This part is a housing of steering rack and normally produced by die-casting. Why do you utilize the CNC machining process?

[@rapidenterprises5681]

The Formula SAE Team want's us to machine the part with 6061 Aluminum.

Obviously for a one-off like this, CNC is faster and cheaper then die casting.

Looks good, but unfortunately for me that's a bad thing as the team I'm on is gonna possibly compete against it.

Good Luck, Thank you for subscribing

I don’t get it honestly… why not machine the 3 pieces and connect by weld with tubes. 5 axis doesn’t mean higher precision necessarily… deflection over that cutter length for instance. this is a flashy part, that takes money from a limited budget… 6061 is weldable as far as I know!? pls change my mind. I’d love insight!

[@rapidenterprises5681]

There's no right or wrong in the process, We just use the method we are good at, Yes you can tig weld 6061 aluminum.
