CNC Milling Material Considerations and Alternatives

Material Considerations

The CNC milling process is best suited as a secondary machining process to provide finishing features to a custom-designed part, but can also be used to produce custom designs and specialty parts from start to finish. CNC milling technology allows the process to machine parts of a wide range of materials, including:

• Metals (including alloy, exotic, heavy duty, etc.)
• Plastics (include thermosets and thermoplastics)
• Elastomers
• Ceramics
• Composites
• Glass

As with all machining processes, when selecting a material for a milling application, several factors must be considered, such as the properties of the material (i.e., hardness, tensile and shear strength, and chemical and temperature resistance) and the cost-effectiveness of machining the material. These criteria dictate whether the material is suitable for the milling process and the budgetary constraints of the milling application, respectively. The chosen material determines the type(s) of the machine tool(s) employed and its/their design(s), and the optimal machine settings, including cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut.

Alternatives

CNC milling is a mechanical machining process suitable for machining a wide range of materials and producing a variety of custom-designed parts. While the process may demonstrate advantages over other machining processes, it may not be appropriate for every manufacturing application, and other processes may prove more suitable and cost-effective.

Some of the other more conventional mechanical machining processes available include drilling and turning. Drilling, like milling, typically employs multi-point tools (i.e., drill bits), while turning employs single-point tools. However, while in turning the workpiece can be moved and rotated similar to that of some milling applications, in drilling the workpiece is stationary throughout the drilling operation.

Some of the non-conventional mechanical machining processes (i.e., do not employ machine tools but still employ mechanical material removal processes) include ultrasonic machining, waterjet cutting, and abrasive jet machining. Non-conventional, non-mechanical machining processes—i.e., chemical, electrical, and thermal machining processes—provide additional alternative methods of removing material from a workpiece which do not employ machine tools or mechanical material removal processes, and include chemical milling, electrochemical deburring, laser cutting, and plasma arc cutting. These non-conventional machining methods support the production of more complex, demanding, and specialized parts not typically possible through conventional machining processes.

FAQ

Q: Will my drawings be safe in your company?
A: Of course, without your permission, we will not release your design to others.

Q:What about quality control?
A.: Self-inspection in every process by the production operator. Defective rate be controlled within 1% even lower.

Q: Is it customized available?
A: Yes, according to the detailed drawing you provided.

Q: How long can I get a quotation?
A: As long as we receive your e-mail, we will response ASAP.

Q: If I wish to send an electronic drawing to you, what types of files can you accept?
A: We accept many formats, such as DXF, DWG and STP, CAD, STEP, etc.
