I have touched before on Peridot’s reputation as experts in micro-machining. In the last couple of years as we continue to acquire and place into service larger CNC machines we can now demonstrate expertise in considerably larger parts. I will present a few here for your consideration.
Our first example:
Part Name: Corona Guard Upper
Description: CNC turned plate with secondary milling operations
Material: 316 stainless with Titanium nitride coating and laser marking
Next up it the previous part’s companion in the assembly.
Part Name: Corona Guard Lower
Description: CNC turned plate with secondary milling operations
Material: 316 stainless with Titanium nitride coating and laser marking
Next is a cover for an aerospace electronics assembly.
Part Name: Cover plate, top
Description: CNC milled cover plate
Material: 5052 H32 Aluminum
Again followed by it’s companion part in the assembly
Part Name: Cover Plate, bottom
Description: CNC milled cover plate
Material: 5052 H32 Aluminum
Next in the series is an aluminum heat sink for a network router.
Part Name: Heat Sink
Description: CNC Milled fins and turned mount
Material: 6061 T6 Aluminum
As discussed in a previous blog post, Peridot excels at CNC machining of plastics. This is often far easier than machining some of the high performance materials such as Inconel and Hastalloy. Our next example:
Part Name: Indexer Plate
Description: CNC Turned/milled complete on mill/turn center
Material: White Nylon
Another example of machined Nylon.
Part Name: Aperture Indexer
Description: CNC Turned/Milled on Mill/Turn center
Material: White Nylon
Shifting gears here to an assembly used in a Spinal procedure. Lots of swoopy 3D curves on this one!
Part Name: Assembly,Jacking
Description: CNC milled 6 piece assembly
Material: Heat Treated and Bead Blasted 420 stainless
The final 3 parts in this series are all Optics Platforms for a laser resonator cavity. These all have extraordinarily tight tolerances for parallelism and perpendicularity as alignment in this application is critical to functionality.
Part Name: Laser Resonator Cavity Optics Platform
Description: CNC milled on dual pallet Horizontal mill
Material: 6061 T6 Aluminum
As you can see Peridot has significantly expanded our machining capabilities by making substantial investments in new state-of-the-art multi-axis machines. We hope you take advantage of this capability!
