The Complete Guide to CNC Machining for Precision Parts
Everything you need to know about CNC machining for precision industrial components.
What is CNC Machining?
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining is a subtractive manufacturing process that uses computerized controls to operate and manipulate machine tools.
3-Axis Milling
The workpiece remains fixed while the cutting tool moves along X, Y, and Z axes. Ideal for prismatic parts.
5-Axis Milling
Adds rotational movement for complex geometries and angled features.
Material Options
- Aluminum (6061, 7075)
- Stainless Steel (304, 316)
- Titanium
- Engineering Plastics (PEEK, Delrin)
