Carbon Fiber Machining at LINK Composites utilizes advanced CNC machining techniques to precisely shape and trim carbon fiber composite materials. This process ensures tight tolerances and minimal delamination, delivering high-quality, structurally sound components for aerospace, automotive, and industrial applications.

Machining encompasses a variety of manufacturing processes aimed at shaping and removing material from a workpiece. This includes both computer-controlled processes, such as CNC milling, turning, and routing, as well as non-traditional methods like Electrochemical, Chemical, and Photochemical Machining.

CNC Machining

CNC Milling removes material with rotating cutters under precise multi-axis computer control, producing complex prismatic or sculpted parts with positional accuracy to ±0.005 mm and surface finishes ≤ Ra 0.4 µm. Machines span 3-axis vertical mills, 4-axis horizontals with pallet changers, and full 5-axis trunnion or gantry platforms, supporting everything from rapid prototypes to lights-out production in metals, plastics, and composites.

Carbon Fiber Machining

Composite Assembly and Finishing at LINK Composites involves precise joining and surface finishing of composite parts to create fully functional assemblies. Processes include adhesive bonding, mechanical fastening, and surface conditioning to ensure structural integrity and aesthetic quality.

Assembling involves putting together various metal components to form a complete unit. This can include methods like welding, riveting, and using threaded fasteners.

Assembling

Surface Conditioning prepares surfaces for finishing (e.g. paint, coatings) or to enhance physical properties through sandblasting, buffing, chemical etching, etc. Critical for adhesion, aesthetics, or final surface texture.

Surface Conditioning

Installs PEM inserts, Helicoils, bushings, and similar hardware so parts ship assembly-ready.

Light Mechanical Assembly

Spring Assembly & Integration combines precision-made springs with retainers, plungers, housings, or damping elements to deliver ready-to-install mechanical sub-assemblies. Automated cells perform press-fit, staking, adhesive bonding, and functional load-deflection tests, guaranteeing each assembly meets preload, travel, and fatigue-life criteria before shipment.
