rapid response 5 axis machining

Rapid Response with Di-Spark Ltd

Di-Spark’s rapid response 5 axis machining cell offers the latest in precision 5 axis machining technologies, running 24/7 and configured to handle any rapid response 5 axis machining requirement. ‘Rapid Response’ is suitable for customers requiring precision machined components manufactured within a short time frame and short notice, such as Formula 1 last-minute engineering and pre-season development phases, or indeed, just-in-time machining customers such as aerospace manufacturing – where components are delivered ‘just-in-time’ as part of a ‘just-in-time inventory management’ strategy. Whilst meeting deadlines which may initially appear ‘somewhat unrealistic’, rapid response 5 axis machining also works into any lean manufacturing strategy, saving money by removing the requirement to keep expensive components in stock for overly lengthy periods of time – ‘pay for it when you need it‘.

Our rapid response 5 axis machining operational work flow is as follows:

  • Work directly with the customer’s supplied component step file
  • Work with the Step file – via rapid response, to a CAD model
  • Carry out CAD Model key dimensional check on DRG
  • CAM machining operation: rapid response 5 axis machining
  • Deliver to customer
  • Lead time: 2 weeks

Our rapid response 5 axis machining cell manufactures high quality, rapid response product within short lead times. Certified to AS9100 revision C for ‘the machining of complex prismatic components and sub-assemblies to customer specifications using advanced machining technologies such as multi-axis milling, multi-axis turning and electrical discharge machining (EDM)’, our rapid response cell carries the following capability:
