Aerospace CNC Machining Under ISO 9001 Controls
ISO 9001-certified machining with drawing-reviewed tolerances, material traceability, and first-article inspection options for aerospace projects.
Reviewed by PiPrecision Quality Team on June 17, 2026
Overview
Current Quality Scope and Project Controls
PiPrecision currently holds ISO 9001 certification. Aerospace work is accepted only after reviewing the drawing, end use, customer approvals, documentation, special processes, and applicable legal or export requirements.
- Material specification, heat or lot traceability, mill certificates, and approved substitutions.
- Drawing and revision control, first-article scope, inspection plan, calibrated equipment, and record retention.
- Nonconformance authorization, corrective action, configuration changes, and customer-specific requirements.
- Heat treatment, NDT, welding, coating, and other special processes controlled through the agreed supplier and certificate requirements.
- AS9102, AWS D17.1, flight hardware, turbine-part, and exotic-alloy statements apply only when explicitly reviewed and accepted for the project.
Certification Development Roadmap
AS9100D and NADCAP remain targeted standards; PiPrecision does not currently hold those certifications. Their presence in the roadmap must not be interpreted as certified status.
Customers requiring an AS9100D- or NADCAP-certified source should identify that requirement before RFQ. PiPrecision will confirm whether the project can be supported directly, through an approved external process source, or not at all.

The capabilities below are drawing-reviewed, project-specific possibilities—not blanket aerospace qualification. AWS D17.1, AS9102-format FAI, flight hardware, turbine parts, exotic alloys, and special processes are accepted only when the quotation identifies the qualified process source, inspection scope, records, and customer approvals.
Complex geometries and contoured surfaces including impellers, blisks, and turbine components.
Positioning accuracy ±0.003mm, repeatability ±0.002mm
Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5) expertise, Inconel 718, 625 high-temp alloys, Aluminum 7075-T6, 6061-T6.
Heat lot tracking, material certs provided
Surface finishes to Ra 0.4 μm (16 μin), critical edge breaks and radii, passivation for corrosion resistance.
CMM inspection on all critical dimensions
Aircraft-grade aluminum panels, formed brackets and shrouds, welded assemblies.
Forming to ±0.5°, weld per AWS D17.1
Rapid prototyping for design validation, first article inspection (FAI) per AS9102, production scaling.
2-week lead time standard, expedite available
Published dimensional and performance capabilities are indicative and subject to drawing review.
