Computer numerical control (CNC) machining is a specialized manufacturing process that uses computer technology to guide equipment. This makes it possible to automate production processes and increase the throughput of industrial facilities.


Service details

design phase

After the manufacturer has selected the right software and materials for the project, the CNC manufacturer cooperates with the customer. They use computer design and imaging programs to conceptualize the product so that they both understand the manufacturer's wishes and can make any necessary changes. The same program then translates the concepts into code that the CNC machine will understand.


Material loading

Finally, the manufacturer must load the raw materials for the product into the machine. The loading process can be automated or manually performed by a worker. To ensure material safety, most CNC machines have a fixture function. The term "fixture" simply refers to fixing your workpiece or material to a machining table.


Machining

The code then instructs the machine to begin processing the material. In this way, precise and precise parts can be produced, which can meet the corresponding specifications.

Each of these services is controlled by its own CNC program, which has software controlled by computer code. For example, G code is a general-purpose CNC language. However, some manufacturers use bitmaps, graphics interchange formats, or M-codes to control their devices.

Mechanical maintenance

To keep the CNC system accurate, fast and powerful, manufacturers need to perform regular maintenance on their machines.


design

Manufacturers consider many factors when designing parts or products in their CNC shop. These include the material features you need, the number of products you need, the diameter of the products you need, etc. The manufacturer will use these factors to determine the process required to design and create the part, the software that should be used, and the best materials.


CNC machining manufacturers may choose certain materials from many materials, including wood, plastic, ceramics, metals (carbon steel, mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, titanium, etc.), superalloys, and glass.


CNC machining service providers can easily create custom products for you. To learn more, discuss your application with your potential supplier.


Variations and similar services

CNC milling (CNC turning) is the most common type of CNC manufacturing on the market, but companies specializing in precision CNC machining often provide more detailed CNC machining services.

Some of the most common services in these precision CNC machining services include cutting, drilling and grinding. These functions can be CNC programmed into a single unit, or the unit can have multiple machine heads engaged during a specific task.


CNC milling (sometimes called CNC turning) is the CNC precision machining process most commonly used by manufacturers for engraving materials. It is called CNC turning because the machine tool rotates during work. CNC milling machines are well engraved because they can engage lathes (such as cutters and conical tools) on multiple axes simultaneously. Manufacturers can perform CNC turning quickly without sacrificing quality.

CNC cutting involves the use of various tools and processes (such as laser, blade, plasma cutting, waterjet cutting, etc.) to remove material from the workpiece with the help of CNC technology. The goal of CNC cutting is to make the shape or finishing of 2D or 3D parts or products with strict tolerances.


CNC drilling involves using a machine to drill holes or threads of different shapes and sizes under the guidance of computer software. Manufacturers can modify CNC drilling machines to drill a variety of materials. CNC drilling is efficient and effective. Some examples of industries in which manufacturers use CNC drilling include military and defense, entertainment, automotive manufacturing, aerospace, agriculture, pharmaceutical processing, chemical processing, and food and beverage.


CNC grinding is a CNC machining process in which the CNC software controls the belt, disc or wheel. Abrasive elements finish parts and products by removing unnecessary surface materials. In addition to drilling, grinding, milling and cutting, auxiliary services such as finishing, anodizing, heat treatment, grinding, stress relief and polishing can be performed by special CNC equipment.
