Let’s Build Something Great, Together

Automation Manifolds Machining Capabilities

We provide comprehensive finishing solutions tailored to aerospace requirements:
Anodizing (Type II and Type III)
Passivation for corrosion resistance
Precision polishing for aerodynamic surfaces
Custom protective coatings and thermal barriers

Yes, we provide rapid prototyping to verify fit and test assembly, with same-day CAD-to-part capability available for critical projects. For custom automation cells and research platforms, we perform low-volume production of 20 to 500 brackets. For standardized robot models, we perform high-volume production of thousands to tens of thousands of brackets annually, incorporating complete dimensional inspection, flatness verification, and material certifications.

CNC machining achieves manifold dimensions of ±0.010 inches integrated within the system, leakage prevention with sealing gaskets by flattening the mounting surface to within 0.005 inches, recessed counterbore depth to ±0.003 inches for proper valve seating, and threaded ports to bleed valves with precision of ±0.0005. The positions of the ports are controlled to within ±0.005 for alignment with the actuators and valves, and ±0.003 for the valve cavity dimensions with ISO 7368 and CETOP standards for proper cartridge valve fit.

CNC milling processes are performed to produce manifold profiles with mounting surfaces, valve cavities, and port connections, which meet the standards of ISO 7368 or CETOP NG6/NG10. Cross-drilling allows the creation of intersecting internal passages, facilitating the routing of fluid between the valves and ports, and achieving positional accuracy of ±0.005 inches. Precision counterboring and counterdepthing are performed to control the depth of the valve cavity seats to within ±0.003. Thread milling completes the port threads to the specifications of ISO 228, and NPT and SAE standards. The face milling process within 0.005 inches flatness, allows the creation of flat mounting surfaces with the surfaces providing sealing for gaskets. The mounted bolt patterns for the valves and actuators are produced with coordinate drilling. The ports are smoothed for finishing and to reduce pressure drop.

In hydraulic and pneumatic systems, manifolds act as precision distribution blocks that integrate multiple fluid control circuits into compact assemblies. Different types are hydraulic valve manifolds accepting cartridge valves per ISO 7368 or CETOP standards, pneumatic manifolds distributing compressed air to 4 to 32 outputs, modular manifolds with stacking capability, sandwich manifolds installed between valves and actuators, subplate manifolds providing mounting surfaces and porting, custom circuit boards with integrated logic and flow control, oil distribution manifolds for lubrication systems, cooling manifolds for thermal management, and specialty blocks including proportional valve manifolds, servo control manifolds, and test manifolds for quality verif
