6061 Aluminum CNC Mounting Bracket

Project Overview

This custom mounting bracket was machined from 6061-T651 aluminum plate and required several distinct manufacturing steps on a single low-volume component. The part combined a large internal pocket, precision through-holes, threaded side features, and installed threaded inserts.

Project Snapshot

  • Industry: Industrial Equipment
  • Work type: Custom component / low volume
  • Material: 6061-T651 aluminum plate
  • Processes: CNC milling, drilling, threading, insert installation, dimensional inspection
  • Inspection: Formal dimensional inspection

Capabilities Demonstrated

  • Multi-operation CNC machining from aluminum plate
  • Large-pocket milling and contour machining
  • Precision drilling and threaded features
  • Threaded insert installation
  • Formal dimensional inspection and material certification support

Manufacturing Approach

The component was produced through multiple machining operations to establish the exterior geometry, large internal opening, hole pattern, side features, and insert locations. The job also required documented dimensional inspection before completion.
