CNC Machining Tolerance Reference Table

Machining Level Equipment Type General Dimensional Tolerance Hole Tolerance Surface Roughness (Ra)
Standard Precision 3-Axis CNC / Lathe ±0.10 – ±0.20 mm ±0.10 – ±0.15 mm 3.2 – 6.3 μm
Precision Level 4-Axis / 5-Axis / Mill-Turn ±0.025 – ±0.05 mm ±0.02 – ±0.05 mm 1.6 – 3.2 μm
High Precision 5-Axis Simultaneous / 9-Axis ±0.005 – ±0.01 mm ±0.005 – ±0.01 mm 0.4 – 1.6 μm
Ultra Precision Ultra-Precision / EDM / Nano Machining ±0.001 – ±0.005 mm ±0.002 – ±0.005 mm 0.1 – 0.4 μm

CNC Machining Design Guidelines

Design Feature Optimization Guideline
Inner Corner Radii Ensure your inner radii are 0.020″-0.050″ larger than standard drill bits. Maintain a diameter-to-depth ratio of 1:4 to achieve optimal machining efficiency.
Base / Floor Fillets Design base fillets smaller than vertical corner radii. This allows the same cutting tool to clear bottom material seamlessly, saving you setup time.
Undercut Dimensions Utilize standard tooling sizes for all undercuts. Position them away from tight corners to guarantee easy access for the cutting tool.
Threaded Hole Clearance Add extra drill depth beyond the required threaded section. This clearance allows the tap to create fully formed threads securely.
Part Complexity Minimize non-functional intricate cuts to lower your total manufacturing costs. Focus on essential features that balance mechanical performance and aesthetics perfectly.

Premium Surface Finishes for Aluminum Parts

Maximize durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetics. RALLY offers comprehensive post-machining treatments tailored to your exact engineering specifications.
As-Machined
Bright, with visible CNC tool marks.Standard surface roughness of Ra 1.2 – 3.2 μm (125 μin).
Anodizing
Type II (Standard): Provides excellent corrosion resistance and cosmetic customization. Type III (Hardcoat): Produces a much thicker layer for extreme wear resistance and surface hardness.
Laser Carving
Mark your parts permanently with high-contrast logos or part numbers without altering the metal's structural integrity.
Bead Blasting
A uniform matt or satin finish. Removes minor machining marks and burrs to create a non-reflective surface.
Powder Coating
It forms a protective layer that is impact-resistant and more durable than traditional liquid paints.

FAQ for Aluminum CNC machining

Q1:What is the difference between 3+2 machining and continuous 5 Axis CNC Machining?
In 3+2 machining, the cutting tool remains locked at a fixed angle during operation, whereas continuous 5-axis machining moves all five axes simultaneously to flawlessly carve highly complex, continuous contours.
You achieve the fastest and most accurate quotes by submitting 3D files in STEP, IGES, or X_T formats, accompanied by a 2D PDF drawing specifying your strict tolerances and required surface finishes.
Yes. While the hourly rate is higher, you significantly reduce overall costs because parts are finished in a single setup. You eliminate expensive custom fixtures and drastic labor costs associated with manual repositioning.
Absolutely. You face zero minimum order constraints. You can validate your complex design with a single prototype first. Once verified, you smoothly scale up to large-batch manufacturing.
You rely on our AS9100-certified facility. Your parts undergo strict validation using advanced CMM equipment.
You achieve excellent results with aerospace-grade aluminum (like 6061 and 7075) due to its superb machinability.
Yes. You benefit from advanced surfacing tool paths. By combining these strategies with post-machining finishes like bead blasting, polishing, or anodizing, you receive a flawless, aesthetic final product.
You can expect rapid prototypes within 3 to 7 business days. For larger production runs, timelines adjust based on complexity.
