Customer Requirement

Rapid CNC Machining for a US Robotics Customer

A robotics customer based in the USA approached Manufyn for a small batch of precision CNC machined aluminum components required for a robotic gripper application.

The requirement was for 10 components with a highly compressed delivery schedule. Manufyn coordinated engineering drawing review, CNC milling, dimensional inspection and international delivery.

The component was specified as an AD-100 Vertical Plate for a 2FGP20 OnRobot gripper. The drawing specifies Aluminum 1060, natural finish and an overall size of 1/4″ × 85 × 190 mm.

The Challenge

Small Quantity. Fast Turnaround. Global Delivery.

Robotics companies often require machined components in small quantities for prototype assemblies, testing, validation and early production.

For this project, the customer required only 10 components but needed the complete order delivered to the USA within just 7 days.

The challenge was therefore not simply machining the component. Manufyn had to coordinate manufacturing, inspection and international logistics within the same compressed timeline.

STEP 01
Engineering Drawing Review

The AD-100 drawing was reviewed for material, dimensions, holes and machining requirements.

STEP 02
CNC Milling

Aluminum 1060 was machined using CNC milling to produce the required profile and features.

STEP 03
Dimensional Inspection

The completed components were inspected using Trimos measurement equipment.

STEP 04
USA Delivery

The completed quantity of 10 parts was dispatched for delivery to the customer’s location in the USA.

Manufacturing Approach

CNC Milling for a Low-Volume Robotics Component

CNC milling was selected for the component because the requirement involved a small quantity and a short development timeline. This allowed Manufyn to manufacture the aluminum component without dedicated production tooling.

Aluminum CNC Machining

The component was manufactured from Aluminum 1060 using CNC milling.

Low-Volume Manufacturing

The order consisted of 10 components, making CNC machining suitable for this robotics requirement.

Quality Inspection

Finished components were inspected using Trimos measurement equipment before shipment.
