Introduction:

HS Molds is a leading provider of CNC machining services, renowned for our expertise in high-precision CNC machining for aluminum turbine components. We are committed to exceeding client expectations, and recently collaborated with Innovative Tech on a groundbreaking project. This project involved machining a complex turbine component from high-performance aluminum alloy. The component demanded an astonishingly tight tolerance of ±0.02mm, pushing the boundaries of what’s achievable in ±0.02mm tolerance CNC machining services.

The Challenge:

The intricate turbine design featured tight tolerances and unique features, requiring meticulous machining processes. Aluminum alloys, while offering advantages in weight and strength, present their own set of challenges during CNC machining. These challenges include:

  • Maintaining machining accuracy with long-overhang cutting tools.
  • Ensuring rigidity and stability for semi-finishing with extended overhangs.
  • Balancing efficient material removal with delicate rough machining of internal cavities.
  • Preventing blade deformation during semi-finishing and finishing of thin-walled blades, typical of those used in open turbine blade manufacturing.

Our Expertise in Action:

At HS Molds, we possess the necessary expertise and advanced technology to overcome these complexities. Our team’s in-depth understanding of intricate machining projects and aluminum alloys was instrumental in achieving success. Utilizing state-of-the-art CNC machinery, our skilled machinists were able to achieve the remarkable ±0.02mm precision tolerance. Furthermore, we maintained clear communication and meticulous project management throughout the entire process, ensuring the final product met Innovative Tech’s exact specifications and performance requirements for their complex aluminum alloy CNC machining project.
