eMachineShop is a unique online manufacturing machine shop which allows its clients to download easy-to-use & free 3D CAD software which they can use to design objects like personal computer chassis, car parts, door knobs in metal, or many types of plastic. Customers receive instant quotes from the software and may then order their custom parts online which eMachineShop fabricates its 'real world' machine shops for manufacturing.
It is a first of its kind of shop that allows customers the freedom to design custom machine parts at their fingertips through its specially designed easy to use design software. Customers are not limited to a single machining process; they may select multiple machines and specify the machining sequence to be followed. Some key machines, which are used in the manufacturing process, along with their usage are as follows:
?Bending Machine: Bends sheet metal to an angle
?Blanking Machine: Custom punch cuts shape in one hit
?Pressure Die Casting: Molten metal forced into mold
?Counter boring: Rotating tool enlarges upper portion of hole
?Drawing: Sheet metal formed by successive stamping
?Finishing/Polishing/Anodizing: Various methods of treating surface of work piece
?Forging: Heated metal pressed into mold
?Surface Grinding: Abrasive wheel creates uniform flat surface
?Honing: Tool with rotating abrasive enlarges hole
?Knurling: Textured tool presses coarse textured pattern
?Laser Cutting: Laser beam vaporizes cut path
?Milling Machines: Rotating cutter moves on 3 axis
?Compression: Heated rubber pressed into mold
?Molding, Injection: Molten plastic forced into mold
?Photochemical Milling: Chemical dissolves masked sheet
?Plasma Cutting: A plasma arc vaporizes the cut path
?Rapid Prototype: Fused plastic deposits in 3D space
?Reaming: Precision cutting tool creates accurate hole
?Sawing: Cutting blade cuts material in straight line
?Shearing: Scissors-like action cuts material in straight line
?Silk Screen: Ink is forced thru a mess that holds a graphic pattern
?Spring Forming: Wire formed into helical shapes
?Spur gears cutting: Cutting of plain 2D gears
?Thermoforming: Heated thin sheet is formed onto mold
?Turret Punch: Successive punching of fixed shapes
?Turning: Cutter applied to rotating material on a lathe
?Water jet: High pressure water with fine abrasives added cuts sheet materials
?Welding: Joins metal surfaces
?Wire EDM: Charged wire erodes material in an oil bath
?Wire forming: Wire formed into special shapes
