Aluminum Slit Production Housing

Alpine Precision provided the custom CNC machining for this aluminum housing which was used by a customer in the analytical instrumentation industry. This precision component is designed to control light input for a spectrometer.

The part was machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and required mill profiling, pocketing, mill slots, drilling, counterboring and tapping as well as a black anodized finish. Measuring 4.125" long, 3" wide and .800" high, it also met tolerances of +.0002"/-.0000", flatness of .001" and perpendicularity of .003".
