Machining Parts

Our CNC mills, also known as CNC milling machines, have the capability to manufacture parts in

nearly any shape, utilizing a wide range of materials. We offer cost-effective milling services for

various materials, from soft metals like aluminum to more robust metals like steel, and even

plastics such as acetal. Whether you need a single part, a batch of prototypes, or a complete

production order, we have the expertise to meet your requirements.

Product Details

CNC machining encompasses a wide variety of materials, each requiring specific machining

parameters for optimal performance. The most common materials include:

1. Metal:
Metal is the predominant material in CNC machining, with the ability to cut various types, from

brass to nickel superalloys like Inconel. Applications range from injection molds to shafts and gears.

2. Plastic:
While injection molding is common for plastic parts, CNC machining is used for specific components

like ABS, nylon, and polycarbonate. Applications include valve bodies, bushings, and injection

molding prototypes.

3. Wood:
CNC routers are frequently employed for wood cutting, especially for decorative purposes like

furniture, window frames, and ornamental panels.

4. Foam:
Polyurethane foam, both closed and open-cell, finds application in CNC machining for creating

secure packaging, such as foam used in toolboxes for tool transportation.

5. Composites:
CNC machines are essential for processing abrasive composite materials like aramid, fiberglass,

and carbon fiber, commonly used in aerospace and marine components.

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.

It's helpful if you can specify which areas in your design have critical tolerances that must be met

and which can be adjusted, if necessary, to optimize production time and cost.

Common Applications of CNC Milling Parts

1. Manufacturing:
CNC machining plays a pivotal role in general manufacturing, producing components with precision

and efficiency for various applications.

2. Medical Devices:
The medical industry leverages CNC machining to manufacture intricate components for medical

devices, ensuring precision and adherence to strict quality standards.

3. Robotics:
CNC machining contributes to the production of components for robotics, providing the precision

required for the functioning of robotic systems.

The adaptability of CNC machining makes it a valuable tool in the hands of machinists, enabling

the creation of diverse products across different industries, each with its unique material and

precision requirements.

Yes, we excel in providing Quick-Turn CNC Machining services. Our focus on fast lead times means

that many parts are available within an impressive 3-4 day timeframe. Additionally, we offer an

expedite option, and our team is committed to working closely with you to fulfill your most pressing

deadlines.

3. Determining CNC Machining Costs

The cost of CNC machining is influenced by factors such as complexity, quantity, and lead time.

For an accurate assessment, the best approach is to submit a 3D CAD model, allowing us to provide

an interactive quote along with design for manufacturability (DFM) feedback.

Notably, our use of proprietary software and automated fixturing processes eliminates upfront

non-recurring engineering (NRE) costs. This streamlined approach makes purchasing quantities as

low as 1 to 200 parts cost-effective. While prices may be comparable to or slightly higher than 3D

printing, CNC machining offers superior material properties and surface finishes.
