Machining Parts Stainless Steel Aluminum Parts

CNC turning is a subtractive manufacturing process that involves the rotation of a metal rod

while a cutting tool is applied against the material to remove excess material and shape the final

parts.

Our CNC lathes are equipped with live tooling capabilities, allowing for the machining of flat

features and holes directly into the workpiece.

Additionally, we offer threading services for both the outside diameter (OD) and inside diameter

(ID) of the parts.

After the turning process, the parts can be left with visible tool marks for a functional finish or bead

blasted for a smoother appearance.

Once the production run is complete, all parts undergo a thorough inspection, are then carefully

packaged, and promptly shipped to their destination.

Product Details

We work with a diverse range of materials, including carbon alloys, aluminum, brass,

stainless steel, high nickel alloys, and engineered plastics.

If you are uncertain about the best material for your specific application, our expertise can guide

you in selecting the most suitable option, even if it happens to be a material not mentioned here.

CNC Machining Tolerances

Typical machining tolerances fall within the range of ± 0.005 inches or 0.13 millimeters.

Tolerances represent the allowable variation for a specific dimension.

For instance, if a CNC machining tool has a tolerance of ± 0.01 millimeters, it means that the tool

can deviate by 0.01 millimeters in each cut.

When provided with a drawing, Our CNC machining service can achieve CNC parts with tolerances

as tight as ± 0.0002 inches.

In the absence of a drawing, all CNC parts are manufactured according to our ISO 2768 medium

standard. We can also work to even tighter tolerances, such as ± 0.025 millimeters or ± 0.001

inches, when an engineering drawing specifies critical features.

Applications of CNC Turning

CNC machining finds extensive applications across various industries.

It is prevalent in aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics, robotics, agriculture,

and numerous sectors that heavily rely on metal components.

Furthermore, CNC machining is widely employed in the medical device industry,

household products manufacturing, energy sector, oil and gas industry, and various

consumer-oriented applications.

It stands as one of the most prevalent and versatile manufacturing processes globally.

How to Reduce CNC Machining Costs?

Reducing CNC machining costs necessitates a comprehensive approach that optimizes various

aspects of the manufacturing process.

By implementing the following cost-saving strategies, manufacturers can achieve greater

efficiency and maximize their cost-optimization efforts:

1. Supplier Collaboration:
Collaborating with CNC machine suppliers is valuable for exploring cost-saving opportunities.

Engaging with suppliers to negotiate favorable pricing, especially for bulk material purchasing,

can result in cost reductions.

Manufacturers can also optimize supply chain logistics, improve delivery times, and reduce

transportation costs by establishing solid supplier relationships.

Collaborative efforts can lead to developing innovative solutions and cost-saving recommendations

based on suppliers' expertise and CNC machining industry knowledge.

2. Design Optimization:
Designing parts for manufacturability is crucial for cost reduction in CNC machining.

Streamlining the machining process and minimizing material waste can be achieved by simplifying

the geometry, minimizing tight tolerances, and reducing the number of operations.

Collaborating with design engineers to optimize part designs for CNC machining can significantly

reduce production time, tooling requirements, and overall costs.

3. Material Selection and Standardization:
Careful material selection and standardization can significantly save costs.

Manufacturers can reduce material expenses by choosing cost-effective materials that meet the

required specifications.

Standardizing material options across product lines simplifies procurement, minimizes waste,

and enhances machining efficiency. Material availability, price, and compatibility with machining

processes should be considered during material selection.

4. Process Optimization:
Optimizing the machining process is essential for cost reduction.

This involves evaluating and refining various aspects of production, including toolpath optimization,

minimizing setup time, improving machine utilization, and implementing lean manufacturing

principles.

Increasing productivity and lowering costs can be achieved by optimizing toolpaths to reduce

unnecessary movements and minimizing setup time through efficient work holding and tool

change strategies.

Implementing lean manufacturing techniques such as 5S, value stream mapping, and continuous

improvement initiatives further contributes to cost optimization.

5. Automation and Robotics:
Integrating automation and robotics into CNC machining processes can significantly enhance

efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve productivity.

Automated systems can handle repetitive tasks, allowing skilled operators to focus on more

complex operations.

Robotics facilitate precise and consistent machining, resulting in higher-quality parts and reduced

scrap. By embracing automation and robotics, manufacturers can save costs through increased

throughput, reduced labor expenses, and improved process control.

By implementing these cost-saving strategies, manufacturers can effectively reduce CNC machining

expenses and enhance their competitive edge in the market.

A comprehensive approach that combines design optimization, material selection, process

optimization, automation, and supplier collaboration can result in significant cost savings

while maintaining high-quality production.
