Material & Process Compatibility

At Falcon CNC Swiss, we engineer machining parameters to align with the unique properties of each material, ensuring precision and longevity for critical components. Below are key materials and their optimized processes:

Titanium Grade 5

• Applications: Dental implants, surgical tool shafts.

• Process: Cryogenic machining (-50°C) to minimize galling in threaded sections.

Inconel 718

• Applications: High-temperature fittings, chemical processing components.

• Process: Adaptive toolpaths with ceramic inserts and high-pressure coolant (1,000 psi) to reduce thermal stress.

• Case Study: Machined 10,000 Inconel 718 bushings for industrial pumps, extending service life by 40% compared to traditional methods.

PEEK & Delrin®

• Applications: Medical device housings, food-grade connectors.

• Process: Low-RPM drilling (800 RPM) to prevent melting and ensure Ra 0.8µm finishes.

• Case Study: Delivered 20,000 PEEK insulators for MRI machines, meeting FDA and ISO 10993 biocompatibility standards.

Stainless Steel (17-4PH & 316L)

• Applications: Hydraulic valve stems, automotive sensor housings.

• Process: High-speed turning (1,200 RPM) with cryogenic cooling to mitigate work hardening.

• Case Study: Produced 50,000 stainless steel valve stems for oil & gas equipment, achieving ±0.005mm tolerances via real-time tool wear monitoring.
