Aluminum
6061 is the everyday grade—clean cutting for fixtures and housings. 7075 is stronger when the part has to carry load. Aluminum-magnesium alloys are lighter and more corrosion-resistant than those two.
Machining
CNC Machining
Precision CNC—tight-tolerance parts, prototype to production.
Our CNC cells produce prototypes through volume runs with stable process control. We support multi-axis work, secondary operations, and inspection aligned to your drawings—with heat treatment and QC available under one roof. Turning covers high-hardness materials and post-heat-treatment machining, so hardened parts stay in one shop.
What you get
- Milling & turning with tight dimensional control
- Hard turning and machining after heat treatment
- Prototype to production in one partner
- Inspection-ready documentation on request
Where it fits
Fixtures, housings, shafts, brackets, and custom machine components.
Why FlareMetal
In-house machining paired with heat treatment and QC shortens handoffs and lead time.
Materials we machine
Copper
Conducts heat and electricity and cuts cleanly, for parts that need copper.
Stainless steel
Corrosion-resistant parts.
Alloy steels
SCM440 (4140) for shafts and gears that need strength. SCM415 is a carburizing steel with a hard case. SNCM220 (8620) is also carburized, with a tougher core. SNCM439 (4340) is for high-toughness loaded parts.
SKD11 and SKD61
SKD11 (D2) is a cold-work die steel—wear resistant, used for punches, dies, and gauges. SKD61 (H13) is a hot-work die steel that keeps its strength at temperature, for hot tooling and related parts.
Plastic steel
Stable size, wear resistant, and it does not rust—used where the part does not need to be metal.
Frequently asked questions
What materials and tolerances can you CNC machine?
We machine common engineering metals (steels, stainless, aluminum, copper alloys) and selected engineering plastics, including high-hardness materials. We also machine parts after heat treatment (hard turning / post-HT finishing). Tolerances follow your drawing; tight-tolerance features are planned with process control and inspection.
Can you turn high-hardness materials and machine after heat treatment?
Yes. We hard-turn high-hardness stock and finish parts after heat treatment, so you do not have to send hardened work to a second shop.
Do you handle prototypes and production volume?
Yes. The same CNC partner can run first articles through volume lots, so process knowledge stays with one team from tryout to scale-up.
What should I send for a CNC quote?
2D drawings (PDF) and 3D models when available, material, quantity (prototype / annual), surface finish or heat-treat notes, and any critical inspection requirements.
Can machining be combined with heat treatment and QC?
Yes. FlareMetal integrates CNC with on-site heat treatment and quality control in Taichung—fewer supplier handoffs and clearer accountability.
