Turning Stainless Steel CNC Parts CNC Custom Machining Part Lathe CNC Services

CNC turning is a manufacturing process that creates parts by securing a raw material blank

on a rotating chuck and then precisely removing material using stationary cutting tools.

This technology is particularly well-suited for crafting parts that possess symmetry along

their central axis. Typically, turned parts can be produced more quickly and cost-effectively

compared to milled parts.

Product Details

CNC machining is applied to a wide range of materials, each having its unique optimal machining

parameters (speeds and feeds) to ensure effective material removal.

The most frequently used materials include:

1. Metal
Metal is the most prevalent material in CNC machining. CNC machines can cut virtually any type

of metal, from easily machinable brass to challenging nickel superalloys like Inconel.

Metal machining spans various applications, including injection molds, shafts, and gears.

2. Plastic
Although most plastic parts are made through injection molding, CNC machining is employed for

specific plastic components. Common materials include ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene),

nylon, and polycarbonate.

Plastic machining applications encompass valve bodies, bushings, and prototypes for evaluating

part functionality before investing in costly molding tools.

3. Wood
CNC routers are frequently used for wood cutting and are generally more cost-effective than

standard metal-cutting CNC machines.

Wood CNC machining is primarily employed for decorative purposes.

Typical applications encompass furniture, window frames, and ornamental panels.

4. Foam
Polyurethane foam, whether closed or open-cell, finds extensive use in CNC machining.

Foam blocks can be shaped into secure packaging for high-value products using a CNC router.

One example is the foam employed in toolboxes to securely hold tools during transport.

5. Composites
CNC machines are commonly employed in the processing of composite parts.

Composite materials include a wide range, from aramid to fiberglass to carbon fiber.

These materials are highly abrasive to cutting tools. In aerospace and marine industries,

composite components are machined to add fastener holes and for general trimming post-molding.

CNC Machining Tolerances

Tolerances are not standardized across all processes and materials. The final tolerances on your

part depend on various factors, such as part size, design complexity, the number and size of

features, materials used, surface finish, and the manufacturing process employed.

Once your order is confirmed, we conduct a Design for Manufacturing review to identify areas

that may need modification for better manufacturability.

FAQ's

1. Can make design drawings for me?

While we do not offer standalone product design services, we do provide Design for

Manufacturing (DFM) reviews for all approved orders.

This means we collaborate with our clients to optimize their 2D and 3D drawings, enhancing

manufacturability, resolving design issues, and reducing production expenses.

Learn more about preparing your CAD drawings for manufacturing.

2. How long does a quotation take?

Typically, we aim to respond to your Request for Quotation (RFQ) within one days after receiving

it. If there is any unexpected delay in providing the quote, we will promptly notify you of the

revised timeline.

3. How do I know my design will be kept confidential?

Rest assured, we are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of your designs.

We are more than willing to sign and uphold any non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement

you require.

Furthermore, our factory strictly enforces a "no photographs" policy for any customer's product

without explicit permission.

Our reputation is built on years of experience, working with countless unique designs, and

safeguarding proprietary information from third-party disclosure.

Your design's confidentiality is our priority.

4. How much import duty will I need to pay for my goods?

The amount of import duty you'll need to pay depends on several factors, and there's no

one-size-fits-all answer. However, here are some key points to consider:

1. Country-specific Regulations: Import duties can vary significantly from one country to another.

Each country has its own customs regulations and tariff schedules.

2. Type of Goods: The import duty you pay is often determined by the type of goods you're

importing.

Different products are classified under specific Harmonized System (HS) codes, which help customs

authorities categorize and assess import duties.

3. Trade Agreements: Some countries have trade agreements in place that may reduce or

eliminate import duties on certain goods.

For example, the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement (CHAFTA) introduced duty-free import

provisions for specific products into Australia.

4. Value of Goods: In many cases, import duties are calculated based on the declared value

of the goods. Customs authorities may assess duties as a percentage of the goods' declared value.

To determine the exact import duty for your goods, it's advisable to consult with customs authorities

or seek guidance from import/export professionals who are familiar with the regulations in your

specific region.

Import duty rates can change over time, so staying informed about the latest customs policies is

essential for accurate cost assessment.
