CNC Prototyping

CNC Milling Capability

Our CNC machining capabilities enable us to produce the finest, highly accurate parts, full-functioning engineering prototypes, piece parts and injection molds. Fast turnaround and high accuracy on CNC prototypes can be achieved with a wide variety of materials. Using various materials during the concept stage of your prototype will allow your design team to closely simulate the final product appearance, but retain the freedom to make changes. Our highly trained CNC machinists have the experience to help point out any problem areas for future part production.


CNC Turning Capability

Our CNC turning capabilities include live tooling which allows us to turn & mill at the same time so features like axial and radial holes, flats, grooves, and slots can be achieved. Contact our team to learn more about our CNC machining capabilities.


CNC Machining Solutions

Milling

CNC milling is a specific form of computer numerical controlled (CNC) machining. Milling itself is a machining process similar to both drilling and cutting, and able to achieve many of the operations performed by cutting and drilling machines. Like drilling, milling uses a rotating cylindrical cutting tool.

Turning

CNC Turning is a manufacturing process in which bars of material are held in a chuck and rotated while a tool is fed to the piece to remove material to create the desired shape. CNC lathes or turning centers have tooling mounted on a turret which is computer-controlled.

EDM

Electrical discharge machining (EDM), also known as spark machining, spark eroding, burning, die sinking, wire burning or wire erosion, is a manufacturing process whereby a desired shape is obtained by using electrical discharges (sparks).
