When manufacturing demands high dimensional accuracy, reliable conductivity, and consistent mechanical properties, custom brass parts are often the ideal choice. Brass’s machinability makes it compatible with complex part geometries, but to achieve repeatable, high-quality results, CNC turning remains the most efficient and cost-effective method for machined brass parts.It offers precision, speed, and flexibility—especially crucial …
If you’re designing a part and wondering how much it would cost to produce via CNC machining, you’re not alone. Price is often the most critical factor—especially for prototypes, small-batch runs, or cost-sensitive applications.
This guide explains what really affects CNC machining cost, what you can do to reduce it, and how to get …
In precision manufacturing, selecting the right machining method is more than a technical choice—it’s a strategic one. Understanding when to use CNC milling versus turning can save time, reduce costs, and improve the performance of your final parts.
At Jeek Rapid, we often see clients unsure which process best suits their designs. This guide breaks …
In prototype development, it’s easy to focus solely on performance and appearance. But when a design hits the production floor, manufacturability becomes the real test. A great concept can fail—not because it doesn’t work—but because it can’t be built efficiently.
That’s where Design for Manufacturability (DFM) plays a critical role. For CNC machining and low-volume …
In the world of product development, functionality and form are equally important. For engineers and designers working on structural or enclosure components, custom aluminum extrusion is a go-to manufacturing process—especially when unique profiles, weight optimization, and cost efficiency matter.
But what exactly is custom aluminum extrusion, and when does it make sense to use it …
When bringing a product to market, timing, cost, and technical accuracy all matter. That’s why low-volume manufacturing has become essential for hardware startups, design engineers, and R&D teams looking to validate ideas without committing to full-scale production.
Two of the most widely used methods for low-volume production are CNC machining and injection molding. Both …
In today’s era of miniaturization and high-performance demands, precision is no longer optional but essential. When manufacturing requires extremely tight accuracy, high-precision CNC machining becomes the standard in demanding industries.
This level of precision control means that machining errors must be kept within an extremely small range of 0.02mm — which is critical for the …
In the fast-paced product development process, prototypes are the crucial stepping stones to validate designs and capture the market. CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining, with its strong material adaptability and excellent processing capabilities, has become a core method in our manufacturing industry. However, engineers often face a fundamental dilemma: how to balance precision and speed? …
In modern manufacturing, ceramic materials have become widely adopted across various industries due to their high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and exceptional hardness. With the advancement of CNC machining in the 21st century, ceramics are now being precisely machined, opening new possibilities in electronics, medical, aerospace, and other sectors. However, the brittle nature and machining …
As the pace of rapid manufacturing and product validation continues to accelerate, vacuum casting has become a preferred low-volume production method among engineers and the Jeek product development team. It offers a cost-effective way to produce high-precision, high-surface-quality plastic parts—an ideal solution for functional testing and market validation before a product goes to mass production.…
