Complex geometry in aluminum, titanium, stainless.

Scope of Service

Capability Highlights

Accuracy to ±0.005mm 3D, single-setup, verified on a CMM. Machine park includes 3/4/5-axis machining centers, CNC lathes and Swiss-type machines, with in-house fixture design and CAM simulation for first-pass success.

Quality System

Quality is verified, not assumed. First article inspection is mandatory on every new part number, and our quality engineers record CpK on critical dimensions for volume programs. With a coordinate measuring machine (CMM), surface roughness testers, and a temperature-controlled inspection room, measurement uncertainty is kept far below the tolerances we quote.

Lead Time & Packaging

Quotations with manufacturability feedback are returned within 24 hours of receiving your drawing or 3D model. Prototypes ship in 3-7 days; production orders run 7-15 days depending on quantity and finishing. Export packing uses anti-scratch film, VCI paper, or custom trays so parts arrive ready for your assembly line.

Why Customers Stay

Engineering support is included, not extra. Our CAM engineers review every drawing for manufacturability and cost reduction before quoting, and flag tolerance or finish decisions that materially affect price. Customers typically save 10-25% on program cost after this review.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is 5-axis CNC machining and why is it important? 5-axis CNC machining enables cutting tools to approach the workpiece from multiple angles in a single setup, eliminating repositioning errors and reducing lead times by 60-80%. It is essential for complex geometries like impellers, turbine blades, and surgical instruments where precision from multiple orientations is critical.

How many 5-axis machines does CHX Metal operate? CHX Metal operates 100 5-axis machining centers, one of the established fleets in the region. These machines support both 3+2 positioning and true simultaneous 5-axis machining for complex components.

What industries benefit most from 5-axis CNC machining? Key industries include industrial (turbine blades, structural brackets), medical (surgical instruments, surgical instrument), robotics (joint components, end effectors), optical communication (connector housings, lens mounts), and automotive (EV battery components, transmission parts).

What tolerance does CHX Metal achieve with 5-axis machining? CHX Metal achieves dimensional tolerance of +/-0.005mm with 5-axis machining. Our a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) perform full inspection on critical dimensions, and we maintain GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) compliance for industrial and medical applications.

Can CHX Metal machine complex geometries like impellers and blisks? Yes, CHX Metal specializes in complex geometry machining including industrial impellers, blisks, integral turbine blades, medical knee/hip surgical instrument, and optical communication components. Our true 5-axis machines handle root radii down to 0.2mm and surface finishes down to Ra 0.8um.
