The process known as CNC machining, or Computer Numerical Control machining, entails the
automatic removal of material from raw stock based on instructions generated by a computer.
This method is applicable to a wide range of materials, spanning from expanded polyurethane
foam to nickel superalloys. CNC machining finds typical applications in fabricating components,
crafting ornamental furniture, and manufacturing turbine blades.
The cost of CNC machining is intricately tied to considerations such as the required precision,
surface quality, quantity, material type, and the overall complexity of the part.
Product Details
CNC machining machines exhibit the capability to cut a diverse range of materials, including
aluminum, bronze, copper, ceramics, plywood, various steel alloys, stone, wood, zinc,
and other engineering materials. This versatility makes CNC machining an ideal choice for
generating prototypes in product development. It enables precise and rapid adjustments until
achieving the desired end product.
