Automotive Precision Machining Parameters and Uses
Component Type | Typical Tolerances | Materials Used | Common Applications | Benefits |
Engine Components | ±0.01mm – ±0.005mm | Aluminum 6061-T6, Steel alloys, Titanium Grade 5 | Engine blocks, cylinder heads, pistons | Higher performance, better fuel efficiency |
Transmission Parts | ±0.015mm | Steel alloys, Aluminum, Brass | Gears, shafts, clutch assemblies | Smoother shifting, less noise, longer life |
Fuel System Parts | ±0.008mm | Stainless Steel 304/316, Aluminum | Fuel rails, injector nozzles | Precise fuel delivery, better emissions |
EV Components | ±0.01mm | Aluminum, Copper, Engineered plastics | Motor housings, battery trays, charging ports | Lighter weight, better heat management |
Brake Systems | ±0.02mm | Cast iron, Stainless steel, Aluminum | Calipers, master cylinders, ABS components | Improved stopping power, safety |
Suspension Parts | ±0.025mm | Aluminum, Steel alloys | Control arms, steering knuckles | Better handling, durability |
Our Automotive Precision Machining Technologies
At Istar Machining, we use the latest tools to make perfect car parts:
1. 5-Axis CNC Machining
Our 5-axis machining systems can make complex parts in one setup. This means:
- Less human error
- Faster production time
- Better surface finish
2. CNC Turning for Round Parts
We use advanced CNC turning machines for shafts, bushings, and other round parts that need to be perfect.
3. EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining)
For super-tough materials or tiny details, our sinker EDM machining can cut through the hardest metals with amazing accuracy.
4. Swiss-Type Lathes
For small, precise parts like fuel injector components, our Swiss machines work to tolerances as small as ±0.005mm!
Materials We Work With for Automotive Parts
Istar Machining can work with almost any material needed for modern vehicles:
- Aluminum Alloys: Lightweight parts for better fuel economy
- Stainless Steel: For parts that need to resist rust and heat
- Titanium: When strength and light weight are both important
- Engineered Plastics: For lightweight, heat-resistant components
- Copper: For electrical components in modern vehicles
- Brass: For fuel system components and fittings
Popular Automotive Applications
Engine Block Milling (±0.01mm)
Our Engine block milling service creates perfectly flat surfaces for head gaskets. This means:
- No oil leaks
- Better compression
