CNC machining, or Computer Numerical Control machining, constitutes a subtractive manufacturing
method employed for the creation of parts through the removal of material from a workpiece or
workpiece stock.
The machine's movement is controlled by preprogrammed software and codes, guiding the
precision of material removal. This versatile process encompasses various machinery, including
turning mills, lathes, grinders, and plasma-cutting machines.
Product Details
We work with a diverse range of materials, including carbon alloys, aluminum, brass,
stainless steel, high nickel alloys, and engineered plastics.
If you are uncertain about the best material for your specific application, our expertise can guide
you in selecting the most suitable option, even if it happens to be a material not mentioned here.

Post-processing and surface finishes for CNC machining
CNC-machined parts as they emerge from the machine often exhibit visible tool marks,
a feature that may not align with your specific part requirements.
Fortunately, there exists a multitude of post-processing techniques aimed at enhancing the
surface appearance and elevating attributes such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance,
and chemical resistance.
Methods like anodizing, bead blasting, and powder coating present viable options for refining
the final presentation of your custom parts, allowing you to achieve the desired surface
quality and performance characteristics.
