About Project

This case study describes how FacFox delivered a custom CNC-milled brass threaded tailpiece for a wash fountain supplier.

The client needed a custom brass threaded tailpiece for wash fountains, which could connect the drain spud of a wash fountain to the drain pipe. A threaded tailpiece has threads on both ends to allow easy installation and removal. The client had a specific design and offered the CAD files to us.

FacFox used CNC milling to create the tailpiece from a brass block with high precision and accuracy. FacFox finished the production within five days and shipped them to the client. The client was satisfied with the quality and speed of our CNC milling service.

Solution

• Step 1: The client’s design and specifications of the pipe fitting were received and verified for accuracy. The CAD files were converted into a CNC-compatible format with the software.
• Step 2: A suitable type of CNC milling machine was selected based on the shape and size of the manifold. The appropriate cutting tools and parameters were chosen to optimize the machining efficiency and quality.
• Step 3: The brass block was prepared and secured on the machine table. The G-codes were entered into the machine controller to instruct the movements of the cutting tools. The aluminum block was milled into the desired shape and size of the pipe fitting.
• Step 4: The workpiece was inspected during and after the milling process for dimensional accuracy and surface finish. The dimensions and tolerances were measured with a caliper and a micrometer. The surface finish was checked with a roughness tester. It met all the requirements of the client.
