminium alloy that machines well. It suits small parts that need a strong body at low weight.
A quality report and measurement record were prepared for the parts. They are customer-specific and are not published here.

FAQ
When a lot of material is removed, internal stresses are released and the part can change shape. Thin walls also flex under cutting forces.
Yes. On this project, small aluminium parts were machined in series. Share your drawing and quantity and we will review them.
Yes. The parts on this project were shipped uncoated. The surface requirement follows the drawing.
