This adds an extra tool and tool change operation to the CNC machining program, adding time to the overall project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No action required, unless you want to change the fillets to be a specific size.

Drills that are greater than 12 times the diameter of the bit are hard to source and may break during drilling. If you increase the diameter of the hole, a larger drill can be used, which would mitigate the issue.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the hole is a blind hole and is too deep to be drilled, you can try to decrease the depth of the hole or increase the diameter of the hole. The ratio of depth to diameter needs to be less than 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading anchor-distance\">Depth of cut (milling)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1612\" height=\"868\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image9-1.png\" alt=\"on the left, a part with a deep pocket labeled as greater than 10D and the tool is bending. on the left a part with a pocket that is less than 10D and the tool is straight\" class=\"wp-image-8108 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image9-1.png 1612w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image9-1-768x414.png 768w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image9-1-1600x862.png 1600w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image9-1-1536x827.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1612px) 100vw, 1612px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the depth of a feature in your part is greater than 10x the diameter of the end mill used, we will not be able to machine your part. End mills that are greater than 10 times the diameter of the bit are hard to source and may break during use. This may occur if you have thin but deep features such as slots or grooves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can, decrease the depth of the feature. Otherwise, increase the feature diameter or the corner radius (fillet), which will allow a larger diameter tool to be used. This in turn allows a longer tool.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading anchor-distance\">Non-standard thread (produced at risk)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The fit\/function of this thread size cannot be guaranteed because we cannot source a proper thread checker. We can still move forward with manufacturing your part, but it will be a High Risk Product.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to guarantee the fit and function of your threads, you can select a standard thread size.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading anchor-distance\">Thin walls may not hold up to machining<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1388\" height=\"868\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image11-1.png\" alt=\"one part on the left is thin and bending in contact with a tool, on the right the part is thick and not bending in contact with the tool\" class=\"wp-image-8110 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image11-1.png 1388w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image11-1-768x480.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1388px) 100vw, 1388px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong> <\/strong>Our minimum required thickness is 0.25mm for metals and 0.50mm for plastics.

Add to the wall thickness or consider changing the manufacturing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading anchor-distance\">Not optimized for CNC machining<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your part is not optimized for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/cnc-machining-service\">CNC machining<\/a>. Significant changes must be made for it to be manufactured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Chat with a Fictiv representative to learn more about why your part failed for CNC machining.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading anchor-distance\">Part will be reworked from McMaster part number<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your part will be manufactured from a specific McMaster part number. This may be stock material that is purchased from McMaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t have to do anything, unless you have issues with the part number listed.

Some areas may have chamfers that are not accessible with standard tooling. In this case, these areas will be deburred manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t want these features to be deburred manually, you can remove the chamfers from your CAD model.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading anchor-distance\">Thin stock not available for chosen material<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the part thickness, this part must be made from stock thickness material. However, the thinnest material available is too thick. If we do machine with your desired thickness, the part will end up warped or out of spec.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Reconfigure your part with an alternate material (suggested in your DFM feedback). You can also chat with a Fictiv rep for more recommendations. You can also change the thickness of your design to be the minimum thickness available for your required material.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading anchor-distance\">Non-matching drawing and CAD model<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"868\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image10-1.png\" alt=\"a graphic showing two parts, one says CAD and the other says 2D with a red x\" class=\"wp-image-8109 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image10-1.png 1280w, https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/image10-1-768x521.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The CAD model does not match the 2D drawing you provided.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Action Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your CAD model is correct and you don\u2019t need a 2D drawing, you can simply remove the 2D drawing.
