Brake housing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This component is made from <strong>strong metals<\/strong>, such as carbon steel, and houses the hand-braking systems for railcars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Wheels and bogie components<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A railway bogie is the four or-six wheeled truck that supports railway vehicles. The design of bogies has continually developed; railway bogies of today are a <strong>complex construction<\/strong> of intricate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/capabilities\/cnc-turning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CNC turned<\/a> components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.

Meeting tight tolerances<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CNC machining achieves the <strong>tight tolerances<\/strong> for components demanded by the rail sector. At M-CNC, we have gained <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/news\/m-cnc-have-gained-joscar-and-risqs-registered-status\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RISQS verification<\/a> \u2013 an incredibly important compliance standard for manufacturers to the rail industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having <a href=\"https:\/\/www.risqs.org\/\">RISQS<\/a> verification shows that we as an organisation deliver reliably, ensure supply chain resilience, and fully comply with all risk assessments and rail industry regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. CAD\/CAM integration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/capabilities\/cad-cam-programming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CAD\/CAM programming<\/a> to ensure every component we machine is made to unparalleled levels of <strong>accuracy<\/strong>. We produce 3D design models of each component we make, which can be tested and edited at every stage of development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/news\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-cad-cam-programming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">advantage of CAD\/CAM programming<\/a> is the integration of CAD\/CAM software, which makes <strong>streamlined, efficient workflows<\/strong>. Collaboration on component designs is quick and simple, with everyone able to see design changes in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.&nbsp;Fast turnaround and reduced cost<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/capabilities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CNC engineering capabilities<\/a> and robust supply chain enable us to produce parts of both superior precision and high volume \u2013 without compromising on quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CNC engineering also significantly <strong>reduces the cost<\/strong> of production, with high automation enabling large scale production volumes, and the accuracy of computer-aided machining creating less material waste in the manufacturing process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Quality control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">M-CNC offer full material traceability on every part we manufacture. Our stringent quality control and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/capabilities\/cmm-measurement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CMM measuring<\/a> processes ensure our parts are accurate down to the last micron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside being RISQS and JOSCAR verified, we have completed our <strong>AS9100 Rev D accreditation<\/strong> with BSI \u2013 with an impressive 0 NCRs (Non Conformity Reports). This demonstrates that our QMS (Quality Management Systems) are based on recognised, international principles, and make us the supplier of choice to some of the most prestigious <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/sectors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sectors<\/a> \u2013 including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/sectors\/rail\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rail<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"block_978320c9f373babc67bb8c9cc7eae6b4\" class=\"content-full-width wpblock cta-block \" style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/www.m-cnc.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/cta-cover.jpg);\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"content\"><div class=\"one-column\"><div class=\"cta\"><div class=\"cta-left\"><h3>We are trusted suppliers to the rail industry with decades of <strong>CNC engineering experience<\/strong>.<\/h3>\n<\/div><div class=\"cta-right\"><p class=\"call\"><a href=\"tel:+441278684138\">+44 (0)1278 684138<\/a><\/p><p><a class=\"button\" href=\"\/contact\/\">Send us a message<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CNC precision engineering is used to the meet the high levels of strength, precision, and quality control the rail industry demands.
