What Is Custom CNC Machining & When Do You Need It?

Almost every industry requires tailored CNC machining.

Custom CNC machining entails creating parts that do not exist anywhere else. It can take any form of CNC machining including CNC turning, CNC milling, and EDM among others, that a company may have the capacity to provide. A custom part may be as simple as a gear. But, you may need the gear in particular nonstandard size, material, or is a new invention that suppliers don't have yet, calling for tailored production of the part.

Almost all industries require tailored CNC machining. If a company is searching for accurate CNC parts that sometimes are complex to produce using traditional methods, CNC machining comes in handy. Some of the industries that require custom CNC machining include:

Unlike manual work, CNC machines can work continuously without plunging quality. Besides flexibility, safety and absence of the need to take a break from working, here are other advantages of choosing this manufacturing process.

CNC machining allows the production of demanding applications. Even with small diameters and unique features on a part, the high precision ability of CNC production ensures you get precisely what you need. Moreover, the production machine consistently allows the production of similar parts over and over until the last piece you order.

CNC machining involves removing blocks of raw materials until you achieve the desired shape. A computer controls the production machine ensuring the speed is maintained at a set limit. Considering the machine is adjusted to follow specific procedures, it is hard to encounter an error that might lead to repeating the process. Moreover, a company providing CNC machining consists of profound CNC engineers with experience in producing various parts, translating to a quick turnaround.

When a product is uniquely designed, it is hard to find it in multiple stores. If you find it in any store, then it is expensive. By choosing custom machining, you eliminate the possibility of spending more than you should and still get a high quality product.

Custom CNC machining can be achieved through various processes depending on what a client needs. A manufacturer can choose one type of machine over another depending on the size, accuracy, and material needed for the production. Here are some types of custom machining we do.

This process involves turning whereby the part been created is spun while a cutting tool is curving the part. This type of custom machining is common when creating round parts.

As you have seen above, CNC machines are capable of producing precise parts. However, for a company to remain competitive, it invests in the highest-end equipment and technology to produce ultra-high precision items. CNC machining centers is a type of machining needed when a client is looking for advanced, consistent, and efficient parts. This 5-axis machine moves in five different directions to create high-level accurate parts.

While 3D printing is the common form of acquiring plastic parts, it might not apply when you need non-printable parts. Prototype plastic machining involves designing accurate concepts and producing precise parts from raw plastic material while considering factors such as pre-heat and tool paths. This type of machining is ideal when creating small parts that can't be achieved when using any other method of production. For example, an optical part with a small radius of 0.05mm is only achievable through prototype plastic machining.

Metal machining refers to the accuracy of producing a part as per the client's design. The end product should meet a customer's requirements. Several factors including room temperature play part in ensuring the metal part is produced as the client wants.

When you choose custom machining, you get high quality products whether you want the items in a rare material or otherwise. There shouldn't be any limitation subjected to the quality of custom parts that your industry needs. Below are several materials we assure you to produce in high quality whether you need one item or many, at an affordable price.
