Machined robot parts made to your drawing

A shaft may locate a bearing, a spacer may set a gap and an adapter may connect 2 mounting patterns. Explain the part's role, then name the drawing features that control it. This context helps the review focus on the surfaces and measurements your assembly depends on.

Use a controlled drawing with a part number and revision. Add the 3D model when available. State which record governs the build if the model and drawing differ. A file called final is not enough to manage later changes. The quote and order should name the actual revision that your engineering team has released.

State the material grade and the condition needed for the finished part. Include any heat treatment, hardness or material record your design calls for. Say how each need will be checked. The word steel or aluminum is too broad on its own. The drawing must define the grade and condition needed for the job.

Tell us if you must use a certain source or grade. State if you will review other choices. Any change needs review before material is ordered or parts are made. If you supply the material, list its ID, amount and records. Say what should happen to unused material or stock that fails your checks.

Mark the measurements that control fit and assembly. Give them the tolerances needed by your design. Name the reference faces or axes used to measure them. These references, often called datums on a drawing, help everyone check the part from the same starting point.

Include surface finish, thread and edge needs where they matter. A bore size alone may not define the whole bearing seat or mating interface. Show key depth, shoulders and relationships to other features. We do not publish a universal machining tolerance. The material, size, geometry and measuring method must be reviewed for the particular part.

• Show the complete thread form, size, pitch and required depth.
• Identify fitted diameters, locating faces and critical hole patterns.
• Define burr removal, edge breaks and any edges that must stay sharp.
• State whether final dimensions apply before or after coating or other treatment.

For a shaft, show each diameter, shoulder, groove, thread and end feature. Name the axis used for measurement and any limits on how surfaces align to it. If the part uses a key, pin or retaining feature, send the controlled detail and mating part details needed for review.

For a spacer, define the thickness, bore and contact faces that set the assembly relationship. A simple shape can still have a key function. If several spacer sizes are used in one assembly, give them distinct part numbers or a clear approved marking system. State whether parts must be packed as matched sets.

An adapter should show both mating sides and how they relate. Include the position and orientation of bolt patterns, pilots and passages. If the drawing sets which face is finished first for inspection, include that note. Show any feature that must line up with a bought device.

For a housing, include the internal features that a single outside view cannot show. Use sections to define pockets, bores, wall details and access openings. Name threaded inserts, plugs, seals or other bought items that are part of the assembly. If leak testing or another special check is needed, send the test spec for quote review.

Florida's Mazak and Mori Seiki mill turn equipment supports the machining offer. The review still needs to confirm part size, material, work holding and tool access. A machine name is not a promise that every drawing can be made on it. Bring unusual features or needed processes into the RFQ early.

A design change may make a feature easier to reach or alter the build sequence. Show that change clearly for your approval. The current drawing stays in force until the decision is recorded. A shop discussion must not change a thread, radius, surface or material on its own. Keep the approved change with the drawing revision.

Tell us which features need measured results and which records your receiving team needs. Name any measuring method that must be used to accept the part. Agree on how the part will be held during checks if that affects the result. The quote must confirm any special check services.

For a first article, define the sample count and the report you need. Name who approves the sample. Decide whether the rest of the build must wait for that approval. Keep the part checks separate from any customer fit or function test. If the sample needs a drawing change, state the new revision. Say what happens to parts already made.

Use the RFQ form to submit the PDF drawing, available model, part counts and target date. Include finish, marking and packaging needs. Call out protective handling for threads, fitted diameters and visible faces. If the part ships with a material or check report, state how that record must be linked to the shipment.

Ask us about available capacity, minimum part counts and lead time. No fixed turnaround or size range is implied by this page. For repeat work, send the expected release part count and how often you expect to order. Those planning figures support a review; they do not become a committed schedule until agreed.
