Understanding CNC Machining for Small Parts

CNC machining small parts requires exceptional precision and specialized equipment. At AOOM, we utilize advanced 5-axis CNC machines capable of producing miniature components with tolerances as tight as ±.005mm. Our expertise in micro-machining allows us to create complex geometries in materials ranging from aluminum and brass to titanium and engineering plastics.

Key Challenges in Small Part CNC Machining

Manufacturing small CNC machined components presents unique challenges that demand specialized solutions. These include tool deflection, heat dissipation, and material handling. Our technicians overcome these obstacles through:

• High-speed spindles (up to 50,000 RPM) for clean cuts
• Micro-tooling capabilities down to .1mm diameter
• Advanced coolant systems for temperature control
• Vision-assisted loading for precise part positioning

Applications of Precision Small Parts

The demand for CNC machined miniature components spans across multiple industries. Our clients in medical, aerospace, electronics, and automotive sectors rely on our capabilities for:

• Surgical instrument components
• Microfluidic devices
• Connector pins and sockets
