CNC Milling Service
What is CNC Milling ?
CNC milling is a manufacturing process that uses a cutting tool mounted on a rotating spindle to selectively remove material from a block of raw substrate. The workpiece is rigidly mounted to a table, and this table moves or rotates on different planes so the tool can work at many angles. Sophisticated CNC milling machines can have 5 or more axes of independent motion to make more complex shapes or to avoid having to move the workpiece to a separate machine.
How does CNC Milling work?
Compared with CNC machining centers, in addition to the lack of automatic tool changer and tool magazine, CNC milling machines are similar to CNC machining centers in other aspects, and can also drill, ream, countersink bore and tapping, etc., but it is mainly used for milling of the workpiece.CNC mill is controlled with G-Code created through CAM software.The CNC machining G code tells the Cartesian position coordinates of the machining tool of the CNC machine tool, and controls the feed speed and spindle speed of the tool, as well as the tool changer, coolant and other functions.
Types of parts that can be processed by CNC milling machines
Surface Milling
Surface milling, also known as plain milling, means machining surface is parallel and perpendicular to the horizontal plane.At present, the vast majority of parts processed on CNC milling machines are surface milling parts.They can be processed only by the two-coordinate linkage of a 3 axes CNC milling machine.
Angle Milling
The processing surface and the horizontal plane changes continuously are called Angel milling.The angle milling surface could not be expaned into the flat surface, so it is best to use 3 aexs, 4 axes and 5 axes CNC milling machines for processing.
Form Milling
Form milling, also knows as curved surface milling, means the machining surface is the irregular surface, like curved surface. The machined surface cannot be expanded into a plane; the other is that the machined surface and the milling cutter are always in point contact. Such parts generally use a 3-axis CNC milling machine.

CNC Milling Applications
CNC Machining plays a vital role in the manufacture of aerospace components and standardizes this process. Aerospace equipment uses a variety of hard metals and special materials to manufacture parts with functions ranging from decorative to critical. CNC machining can better complete difficult-to-machine materials, such as Inconel, a nickel-chromium high-temperature alloy.
Due to their size and complexity, all agricultural parts used on agricultural equipment must be carefully machined to high technical specifications, including tight tolerances, ultra-high accuracy specifications and the best durable materials to ensure the longevity of your machines and equipment. That's why custom CNC machining services for agricultural equipment are so important in the field of agricultural parts manufacturing, and getting used to CNC agricultural parts can also make your equipment more competitive in the marketplace.
Good flexibility of CNC lathe machining. High adjustment and high machining precision have long been noticed by automobile manufacturers and started to enter the field of automobile manufacturing parts production in the 1960s. Into the nineties of the twentieth century, along with the intensification of market competition; multi-species production to meet the diversified needs of the market to the maximum, until to meet the needs of every CNC lathe processing users, become the goal of the automotive manufacturing manufacturers to pursue, CNC machine tools as the main flexible manufacturing unit, is used in large numbers.
As an important basic framework for electronic products, structural components are installed to provide fixation, support, decoration, and protection for other functional components. Depending on the application environment, they also have the functions of connectability, shock resistance, heat dissipation, anti-corrosion, anti-interference, and anti-static. According to the materials used, structural parts can be divided into metal structural parts and plastic structural parts. In the early stage of product development, CNC machining has a very important significance for the application of metal or plastic structural parts. Both metal or plastic structural parts can be quickly completed by means of CNC machining for functional hand board or appearance hand board, thus promoting the whole product development forward.
The energy industry uses CNC machining to mass-produce components for various applications. Nuclear power plants require very fine parts, and the natural gas and oil industries also rely on CNC machining to produce parts that keep the fuel flowing. Hydropower, solar and wind energy suppliers also use CNC machining and turning to manufacture system components that ensure continuous power generation.
Since the first CNC machine tool was introduced in the 1950s, CNC machine tools and CNC technology has experienced more than half a century of development, and now CNC machining has become popular in various manufacturing fields, which not only improves the quality and efficiency of product processing, shortens the production cycle, improves labor conditions, but also has a profound impact on the product structure and production methods of manufacturing enterprises. CNC machining, as a highly efficient and precise digital cutting technology, has become the main means of mechanical processing of complex structural parts of medical devices
Modern CNC machines can be traced back to the early manual machine tools 200 years ago, which produced uniform weapon parts for the military in batches. This tradition continues as the defense industry uses CNC machining and turning techniques to manufacture prototypes and mass-produced parts. Many of these machined parts have migrated to other industries, and innovations originally developed for military applications now benefit aerospace, electronics, medical, and other industries.

2.What is the difference between CNC Milling and CNC Turning?
1) Different working principles. 2) Different programming methods. Determined by the working mode, the programming of the CNC tuning only needs to input two coordinates:xy2 axis, the milling machine needs to input 3 coordinates, xyz3 axis. 3) Different working scope. A lathe can be used for turning axles, grooves, end faces, hollows, and threads; a milling machine can mill surface, angle and form.
3.Different types of CNC milling machines
CNC mills are often defined by their number of axes. More axes mean they can move their tool and/or workpiece in a greater number of ways, giving greater cutting flexibility and the ability to make more complex parts in a shorter time.
3-axis: Standard CNC mills have 3 axes, allowing the spindle (and attached cutting tool) to travel along the X, Y and Z axes. If the cutting tool cannot reach an area of the part, the part must be removed and manually rotated.
4-axis: Some CNC mills incorporate an extra degree of movement by rotating on a vertical axis. This enables greater flexibility and the ability to create more complex parts.
5-axis: The most advanced type of widely used CNC mill is the 5-axis mill, which incorporates two extra degrees of movement, often by adding rotation to both the worktable and spindle. Parts usually don’t require multiple setups, since the mill can manipulate them into different positions.
4.What is the biggest size you could handle for CNC Milling ?
The biggest length is 1200mm
The biggest width is 800mm
The biggest height is 600mm
