WHAT THE APPLICATION DEMANDS
Control the features that control performance.
Each project is reviewed against its own geometry and risk. These are common engineering priorities—not universal tolerance claims.
Concentric interfaces
Motor seats, bores and circular datums are planned around assembly-critical alignment.
Surface protection
Alloy, anodizing and cosmetic requirements are aligned before production and inspection.
DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURING
A useful quote identifies risk—not only price.
For drone & uav structures components, the manufacturability review connects the 3D model to the drawing: datum structure, critical fits, wall sections, tool access, material condition, finishing and the measurement method.
- Confirm the released revision and units
- Separate functional requirements from cosmetic zones
- Identify assembly-critical bores, faces and threads
- Agree inspection evidence before production
COMMON COMPONENTS
Structural parts made from your controlled design.
WEKO supplies machined metal components only. Electronics, bearings, complete assemblies and product design remain with the customer or approved system supplier.

Review this partPROTOTYPE TO REPEAT PRODUCTION
Five stages, one controlled requirement.
Each stage answers a different manufacturing question before more time and material are committed.
RFQ & drawing review
Align revision, material, quantity, critical features and commercial requirements.
Prototype
Test manufacturability and functional interfaces using production-relevant material.
Engineering validation
Review fit, assembly, finish and inspection evidence; capture approved changes.
Production validation
Confirm fixtures, machining sequence, process checks and packaging on a controlled batch.
Repeat production
Run the released revision with agreed controls, documentation and change discipline.

MATERIAL & PROCESS MATCH
Choose the grade around exposure, fit and finish.
Final alloy, condition, certification and finish remain controlled by the released drawing and agreed quotation.
General-purpose structural aluminum
Aluminum 6061
A practical machinable alloy for motor housings, end covers, brackets and equipment structures where low mass, corrosion resistance and stable production matter.
Open material guide
Higher-strength lightweight aluminum
Aluminum 7075
A higher-strength aluminum option for weight-sensitive robot, drone, reducer and motion-system interfaces when the released design requires more mechanical performance than a general-purpose alloy.
Open material guide
General corrosion-resistant stainless steel
Stainless Steel 304
A widely used stainless grade for shafts, sleeves, end caps, clean structural interfaces and equipment hardware where general corrosion resistance and a durable metallic finish are useful.
Open material guide
Higher-corrosion-resistance stainless steel
Stainless Steel 316
A stainless grade often considered for demanding corrosion, cleaning or outdoor exposure around motion equipment, subject to the actual medium, temperature, geometry and released specification.

ENGINEERING FAQ
Answers before you send the drawing.
Does WEKO export complete drones or drone motors?+
No. WEKO supplies CNC-machined metal structural components only. Finished drones, finished motors, controlled power modules, bearings, magnetic cores, PCBs and complete assemblies are excluded.
How do you approach thin-wall drone parts?+
We review stock condition, wall geometry, machining sequence, workholding and distortion risk before confirming capability. Critical requirements must be shown on the drawing.
Can WEKO machine both drone prototypes and repeat batches?+
Yes. Prototype and repeat-production projects can be reviewed, with process and inspection planning adjusted to quantity and part risk.
What should a drone-parts RFQ contain?+
Include 3D CAD, a controlled drawing, alloy and temper, finish, quantity, critical interfaces, inspection expectations and export-related information needed for scope review.
