Technical Capabilities

Technical Capabilities: Advanced CNC Machining at Shenzhen Honyo Prototype

At Shenzhen Honyo Prototype, our manufacturing excellence is anchored in a precision-driven CNC machining infrastructure, equipped with industry-leading 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis milling centers, alongside high-precision CNC turning systems. These advanced platforms enable us to deliver complex geometries, superior surface finishes, and consistent repeatability across prototyping and low-volume production runs. Our machines are maintained to OEM specifications and calibrated regularly to ensure dimensional accuracy and process stability.

Our 3-axis CNC milling systems are optimized for high-speed machining of prismatic components, offering rapid material removal and tight geometric control. These machines support a wide range of materials and are ideal for parts with straightforward geometries requiring high accuracy. For components requiring indexing or rotational features, our 4-axis CNC mills integrate a rotary table to enable machining on four sides, reducing setup time and improving feature alignment.

The cornerstone of our complex part manufacturing is our 5-axis simultaneous CNC milling capability. Utilizing advanced multi-axis kinematics and high-resolution feedback systems, these machines allow for continuous cutting from five different angles in a single setup. This eliminates cumulative errors from multiple fixturing stages and enables the production of intricate organic shapes, deep cavities, and aerospace-grade components with minimal human intervention. All 5-axis systems are equipped with high-frequency spindles (up to 24,000 RPM) and tool probing for in-process verification.

Complementing our milling capabilities, our CNC turning centers support both bar-fed and chucked operations, handling diameters up to 300 mm. These lathes are equipped with live tooling for mill-turn operations, allowing us to produce fully finished turned parts with off-axis features such as cross-holes, flats, and keyways—eliminating secondary operations.

All machining processes at Honyo Prototype are governed by strict quality protocols. We maintain tight tolerances across all part dimensions, with standard capabilities reaching ±0.005 mm and geometric tolerances held to ±0.01 mm. Critical features can be controlled to ±0.002 mm using precision CMM inspection and in-process probing.

The table below outlines our standard tolerance specifications and compatible materials:

| Process | Standard Tolerance | Tight Tolerance | Typical Surface Finish (Ra) | Compatible Materials |

|———————–|——————–|—————–|—————————–|————————|

| 3-Axis Milling | ±0.01 mm | ±0.005 mm | 1.6–3.2 µm | Aluminum (6061, 7075), Steel (1018, 4140), Stainless Steel (303, 316), Brass, POM, PEEK, PC, ABS |

| 4-Axis Milling | ±0.01 mm | ±0.005 mm | 1.6–3.2 µm | Same as above |

| 5-Axis Milling | ±0.008 mm | ±0.002 mm | 0.8–1.6 µm | Same as above, including titanium and Inconel |

| CNC Turning | ±0.01 mm | ±0.005 mm | 1.6–3.2 µm | Aluminum, Steel, Stainless Steel, Brass, Plastics |

Our technical capabilities are reinforced by a skilled engineering team and integrated CAD/CAM workflows, ensuring optimal toolpaths, reduced cycle times, and adherence to design intent. At Honyo Prototype, we combine machine precision with manufacturing intelligence to deliver CNC-machined parts that meet the highest standards in aerospace, medical, automotive, and industrial applications.

From CAD to Part: The Process

From CAD to Part: Honyo Prototype’s CNC Production Workflow

At Shenzhen Honyo Prototype, transforming your digital design into a high-precision physical component follows a rigorously defined and efficient three-stage workflow. This structured approach, integrating advanced AI and deep manufacturing expertise, ensures optimal quality, cost-effectiveness, and minimal lead time for every CNC machining project. The journey begins immediately upon receipt of your CAD file and culminates in a rigorously inspected finished part.

The process initiates with our proprietary AI-Powered Quoting Engine. This system performs an instant, multi-faceted analysis of your uploaded CAD model (STEP, IGES, or native formats accepted). It meticulously evaluates geometric complexity, identifies critical features requiring tight tolerances (±0.005mm achievable), assesses material utilization based on your specified alloy (e.g., aluminum 6061-T6, stainless steel 304, titanium Ti-6Al-4V), and determines optimal machine type and setup requirements. Crucially, it factors in real-time machine availability within our Shenzhen facility and current production load. Within minutes, this analysis generates a highly accurate quotation detailing estimated machining time, material cost, secondary operations, and a firm delivery schedule, providing immediate transparency.

Following quote acceptance, the project enters the critical Design for Manufacturability (DFM) Review phase. Our senior manufacturing engineers conduct a hands-on analysis, moving beyond the AI’s initial assessment to identify potential production challenges and opportunities for optimization. This proactive step is where Honyo adds significant value, preventing costly revisions or delays later. Common focus areas include:

| Parameter | Critical Issue Identified | Honyo Resolution Strategy |

| :—————– | :——————————— | :——————————————– |

| Wall Thickness | Walls < 0.5mm risking deflection | Recommend minimum 0.8mm or suggest ribbing |

| Internal Radii | Sharp corners causing tool wear | Propose increased radius matching tool size |

| Feature Depth | Cavities exceeding 3x tool diameter | Suggest staged machining or alternative design |

| Tolerance Stack | Over-specified tolerances on non-critical features | Collaborate to relax tolerances where feasible |

Our engineers provide a detailed DFM report with actionable recommendations, often suggesting minor, non-functional design adjustments that dramatically improve machinability, reduce cycle time, and lower costs – always with your explicit approval before proceeding.

Upon DFM sign-off, the project transitions seamlessly into CNC Production. Our CAM programmers generate optimized toolpaths using industry-leading software (Mastercam, Fusion 360), selecting the precise cutting tools, speeds, feeds, and sequences for maximum efficiency and surface finish. Parts are assigned to the most suitable machine within our fleet of advanced 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis CNC machining centers (including HAAS and DMG MORI equipment), considering size, complexity, and material. Rigorous in-process inspections using calibrated CMMs and optical comparators verify critical dimensions at key stages. Final inspection against your original CAD model and specifications is mandatory before parts undergo any required post-processing (deburring, anodizing, passivation) and are carefully packaged for shipment. This integrated workflow, from AI analysis through expert DFM to precision production, is the cornerstone of Honyo Prototype’s ability to deliver complex, high-quality CNC machined components reliably and on schedule.
