Large CNC Machining for Structural Components

DEK machines brackets, housings, frames, and structural plates up to 1000mm that exceed a standard job shop’s capacity. With no minimum order quantity, a single large prototype gets the same engineering review as a full production order.

Large CNC machining at this scale lives or dies on workholding and thermal control. Send your drawing and our engineers confirm machining envelope and fixture setup before you commit; contoured parts move to 5-axis machining. Prefer a direct conversation? Talk with our experts.

Large Part CNC Machining vs. Other Processes

Choose large part machining when size and mass exceed standard capacity; move to 5-axis when contours or compound angles dominate.

Criteria This ProcessLarge Part CNC Machining 5-Axis CNC Machining Standard CNC Machining
Best for Structural parts to 1000mm Contoured, compound angles Parts in standard capacity
Typical tolerance ±0.005mm per feature ±0.01mm profile Per drawing
Workholding Custom fixtures per project Single setup Standard vises
Main risk managed Sag, chatter, thermal drift Repositioning error Routine setups

Large Parts for Demanding Industries

We machine large structural parts for aerospace, industrial equipment, energy, and robotics, with the same inspection stages in every sector.

Oversized Parts and Challenges We Solve

Large CNC parts shift, sag, or drift if fixturing and heat are not controlled. These are the geometries and problems we handle.

  • Large Brackets

    Heavy-duty brackets up to 1000mm, held rigid by custom fixtures through every operation.

  • Housings & Enclosures

    Corrosion-resistant or lightweight housings for process equipment and machines.

  • Frames & Machine Bases

    Structural frames and heavy machine bases sized beyond a standard job shop's capacity.

  • Structural Plates

    Large plates checked for flatness by CMM after cut sequencing that limits heat buildup during roughing.

  • Complex Large Contours

    Blended fillets and compound angles cut on 5-axis machines in one setup to hold profile.

Common Challenges We Handle

  • Workpiece Sag & Chatter

    We build custom fixtures matched to each part's mass and geometry instead of forcing it into standard vises.

  • Thermal Drift

    Coolant strategy and cut sequencing limit heat during long roughing cycles; finish passes run once the part has stabilized.

  • Accuracy Over 1000mm

    Machines are sized to hold tolerance across the full part length, not just near the chuck or vise; full-span accuracy is confirmed in review.

  • Heavy Part Capacity

    Weight capacity depends on machine and fixture. Send dimensions, material, and estimated weight so engineers confirm fit before quoting.

Large Part Machining FAQs

Answers on cost, weight, shipping, and tolerance for oversized CNC parts.

How much does it cost to get a part CNC machined?
Cost depends on part size, material, and tolerance. Large parts add workholding and machine-time cost on top of standard CNC machining rates, so send your drawings for an accurate quote rather than estimating from generic per-inch pricing.
How much can a single large part weigh?
Weight capacity depends on the specific machine and fixture used for your part. Send dimensions, material, and estimated weight with your drawing, and our engineers will confirm workholding and machine fit before quoting.
Does large part machining cost more to ship?
Yes. Oversized components typically need custom crating and freight quoted per part based on size, weight, and destination. This is calculated alongside your machining quote, not estimated separately.
Can you hold tight tolerance across a full 1m part?
Per-feature tolerances of ±0.005mm (±0.01mm profile on 5-axis work) hold regardless of part size. Positional accuracy across a full 1000mm span depends on fixture rigidity and is confirmed during design review, not assumed from a spec sheet.
