Aerospace machining
AS9100 certified, precision-first manufacturing for aerospace components and fit-critical interfaces—quoted with clear assumptions and measurable acceptance.
Built for aerospace expectations
Aerospace work breaks when assumptions are vague: which features are critical-to-function, how the part is verified, and what documentation is required at shipment. Our goal is to lock down feasibility and inspection intent before cutting starts.
What we optimize for
- AS9100 discipline: controlled revisions, traceability expectations, and documentation-ready communication.
- Fit-critical interfaces: datum-driven planning for bores, hole patterns, mating faces, and alignment features.
- Qualified tight tolerance capability: tolerances as tight as ± .0001 depending on material, geometry, and measurement method.
- Measurable acceptance: inspection intent aligned to how the assembly actually locates and functions.
- RFQ speed: fewer loops by asking targeted questions (datums, stackup, reporting) instead of generic back-and-forth.
RFQ inputs that win time
If you want a quote that matches drawing intent, send the complete package and call out the interfaces that truly drive function.
- PDF drawing + 3D CAD (STEP preferred) and the current revision identifier
- Material and condition (if known), quantity, and must-hit date
- Critical-to-function features highlighted (fits, bores, patterns, sealing faces)
- Inspection/reporting expectations (first article, dimensional report, objective evidence)
- Any special notes that affect acceptance (surface finish, masking, handling)
