Diversified Capabilities Of DEK's Aerospace Machine Shop
5-axis CNC Machining
Basically, most industrial machining works on three fundamental axes, X, Y, and Z but a 5-axis CNC machining incorporates additional 2 rotary axis movements (A and B) which render it the ability to become multi-directional. It helps to reduce production time significantly by reducing multiple setups which, in turn, helps in reducing errors.
Many companies advertise about true 5-axis simultaneous machining while, in fact, they employ other versions such as 3+2 axis (3 axes for machining and 2 axes for positioning) and in some cases 4+1 (4 axes for machining and 1 axis for positioning).
Considering the varying complex contours of aerospace parts, it is a sensible choice to configure them using 5 Axis CNC machines. At DEK you’ll get an unmatchable service of true 5-axis simultaneous machining.
CNC Turning (Vertical and Horizontal)
DEK’s CNC-turning services incorporate cutting-edge precision technology to ensure speedy production along with tight tolerances. CNC turning is the best application for the parts with rotational symmetry. Our CNC turning processes include cutting, facing, threading, forming, drilling, knurling, broaching, and boring. Our 5-axis CNC Lathe machine, which turns materials at high speed while cutting away excess material, uses multiple high-speed spindles and is controlled by CAD (Computer Assisted Drawing) software. We follow blueprints to make sure the CNC Lathe produces precise specifications for small and large scale productions concerning all types of metals/alloys and the majority of plastics.
CNC Milling (Vertical and Horizontal)
DEK’s CNC-milling services incorporate cutting-edge precision technology to ensure speedy production along with tight tolerances. With a maximum 2,000 RPM of spindle speed, 8,000 RPM of rigid tapping speed, and 50 meters per minute of traverse speed, we can help you create designs from simple straight lines to complex geometric shapes with great reliability and repeatability. Our 5 Axis CNC machining can easily suit the high performance and rigorous demands of the aerospace industry. We can create G-codes from both a 3-D CAD file (.DWG) and a hard-copy print. We accept a wide array of file formats including .PDF, .DXF, .IGS, .SLDDRW, .SLDPRT, .STP etc. However, providing a 3D CAD file can cut the time spent on programming CNC milling code.
Swiss Precision CNC machining
We offer Swiss Precision CNC machining services to manufacture critical, small, and intricate aerospace components quickly with an exceptional degree of accuracy. Our high-tech Swiss machining lathes can rotate a component along 7+ different axes, allowing for the precise cut with tight tolerances. Furthermore, our Swiss turning equipment can do several operations simultaneously in multiple zones with reduced cycle-times, whereas a traditional lathe typically does a single operation at a time. We operate this technology using Part Maker CAD/CAM software. The additional capabilities of our Swiss CNC machining include deep-hole drilling, slotting, threading, and hobbing without multiple setups. Our Swiss CNC machining services can handle both high- and low-production volumes concerning different types of metals/alloys/plastics with a quick turn-around time.
Dimensional CMM inspection
CMM inspection is an important milestone for all aerospace engineering projects where precision and safety go hand in hand. This process ensures that your 2D drawings and CAD models are fully realized in terms of reliability, accuracy, and safety. However, very few machine shops have the technology and expertise to carry out proper third party inspection. Inside our temperature/humidity controlled lab where there is no possibility of thermal expansion, we utilize several contact and vision CMM systems to render precise dimensions of any component along X, Y and Z-axis. For the components that very tiny and fragile to employ contact measuring, we employ vision or non-contact CMMs that work with laser.

Compared to other metals or steels, it is lightweight, cheaper, state-of-the-art, and easily-workable, thereby contributing to fuel-efficiency as well as weight allowance.
Alloys of aluminum are also recognized in terms of their strength and corrosion-resistance, making them the ideal materials for machinery and engine components.
In spite of the introduction and advancement of other refined materials (new alloys and composites), aluminum and its alloys still have a decent range of applications inside the aerospace industry.
Titanium
Titanium is also a widely recognized material because of its low density, strength, and corrosion-resistance. Titanium came into the scene with the inception of cold-war and in the 1950s it gained a strong foothold in the aerospace industry. Although it is comparatively heavier than aluminium, its impressive strength implies that you may use less of it. Ti6Al4V is the popular grade of titanium.
Along with the introduction of various titanium alloys, military aircrafts are opting for titanium to manufacture stronger and lighter components.
Titanium is taken as the material for engine components, hydraulic systems, machinery, and aircraft structural frame.
Tungsten
Superalloys (High-performance alloys) are the group alloys that demonstrate unparalleled corrosion/oxidation resistant characteristics and retain their mechanical strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability at very high temperatures. Superalloys can become the ideal choice for a jet engine’s hottest sections, compressor, and turbine stages.
Alloys of aluminum are also recognized in terms of their strength and corrosion-resistance, making them the ideal materials for machinery and engine components.
In spite of the introduction and advancement of other refined materials (new alloys and composites), aluminum and its alloys still have a decent range of applications inside the aerospace industry.
Composite Materials
The use of composite material (mainly CFRP-Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic and GFRP-Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic) in the aerospace industry has been increasing rapidly since 1987. They are easy to handle, design, shape, and repair. They also play an important role in fuel efficiency and weight reduction. Previously, they were used for cabin components or light structural pieces but now they are also being used for landing gear, engines, wings, and fuselage skins.
Apart from these materials, we can work with varieties of other materials such as stainless steel, copper, chromium, brass, bronze, beryllium, manganese, molybdenum, platinum, graphite, etc. Our technology and team are capable of machining almost any of your specified materials.
