Anodized Rail Housing, Slide Bar and Contoured Link Set
Three parts from one assembly: a black anodized housing with contoured internal pockets, a bright machined slide bar with milled grooves, and a swept link with a fully three-dimensional contour on both faces.
Material
Aluminum 6061-T6
Tolerance
Slide fit ±0.02 mm after anodizing
Process
CNC Milling
What This Part Does And What Matters On It
The function of the part, the features that carry the fit, and the requirements that decided how it was machined and checked.
Three parts from one assembly: a black anodized housing with contoured internal pockets, a bright machined slide bar with milled grooves, and a swept link with a fully three-dimensional contour on both faces. They were machined together so the slide fits the housing after coating, not before.
Anodizing adds thickness, so the slide and its pocket were machined to pre-coating sizes and the fit was checked after the parts came back from the coater. The link's contour is cut from both faces in two setups, and the setups are located from the same dowel holes so the two contours meet correctly.
Tell us which parts of an assembly like this must fit each other after finishing; that decides the order of machining, coating and inspection.

How This Part Was Machined
Housing pockets and slide bar machined to pre-anodizing sizes so the slide fits the housing after coating. The swept link is contoured from both faces in two setups located on the same dowel holes.
How This Part Was Checked
Slide-to-housing fit checked after anodizing; pocket depth and link contour checked from the dowel datum.
Slide fit and pocket width after anodizing
Pocket depth and link contour heights from dowel datum
Every Quote Comes With DFM Notes
Owen reads the drawing before pricing it: tolerances that add cost, features that need a second setup, finishes that change lead time. Send a STEP or PDF with the material and quantity, and the quote reflects what is actually machinable, within 24 hours on business days.
