Rapid CNC Machining

For prototype quantities of custom metal and plastic parts, CNC Machining is often the best process, short of tooling, to match proposed production-part properties. We take your 3D CAD model and create precision CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) vowin.cn/en/News/news1251.html' target='_blank'>machining paths that guide our equipment to follow every contour and hole. The result is a precisely replicated part, exactly matching your original design.

When should I consider Rapid CNC Machined prototype parts?

You should choose Rapid CNC whenever you require parts in the exact material you plan on using in production. Other rapid prototype processes can often simulate the final material, but we know there are times when substitution is just not an option.

Can you also provide machined parts in production quantities?

Yes, we can! APT can help you reduce product costs and increase your competitive edge by utilizing our automated CNC machining capabilities. We are committed to provide you with the best machined products and services at the most competitive prices.

APT’s capabilities include CNC Machining, CNC Milling, CNC Turning, and High-Precision CNC Machining.

Materials:

The type of rigid materials available when using the CNC Machining process are virtually unlimited. We can source whatever materials your design requires. Some of the most common materials we utilize are:

Plastics: ABS, Polypropylene, PMMA ( like Plexiglas® acrylic), PC (polycarbonate, Lexan®), Nylon, POM (Delrin® acetal), and more. Check out the prototyping properties of plastics. Contact us about other possibilities.

Metals: Aluminum, Low-Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Brass, Copper, and more. Check out the prototyping properties of metal. Contact us about other possibilities.

PMMA Part Machining

Sample Our Work

At  APT Mold, we have experience making highly cosmetic parts (exterior housings, lenses, etc.) as well as less visible mechanical parts (chassis, brackets, gears, etc.). We service markets ranging from industrial to home appliance, from automotive to consumer products, and from medical to scientific.

Prototype Finishes

APT can also supply parts with varying types of finish depending on your exact needs.

Can you supply parts that are truly transparent?

We can supply water-clear parts with a combination of hand sanding, polishing, and clear coating, using either a clear SLA resin or CNC machined clear acrylic or polycarbonate.

What kind of metal finishes can you provide?

In the case of metal prototypes, we can provide a variety of cosmetic and protective finishes ranging from chromate conversion coats to plating, anodizing, and more.
