Applications of CNC Milling
Rapid Tooling
One of the significant advantages of CNC machining for rapid tooling, such as fixtures or molds, is its compatibility with almost any material.
Rapid Prototyping
The extensive selection of available materials, coupled with low CNC machining costs per unit and rapid production speeds, positions CNC as an exceptional choice for rapid prototyping.
End-Use Production
With high-quality surface treatments, a diverse array of materials, and precise tolerances, CNC emerges as a highly advantageous technique for producing end-use parts.
Advantages of CNC Milling
CNC Milling Tolerances & Standards
| Description | General Tolerance or Standard |
|---|---|
Maximum Part Size | Milled parts can be as large as 140” x 98” x 31” (3600 x 2500 x 800mm). |
Distance Dimensions | For features of size (Length, width, height, diameter) and location (position, concentricity, symmetry) +/- 0.005”. |
Orientation and Form Dimensions | 0-12" +/- 0.005", Angularity 1/2 degree. |
Precision Tolerances | Unionfab can manufacture and inspect to tight tolerances as per your drawing specifications, including GD&T callouts. |
Minimum Feature Size | 0.005” (0.127mm), dependent on part geometry and chosen material. |
Threads and Tapped Holes | Unionfab can accommodate any standard thread size. We also offer the service of machining custom threads. Consequently, these requests will undergo a manual quote review process. |
Surface Finish | The standard finish is “as machined”, with a surface finish of 125 Ra or better. Additional finishing options can be specified when obtaining a quote. |
Edge Condition | Sharp edges are broken and deburred by default. You can specify critical edges that must be left sharp on a print. |
Overview: What is CNC Milling?
CNC mills are automated cutting machines that utilize a rotating spindle-head equipped with various cutting tools to remove unwanted material. There are several types of CNC milling machines, each with its own distinct maximum part size. CNC Milling is primarily employed for cutting harder metals, but it can also machine workpiece materials ranging from plastic and aluminum to stainless steel and titanium.
CNC mills excel at profile cutting harder materials. A CNC mill is controlled using G-Code created through a CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) system. G-code commands enable machines to identify where to move, how fast to do so, how deep to cut, and how to maneuver the workpiece to create a specific component. The complexity of G-Code increases with the number of axes a milling machine possesses.
Other Benefits of CNC Mill Machining Processes
CNC milling machines can achieve higher accuracy and repeatability. Besides prototyping, CNC milling machines are well-suited for both low and high-volume production runs. Once the prototype is approved, manufacturers can effortlessly replicate the design with consistent accuracy and quality. CNC milling machines are versatile in processing various materials, ranging from basic aluminum and plastics to more exotic materials like titanium.
