CNC Processing Capabilities
CNC Milling Service
CNC milling is the most classic subtractive process in CNC machining. The tool used in milling is moved into the workpiece at a certain speed and angle to remove material. The movement of the tool is controlled by computer instructions and then sent to the machining center to run the program. The milling process is suitable for mold roughing, core forming, or simple parts rapid prototyping, so CNC milling can achieve extremely high processing accuracy with the support of precision machining centers.
-All part dimensional tolerances are strict to +/- 0.001 inches.
-Custom milling parts processing for rapid prototyping design and production.
CNC Turning Services
Turning is a more efficient process than CNC milling. Since CNC turning involves rotating the workpiece in a chuck, it is often used to create rod-shaped, spherical, or all-symmetrical cylindrical parts for subtractive machining, and the tooling used with a CNC lathe is mounted on a turret. Ensure consistent dimensions and smooth surfaces on components.
-All part dimensions are held to a tight tolerance of +/- 0.0005 inches.
-Custom-turned parts for prototyping and production
Precision CNC Services
Precision CNC machining is the process of creating products with precise product dimensional accuracy (commonly known as tolerance) through high-precision machine tool processing. Machinists can reduce the time of transferring parts to processing machines due to processing procedures by using multiple processing methods of one of the processing processes, allowing them to complete all processing procedures on only one machine, and the parts can fully meet the accuracy requirements of dimensional tolerances after molding and inspection. Precision CNC machining is suitable for high-precision parts molding in the aerospace, automotive, or medical industries, and requires dual cooperation of CAD drawings and CAM programs during machining.
-All parts have a strict dimensional tolerance accuracy of +/- 0.0002 inches.
-Used to increase the injection molding speed of molds.
Three-Axis CNC Machining Service
Three-axis CNC machining is a widely adopted technique in the manufacturing industry, involving the movement of the tool along three primary axes—X, Y, and Z—while the workpiece stays fixed. This method excels in producing simple geometric shapes and is favored for its cost-effectiveness, making it a go-to solution for smaller workshops.
-While three-axis machining is limited to processing one surface at a time and is less adept at handling intricate shapes, it is efficient and provides high precision for basic machining tasks.
-Commonly used in automotive, aerospace, medical, and electronics industries due to its versatility in handling straightforward projects.
Five-Axis CNC service
As the most advanced CNC machining technology, the production of parts with complex geometries is completed by a five-axis CNC. Based on the three-axis motion machining of the tool, the two-axis machining of the table tilt or rotation is added to form a five-axis CNC, which improves production efficiency by minimizing the number of machine tools, thereby providing higher machining accuracy and precision. The increase in the number of machine tool axes also gives the five-axis CNC better machining capabilities than similar products. Five-axis machining is suitable for complex parts machining in the aerospace industry, high-precision parts machining in the medical industry, and also provides stability for special parts in the energy industry.
-All parts have a strict tolerance accuracy of +/- 0.0005 inches.
-Used to improve the molding accuracy/surface finish of complex parts.
Wire-Cutting EDM Service
Wire Cutting EDM is a method of high-precision machining using electrical energy and thermal energy and is particularly suitable for processing complex metal workpieces that are difficult to process using traditional cutting processes. Wire Cutting EDM uses CNC technology to control the movement of the electrode wire along a predetermined trajectory to achieve precision cutting and is widely used in precision parts processing.
- High machining accuracy, surface roughness can reach Rα 1.25~2.5um, suitable for high-precision parts processing.
- Can process high-hardness, complex-shaped metal workpieces, such as cemented carbide, hardened steel, etc.
- Widely used in mold manufacturing, small-batch complex parts processing, and trial product production.
