At ly-machining, we implement a comprehensive CNC quality control protocol to prevent surface defects such as scratches, dings, and handling marks throughout the entire production cycle. Our strategy focuses on meticulous damage prevention at every stage. During machining, we use optimized toolpaths and appropriate coolants to ensure a clean cut. Post-machining, each part undergoes a careful deburring and cleaning process.

The most critical step is our specialized parts handling procedure. We use custom-designed protective trays, soft packaging materials, and designated non-contact zones within the workshop. Every technician is trained to handle components with care, minimizing any risk of cosmetic damage before the final inspection. This strict adherence to process control is fundamental to delivering components that meet the highest surface finish quality standards.


Advantages and Disadvantages of Our Damage Control Protocol

Advantages:

  • Superior Aesthetics: Parts are delivered with a flawless, blemish-free surface finish as per your specifications.
  • Functional Integrity: Prevents minor surface damage that could compromise the tolerance or function of critical components.
  • High Acceptance Rate: Reduces the likelihood of parts being rejected, saving time and resources on rework or replacements.

Disadvantages:

  • Increased Handling Time: Meticulous handling and packaging add a small amount of time to the overall process.
  • Higher Material Costs: The use of specialized, high-quality protective packaging materials can slightly increase costs.

How We Do It

We begin by establishing strict handling guidelines specific to each project’s material and complexity. Parts are placed in custom fixtures or soft, separated packaging immediately after machining, and remain protected through inspection, finishing, and final shipping to ensure zero contact between components.

Expected Outcomes

You will receive finished parts that are cosmetically perfect and dimensionally accurate, reflecting the high level of precision and care that defines the ly-machining standard.
