Stainless Steel CNC Machined Part Metal Machining CNC Machining Service Machined Stainless Steel CNC Machined Part
CNC machining operates through subtractive processes, wherein the feedstock is machined to its
final form by the removal of material. This involves drilling holes, boring lots and pathways, and
shaping metal stock into new material with varying tapers, diameters, and shapes.
In subtractive manufacturing, the achievement of shapes relies on the removal of material,
a distinctive feature when compared to additive manufacturing methods that involve the addition,
layering, and deformation of materials to achieve a specified shape.
It also contrasts with injection molding, where material is injected in a different state of matter
using a mold and formed to a predetermined shape.
Product Details
CNC machining machines possess the versatility to cut through an extensive array of materials,
encompassing aluminum, bronze, copper, ceramics, plywood, diverse steel types, stone, wood,
zinc, and various engineering materials.
This broad range of capabilities positions CNC machining as an optimal solution for prototype
creation in product development. It facilitates the ability to make accurate and swift adjustments
until achieving satisfaction with the final product.

Typical Applications of CNC Turning
CNC turning machines excel in precision craftsmanship, fabricating a wide spectrum of parts with
diverse complexities. Among these are shafts and axles, pivotal components in industries such as
automotive and aerospace.
The precision extends to the production of bushings and bearings, crucial for reducing friction and
ensuring smooth rotational movement in mechanical assemblies.
CNC turning further facilitates the creation of connectors, fittings, and fasteners like screws and
nuts, serving applications in plumbing, hydraulic systems, and across various industries.
The technology is also applied in the manufacturing of valves and valve components, contributing
to fluid control systems. Additionally, CNC turning is instrumental in crafting tooling components,
including inserts, toolholders, and bodies, enhancing efficiency and accuracy in machining
operations.
In the automotive sector, CNC turning is harnessed for producing engine components, pulleys,
brackets, and specialized parts.

FAQ's
1. What size of fillets are added when no specific fillet is specified by the 3D model
or drawing?
When no specific fillet radius is outlined in the 3D model or drawing, the machinist will incorporate
fillet radii at their discretion to optimize for easy machining. In instances where a particular fillet
radius is needed, explicit specification is encouraged. As a rule of thumb, consider internal vertical
edge radii exceeding 1/3 of the depth, while internal horizontal edges may either remain sharp or
be introduced with a radius ranging from 0.5mm to 1mm.
