What is Large Part CNC Machining for Aerospace OEMs?
Large part CNC machining refers to the manufacturing of oversized, heavy components using advanced computer-controlled equipment. In aerospace manufacturing, these large parts are crucial for the creation of ground support machinery such as fiber placement systems, waterjet cutters, autoclaves, and heavy-duty CNC machines.
At Lincoln Park Boring, we are equipped with vertical and horizontal CNC machining centers, gantry mills, and Blanchard grinders capable of handling components up to 480 inches in length and lifting up to 120 tons. Our facility’s size, temperature control, and specialized equipment allow us to maintain extremely tight tolerances even on massive parts—critical for supporting the next generation of aerospace manufacturing
Our precision manufacturing services help aerospace OEMs meet production demands without investing in specialized large-capacity equipment themselves, freeing them to concentrate on innovation and assembly.
What is Large Part CNC Machining for Aerospace OEMs?
Lincoln Park Boring’s precision manufacturing for aerospace component manufacturers ensures that the critical machines used in aircraft and spacecraft construction operate at peak performance. While we do not manufacture parts that fly, we play a vital role by machining the large-scale support equipment required for flight manufacturing, including:
Heavy-duty CNC Machines: Structural frames, machine bases, and bed plates for equipment machining fuselages, engines, and landing gear components.
Fiber Placement and Tape Laying Machines: Bases and major substructures required to build composite wings, fan blades, and fuselage sections.
Waterjet and Laser Cutting Equipment: Massive precision-machined tables and frames that ensure heavy materials can be shaped safely and accurately.
Autoclaves and Composite Curing Ovens: Machining of large door frames, flanges, and closure systems for ovens used in composite material manufacturing.
By trusting Lincoln Park Boring with large component machining, aerospace OEMs like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, SpaceX, and others can stay focused on their core mission: advancing aerospace technology and innovation.
