Professional CNC Prototype Steel Metal Machining Milling CNC Turning Parts
CNC Facing Operation
- Material Selection: Begin by selecting the appropriate material for CNC facing, often involving metals like steel, aluminum, or brass, based on project requirements.
- Tool Selection: Choose a facing tool with the appropriate geometry, cutting edge, and inserts for the specific material and surface finish requirements.
- Workpiece Fixturing: Securely clamp the workpiece onto the CNC lathe's chuck or collet, ensuring it is properly aligned with the lathe's spindle axis.
- CNC Lathe Setup: Configure the CNC lathe by loading the correct CNC program, setting tool offsets, work offsets, spindle speed, and feed rates.
- Facing Process: Activate the CNC lathe to engage the facing tool, which moves along the workpiece's axial direction, removing material from the end face to achieve a flat and parallel surface finish.
