Custom 6061 Aluminum Manifold for the Semiconductor Industry

Licari Manufacturing serves a wide range of advanced manufacturing customers. This manifold is used for gas distribution in the semiconductor industry. It is constructed of 6061 aluminum and is 8" in diameter and 5" long. Two types of machining, CNC milling and CNC turning, were used to produce the manifold. SURFCAM was used to program the machinery using drawings provided by the customer. A journeyman machinist was responsible for the machining processes which required us to hold dimensional tolerances to ±0.003" with an interior surface finish of 16 RA or better. As a full service machine shop, all fixturing and tooling is developed and fabricated in-house to provide consistently high quality custom machined parts.

The finished manifold was inspected using a CMM to ensure all dimensions were within specified tolerances. We maintain an array of calibrated inspection equipment to measure dimensions, depths, and surface finishes. Equipment and gauges are regularly calibrated according to manufacturer and industry standards. A total of 20 manifolds were machined for this project with a turnaround time of 2 weeks. We provide very fast standard lead times and offer rush services and stocking programs as needed.
