Quality focus
Small parts require close attention to burrs, thread fit and batch consistency.
- Diameter checks
- Thread verification
- In-process repeatability control
Material planning
Material selection affects chip control, surface finish and repeatability.
- Brass and stainless steel are common choices
- Titanium may require slower machining
- Coating or finishing should be planned early
Engineering Trade-Offs
Small features need clear inspection criteria
High repeatability benefits from stable drawings
Secondary operations can add cost
