Industrial machining consultancy · Toronto / Chicago
RODIAK helps aerospace manufacturers select the right CNC machines, integrate 5-axis platforms, and master difficult alloys — Inconel, 7075 aluminum, and magnesium.
01 / Services
Buy the right spindle the first time.
Vendor-neutral evaluation of machining centers against your part families, tolerances, and throughput targets. We build the spec, run the RFQ, and witness the acceptance cuts.
From crate to first article.
Commissioning support for trunnion and head-head 5-axis platforms: kinematic calibration, post-processor validation, CAM strategy, fixturing, and probing routines your operators can own.
Hard metals. Repeatable results.
Process development for heat-resistant superalloys and lightweight structural alloys — tooling, parameters, coolant strategy, and inspection plans aligned with AS9100 expectations.
02 / Materials
Nickel superalloy for hot-section components.
Indicative index · free-machining steel = 100
Constant-engagement toolpaths, high-pressure through-spindle coolant, and ceramic roughing where rigidity allows — paired with a tool-life model so changes are planned, not reactive.
Case focus · HRSA
“In Inconel, the tool is the most expensive consumable on the floor. We engineer the process around predictable tool life — not hope.”
RODIAK applications engineering
03 / Engagement
Plant walk, part-family review, and capacity baseline — usually within two weeks.
Machine, tooling, and process specifications with a quantified business case.
On-site commissioning, CAM & post validation, and prove-out on production parts.
Training, documentation, and periodic audits so gains hold after we leave.
