Key Processes in Precision Machining
CNC Milling
CNC milling employs rotary cutters to shape a workpiece, offering flexibility and precision for intricate parts. This process is essential for creating custom components with high dimensional accuracy.
CNC Turning
CNC turning focuses on rotating the workpiece while a stationary tool cuts into it, ideal for producing cylindrical components with smooth finishes and precise tolerances.
Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM)
EDM utilizes electrical discharges to remove material, making it perfect for machining hard metals and producing sharp internal corners that conventional tools cannot achieve.
Surface Finishing
Post-machining treatments, including polishing, anodizing, and coating, enhance the durability, aesthetics, and functionality of precision-machined parts.
