CNC Machining
DESCRIPTION
Durable Rapid Prototypes and Cost-Effective Production.
Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining is a traditional manufacturing process often referred to as “subtractive”, due to its nature of cutting away unwanted material from a solid block of raw material or pre-existing parts with a sharp tool to achieve a desired geometry.
BENEFITS
CNC machining encompasses milling, turning and grinding, and delivers high accuracy with very tight tolerances, sharp detail and excellent surface finish.
APPLICATIONS
CNC machines are extensively used in industries where material removal is required. The machines remove excess material from a block to create complex parts. A good example of this are the automotive industries where gears, shafts and other complex parts are carved from raw material. All processes, such as milling, grinding, turning, boring, reaming, etc, can be manipulated and carried out by these computer controlled machines using specific tools for each task.
