What machining options should I compare?

Explore the machining services and broader options relevant to your component.

What material and finish are specified?

Bring the material and finish into the part enquiry, including what is specified and what remains open.

Which PH grade and condition apply?

Find the grade and condition details relevant to a 17-4 PH or 15-5 PH machining enquiry.

What belongs in a passivation enquiry?

See what a passivation enquiry needs to cover alongside the stainless part.

What first-article records are required?

Review first-article package topics before requesting the records needed for your order.

How do I define the machining request?

Prepare a clear machining request and compare what is included in a proposed order.

Start with the machining you need.

For a milled component

Use the milling page to explore custom parts, replacements and repeat work. Keep the current specification and any important mating details ready for the enquiry.

For a turned component

Use the turning page for the rotational component you need. Include the specified material and important mating or surface requirements in the proposed work.

Keep the order clear from the start.

Inspection requirements

Include the inspection or review requirements the order must address, rather than assuming a standard package.

Supporting records

Name the material, process or traceability records you need considered with the part.

Next-build planning

Separate the first order from possible later batches, so the immediate job stays clear.
