Custom Service CNC Machining 316 Stainless Steel CNC Turning Lathe Part

CNC machining, short for computer numerical control machining, represents a subtractive

manufacturing method that relies on the coordination of computerized controls and machine tools.

This process involves the removal of layers from a solid material block, with programming guiding

the desired cuts in the metal. The corresponding tools and machinery then execute the machining

task in an automated fashion.

Product Details

The turning process predominantly employs metals as its primary materials.

These metals encompass alloy steel, carbon steel, cast iron, stainless steel, aluminum, copper,

magnesium, and zinc.

Nonetheless, this versatile process can also be applied to machine plastic components and work

with an array of other materials, including ceramics, composites, thermoplastics, and thermosets.

CNC Machining Tolerances

Tolerances are not standardized across all processes and materials. The final tolerances on your

part depend on various factors, such as part size, design complexity, the number and size of

features, materials used, surface finish, and the manufacturing process employed.

Once your order is confirmed, we conduct a Design for Manufacturing review to identify areas

that may need modification for better manufacturability.

FAQ's

1. How much do CNC machining materials cost?

The multitude of materials available for CNC machining introduces a range of costs, influenced by

the unique properties and characteristics of each material. In the realm of metal parts, Aluminum

6061 is a standout for its economical pricing.

If cost efficiency is a priority, ABS takes the lead as the most budget-friendly option.

Importantly, the ease of machining is a key factor impacting costs. Stainless steel, known for its

hardness in comparison to aluminum, presents higher machining complexities, contributing to an

overall increase in costs.

2. Can you ensure my designed component dimensions and tolerances are suitable for

production?

Rely on our team of experts to offer valuable "Design for Engineering" (DFM) support, assessing

the suitability of your designed component dimensions and tolerances for production.

We acknowledge the urgency during idea testing and strive to provide rapid turnaround on quotes.

3. Do you offer other services, like finishing, assembly, packaging, and logistical support?

We offer a complete array of services to ensure a smooth and cost-effective production journey from

start to finish. From finishing operations to logistical support, our capabilities include anodizing,

plating, grinding, finishing, assembly, warehousing, packaging, and just-in-time delivery.

Our goal is to provide a comprehensive and hassle-free production process, freeing up your resources

to focus on your business priorities.

4. How can I ensure my design is confidential?

Rest assured about the confidentiality of your design. We are ready to formalize this commitment by

signing a Non-disclosure Agreement (NDA) with our customers. This agreement can be initiated before

the quoting process or when placing an order, providing a clear framework for the protection of your

confidential design information.
