Quality Control
Quality is the standard here at Aspex. From physical inspection, process control, material control, and our culture. We emphasize a quality over quantity culture that can be found throughout our process and our facility. With our management background in the aerospace industry, combined with our decades of experience we have the perfect combination of efficiency and quality. All projects are controlled with a traveller system from start to finish. From raw material to finished part. For physical inspection we have all the necessary tools for the job, from calipers, micometers, to bore gauges and everything in between. What sets us apart from most job shops is our temperature controlled inspection room with our Mitutoyo Crysta Apex CMM. This machine is state of the art with an unparalleled level of accuracy, and repeatability. When the complexity of the part, and tolerances require superior accuracy we have the machine to meet your specifications. The repeatability reduces time consuming and laborious tasks of physical inspection while also reducing human error. This brings you the highest level of quality with minimal cost.

FAQs
3 axis machining involves a workpiece in a fixed position while the cutting tool operates along the X, Y, Z plane to cut away material. 3-axis machining is most suitable for parts that do require a lot of depth and detailing
4-axis machining adds movement of the cutting tool and allowing rotation around the X axis. As a result, there are 4 axes X, Y, Z and A rotating around the X axis. The majority of 4 axis CNC machine tools allow the workpiece to rotate, which is called b-axis, so the machine can act as both milling machine and lathe.
5-Axis machining is a process where you take a large block and remove the excess. On a 5-axis machining-center, the cutting tool moves across the X, Y and Z linear axes as well as rotates on the A and B axes to approach the workpiece from any direction.
CNC milling (Computer Numerical Control Milling) is a machining process which utilizes computerized controls and rotating cutting tools to remove material from the workpiece to produce a specific product or part. The process is suitable for machining materials like metal, plastic, glass, and wood, and producing a variety of custom-designed parts and products.
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) turning is a machining process where computer-controlled machining tools operate a turning metal lathe removing material on part to reach a desired shape.
CNC machining costs depend heavily on the time needed, complexity, quantity, and size of the part. Complex large parts require longer machining time which increases costs. However, the higher quantities of parts can reduce the set-up costs and unit price.
Coordinate measuring machines (CMM) probes are transducers that convert physical measurements into electrical signals utilizing various measuring systems within the probe structure. CMM probes are a large category of instruments that use different technologies for direct and comparative measurements.
A bar puller also allows a CNC lathe or turning center to be automated which frees the operator to work on other projects. Unlike a bar feeder that pushes a bar through the lathe’s spindle, a puller pulls the bar from the spindle.
