Custom Anodized Aluminum Flange Plate

Tags: , , , , ,
Custom CNC machined aluminum flange plate with a blue anodized finish, tri-arm design and central register bore

We manufactured a custom flange plate for a customer’s mounting assembly. This is a lightweight three-arm spider component, designed to position a rotating hub via its central locating bore and secure the entire assembly to the equipment frame through two independent bolt mounting layouts. The entire custom anodized aluminum flange plate is CNC milled from solid aluminum stock, then finished with bead blasting and blue anodization for improved surface performance and durability.

This flange plate serves dual purposes for mounting and positioning. The central round bore acts as the locating register, which fits over the hub to keep the entire assembly precisely concentric. An inner bolt pattern surrounding the central bore fixes the plate to the hub, while each of the three extended arms features an outer mounting hole for fastening to the matching structure. The cut-out triangular openings between the arms are functional rather than decorative. They remove excess material from non-critical areas to reduce overall weight, a key practical advantage for rotating and moving mechanical parts.

For applications requiring higher strength with a thinner, lighter component profile, we can fabricate the same design using 7075-T6 aluminum. This grade delivers improved mechanical strength, though its anodized finish will have a slightly softer color tone compared to standard aluminum.

Our Manufacturing Capabilities

5-axis CNC milling machine cutting an aluminum block during the manufacturing process.

Capabilities include 3-Axis, 4-Axis, and 5-Axis CNC Milling, as well as CNC Turning operations. Standard materials processed include Aluminum alloys, Stainless Steel, Titanium, etc. and Engineering Plastics. Available secondary operations include Anodizing, Powder Coating, Bead Blasting, and Laser Engraving.

Capacity supports requirements ranging from single-unit Rapid Prototyping to Low-Volume Production runs (1-1,000+ units).

Factory Quality Assurance

A highly accurate ZEISS Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) inspecting the internal dimensions and tight tolerances of a custom CNC machined component.

A standardized Quality Management System (QMS) is applied to all manufacturing orders, regardless of part complexity or production volume. The following inspection stages are mandatory for every CNC machining project:

  • Material Verification: Raw material certification (chemical composition and mechanical properties) is verified upon receipt to ensure compliance with material specifications.

  • First Article Inspection (FAI): The first unit from any production run undergoes a full dimensional report to validate the machining setup and programming before volume processing begins.

  • In-Process Monitoring: Periodic checks are conducted during the machining cycle to monitor tool wear and ensure dimensional consistency is maintained throughout the batch.

  • Final Inspection: Completed components undergo a final dimensional and cosmetic verification using CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) and calibrated manual instruments prior to packaging.

FAQs About CNC Machining Services

No. We support projects of all sizes, from a single prototype unit to low-volume production runs.

Standard lead times are typically 10–15 business days. Expedited services (Rapid Prototyping) can be completed in as little as 3–5 business days, depending on part complexity and material availability.

In most cases, we source materials from our approved suppliers to ensure quality control. However, we can machine customer-supplied materials for specialized alloys or specific requirements upon engineering review.

Unless otherwise specified, our general tolerance standard is ISO 2768-m (±0.125 mm) for metals and ±0.25 mm for plastics. Precision tolerances ±0.005 mm are achievable but must be explicitly stated in 2D technical drawings.

Our facility can accommodate parts up to 4000 x 1500 x 600 mm for milling and Ø200 mm x 500 mm for turning.

Yes. We can install inserts (e.g., Helicoils, PEM fasteners) and perform basic mechanical assembly of machined components prior to shipment.

To provide an accurate quote, we require a 3D CAD file (.step). If the part has threaded holes, tight tolerances, or specific surface finish requirements, a 2D PDF drawing must also be provided.

Not a problem at all. If you don’t have a 3D design, simply share your concept or requirements with us. We work with experienced partnered product designers who can help convert your ideas, hand-drawn sketches, or reference images into professional, manufacturing-ready 3D models.

Please note that 3D modeling services are subject to an additional design fee based on part complexity.

Absolutely. We offer full reverse engineering services for existing parts. Simply mail us your sample, and our engineering team will take care of the rest — from precise measurement and 3D modeling to final CNC production.

We take IP protection seriously. All files are stored securely, and we are willing to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) prior to receiving your data.

Yes. We can provide material certificates (COA) and dimensional inspection reports upon request. Please specify this requirement when placing your order.

We ship globally using major carriers (DHL, FedEx, UPS).
