Manufacturing Planning
Our engineering experts use your drawing specifications to develop an optimized manufacturing process. During its development, we assess the process for manufacturability, cost reduction opportunities and potential risks. We’ll quote your part with the best manufacturing process and if there’s any opportunities, we’ll raise the question with the goal of saving you time and money.
Swiss CNC Turning Services
Our Swiss CNC turning machines can be used to produce all types of complex components, from connectors to fasteners, fittings, and screws. It is our commitment to owning only the most advanced technology that allows us to manufacture precision machined parts at competitive prices. Fairchild possesses seven-axis CNC Swiss turning machinery equipped with magazine auto bar feeders that can maintain an ultra-tight tolerance of just (+/-) 0.0001 of an inch.
From boring and deburring to broaching, deep-hole drilling, and threading, we have successfully assisted a wide range of industries from medical to aerospace and marine defense. We can operate on a wide variety of parts in a broad array of sizes, shapes, and materials measuring up to 1.25 inches in diameter
CNC Turning & Milling
Our shop is well-equipped with top-of-the line CNC turning and milling machinery capable of holding ultra-precision tolerances down to (±) 0.0001 of an inch. Our five-axis CNC turning machinery possesses magazine auto bar feeders and can manufacture parts measuring up to 2 inches in diameter. We can also chuck individual work pieces measuring up to 6 inches in diameter.
In addition, our high-speed, live tooled four-axis vertical machining center comes equipped with a large work envelope and turn-table stock changers. Our VMC can perform both contour milling and profiling operations, offering a repeatability of just (+/-) .0001 of an inch. Even on the most complex parts, our advanced milling equipment can machine reamed or tapped holes at precise locations.
Mechanical Assembly
With our top-notch custom assembly operations, Fairchild Auto-Mated Parts offers comprehensive services at competitive prices that have successfully served the needs of multiple industries, ranging from aerospace to consumer goods. While we focus on box-build/bench top custom assembly, we also specialize in electro-mechanical assemblies for the aerospace industry.
Outside Services
We have spent years selecting and vetting vendors to provide the specialized services your parts need. Our network of approved vendors provide services including but not limited to plating, heat treating, grinding, laser marking, brazing, testing and particle inspection. We collaborate closely with these partners to ensure the specifications are met and lead times are minimized.
Past Project Spotlights
We’ve machined parts for industries including aerospace, defense, musical instruments, oil exploration, electrical hardware, HVAC systems, and high-end measuring devices. We are always willing to take on new orders for any industry, ensuring we fully understanding the specifications and are confident in our ability to deliver a quality part.
Jeweler Hand Tool
Fairchild manufactures this delicate part from an aluminum extrusion supplied by customer. Special features include a .0005″ tolerance bore that receives a precision high speed bearing. The part is used in a high speed hand piece used by jewelers and dental technicians.
HVAC Valve Piece
This two-piece assembly was designed by Fairchild’s engineers as part of a cost reduction program that resulted in saving a customers over $45,000 annually. Fairchild makes both parts and then assembles them, providing a part that is ready for insertion into the valve body used in in HVAC control system.
"Flat work" Component
This part is an example of “flat work” machining performed on Fairchild’s high speed vertical machining centers.
Aerospace - Welded Component
Example of a two-piece welded assembly used in aerospace maintenance equipment.
Brass Valve Piston with O-Ring
