GreatLight CNC Machining Center – Precision 5‑Axis CNC Machining For RC Walking Dog Toy
ISO 9001:2015 certified, tolerance of 0.001 mm, rapid prototyping in 3–5 days, custom metal & plastic parts
Introduction
The GreatLight Charging Intelligent Remote Control Toy – RC Walking Dog is a high‑end interactive robot that combines 2.4 GHz wireless control, 360° rotating head, interchangeable dog bodies, and a sophisticated battery‑charging system. While the finished toy is a marvel of electronics and design, its physical components—body shells, chassis brackets, wheel housings, and mounting plates—require industrial‑grade precision to meet performance, durability, and safety requirements.
GreatLight CNC Machining Center specializes in transforming 3‑D CAD models of such parts into flawless, production‑ready components. With 3‑, 4‑, and 5‑axis machining capabilities, advanced tool‑path planning, and a rigorous quality‑control system, we deliver parts that match or exceed the tolerances of the original manufacturer, Shantou Jiahua Toys Co., Ltd., while offering cost‑effective, rapid‑turn solutions.
