Machining Parts Service
CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing process employed to produce parts by removing
material from a workpiece or stock material.
It utilizes preprogrammed software and codes to control the movement of the machine's
equipment.
CNC machining encompasses various types of machinery, including milling machines, lathes,
grinders, and plasma-cutting machines.
Product Details
The cnc machining 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.

FAQ's
1. Advantages of CNC Machining
CNC machining offers several key advantages:
1. Rapid Prototyping: CNC machining enables fast prototyping, allowing for quick iteration
and testing of designs.
2. Efficient Production: It excels in producing full-scale production parts swiftly, meeting large
volume demands efficiently.
3. Precision and Accuracy: CNC machining delivers exceptional precision and accuracy, ensuring
tight tolerances across parts of all sizes.
4. Flexibility: It provides maximum flexibility in terms of volume, pricing, lead times, and material
and finish options.
Choose CNC machining for versatile, precise, and efficient manufacturing solutions.
2. Standard Machining Tolerances
The standard machining tolerance is ± 0.005 inches or 0.13 millimeters.
Tolerances define the allowable range for a dimension.
For example, if a CNC machining tool has a tolerance of ± 0.01 millimeters, it means that the tool
can deviate by 0.01 millimeters in each cut.
When provided with a drawing, our CNC machining service can achieve tolerances as tight as
± 0.0002 inches.
Without a drawing, all CNC parts adhere to our ISO 2768 medium standard.
We can also machine to even tighter tolerances of ± 0.025 millimeters or ± 0.001 inches when
an engineering drawing specifies critical features.
3. Can you ensure my designed component dimensions and tolerances are suitable
for production?
Our team of seasoned experts offers valuable "Design for Engineering" (DFM) guidance,
ensuring the suitability of your component dimensions and tolerances for production.
We understand the importance of swift responses during the ideation and testing phases,
and our quick quote turnaround is tailored to meet your needs.
