Operators and CNC milling machines in the SENLAN workshop

SENLAN / MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES

Precision is
a process.

From your drawing to the features that fit.

CNC machining · EDM & Wire EDM · Precision grinding

FOUR CONNECTED CAPABILITIES

The feature comes first.
The route follows.

Choose the process closest to your component. Each guide connects the feature, the equipment and the information needed for review.

GEOMETRY / ACCESS / FIT / MATERIAL

01 / GEOMETRY & DATUMS

Establish the geometry.
Keep the reference.

CNC milling and turning for custom mold inserts, cores and sleeves. Review pockets, contours, related diameters and the datums needed by the next operation.

CNC milling CNC turning

02 / ACCESS & DETAIL

Reach the detail.
Define the contour.

Sinker EDM for blind cavities and local forms. Wire EDM machining for through profiles and fitting contours. Access, corner radii and surface requirements guide the route.

Sinker EDM Wire EDM

03 / SURFACES & FITS

Finish the surface.
Control the relationship.

Surface, cylindrical and internal grinding for fitting faces, diameters and bores. Agree the datum plan, material condition and inspection criteria for the features that determine fit.

Surface grinding OD / ID grinding

04 / GRADE & CONDITION

MATERIAL & CONDITION · SPECIALIST COORDINATION

Your specified material.
A coordinated treatment route.

Retain your specified grade, brand and source. SENLAN coordinates heat treatment with professional specialist suppliers to meet the agreed material and performance requirements.

How treatment coordination works

1. Confirm the specified material and required condition.

2. Coordinate the treatment scope with professional specialist suppliers.

3. Agree the supplier documents and post-treatment checks.

Specialist coordination—not in-house furnace production.

A typical route. We confirm the sequence, critical checks and required records for your component.

01 Drawing Review

Confirm

Revision, material, datums and the features critical to fit.

Process support

Review the 2D drawing and available 3D model.

Record

Drawing review notes and confirmed requirements.

02 Process Planning

Confirm

Sequence, holding, finishing stock and inspection checkpoints.

Process support

Plan machining; coordinate specified heat treatment with specialist suppliers.

Record

Process route, checkpoints and supplier-document requirements.

03 Manufacturing

Confirm

Released revision, setup references and material condition.

Process support

CNC machining, EDM and grinding selected for the feature.

Record

Operation records and specified supplier treatment documents.

04 In-Process Checks

Confirm

Critical dimensions and allowances before the next operation.

Process support

Feature-appropriate checks at the planned checkpoints.

Record

Checkpoint measurements and rechecks where required.

05 Final Inspection

Confirm

Specified dimensions, surface condition and reporting scope.

Process support

Measurement methods matched to geometry and datums.

Record

The agreed inspection report and specified results.

06 Packing

Confirm

Identification, quantity, protection and accompanying documents.

Process support

Clean, separate and secure parts to the agreed requirements.

Record

Packing list and dispatch check; photos when requested.

Drawing and process photographs are independent references, not one order shown in sequence. Inspection and documentation scope is agreed for each component.

MEASUREMENT & DOCUMENTATION

Check the feature.
Keep the record.

The datum, measurement method and reporting scope matter as much as the nominal dimension.

+   Agree the critical features and mating requirements.

+   Match measurement methods to geometry and datums.

+   Confirm the inspection results and documents required.

START WITH YOUR COMPONENT

The next critical detail
starts with your drawing.

Share the critical features. We review feasibility, the process route and the quotation scope.

A USEFUL ENQUIRY INCLUDES

01   Drawing & model
Current 2D revision and available 3D data.

02   Material & requirements
Specified grade, condition, fits and surfaces.

03   Quantity, timing & records
Batch size, target date and required inspection documents.

BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE

Good questions.
Clear starting points.

Which machining process does my mold component need?

Start with the drawing, material condition, mating features and required finish. CNC machining establishes accessible geometry, EDM supports features with different access, and precision grinding finishes specified surfaces and fits. The route is confirmed for the actual component.

Can CNC machining, EDM and grinding be combined?

Yes. A component may need several processes. The review connects the datum system, remaining stock and inspection checkpoints so each operation hands over the right condition to the next.

How is heat treatment coordinated?

Heat treatment is entrusted to professional specialist suppliers. SENLAN coordinates the specified material, required condition and agreed documentation. The Materials & Heat Treatment page explains this relationship.

What should I send for a quotation?

Send the current 2D drawing, available 3D model, material and condition, quantity and required date. Highlight critical fits, surface requirements and the inspection records you need. Include mating-part information for replacement components.
