FAQ's
1. A quick guide to CNC machining parameters
Most machining parameters are established by the machine operator during the generation
of G-code.
Build Size of CNC Machines:
CNC machines offer a notably large build area, especially when compared to 3D printers.
CNC milling systems can handle parts with dimensions up to 2,000 x 800 x 100 mm
(78” x 32” x 40”).
CNC turning systems can machine parts with a diameter of up to Ø 500 mm (Ø 20’’).
Accuracy and Tolerances:
CNC machining enables the production of parts with high accuracy and tight tolerances.
Tolerances achievable with CNC machines can be less than half the diameter of an average human
hair, reaching ± 0.025 mm or .001’’.
If tolerance is not specified in the technical drawing, the operator typically machines the part with
an accuracy of 0.125 mm (.005’’).
Key Takeaways:
CNC machines excel in both build size and precision, making them suitable for a wide range of
applications.Operators have the flexibility to set machining parameters based on the specific
requirements of the project.
Understanding the build size and achievable tolerances is crucial for designing parts that meet
precision and accuracy standards.
2. How much do CNC machining materials cost?
CNC machining offers a plethora of material choices, leading to varying costs across different options.
The price range for materials is broad, influenced by factors such as physical properties and specific
characteristics of each material.
For metal parts, Aluminum 6061 stands out as the most economical choice. If cost is a primary
consideration, ABS emerges as the most budget-friendly option.
Additionally, the ease of machining significantly impacts costs, with materials like stainless steel posing
a higher machining difficulty compared to aluminum, thereby contributing to an increased overall cost.
3. What's the general surface texture of CNC milled and turned parts?
Typically, machined milled parts exhibit a surface roughness of around 3.2μm (or 1.6μm for newer
machines). On the other hand, turned parts can achieve a finer surface with a roughness of 0.8μm.
This indicates that the machining speed does not necessarily need adjustment, highlighting the
precision attainable in turning processes.
