How To Determine The Accuracy Of Your CNC Machine Shop The quality of CNC machined parts depends on many factors, including part design, tool selection, tool path programming, machinist skill set, workpiece clamping strategy, etc. Critical path functional components, such as robotic arms for laser surgery or landing gear components of high-performance aircraft, must operate reliably. Reliability requires accuracy, precision, …

Below is some common metal surface finishes: Anodized Metals Machinists use this electrolytic passivation process to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of metals. Machinists anodize metals to increase their resistance to wear and corrosion. It also helps primers and glues adhere more easily to metal surfaces than ordinary metals do. If you anodized a …

Workpiece-tool interaction, when machining aluminum cast alloys results in an abrasive flank wear, influences the shape and the dimensional accuracy as well as the surface integrity of the work piece. Cutting forces in the machining of aluminum alloys are usually low compared to those of ferrous alloys due to their lower mechanical strength, which may generate 70 % lower specific …

Two of the most popular industrial processes for creating metal parts are die casting and CNC machining. Both processes can even be combined for the best possible finish. However, when it comes to choosing one process over the other, there are several important factors to consider. Two of the most popular industrial processes for creating metal parts are die casting …

Lathe machines are machines used for shaping various types of workpieces, but they don’t come one size fits all. There are many types of lathe and which one you need will depend on the material you are shaping and your specific requirements. For those who are looking to clarify the differences of lathe machines, look no further. This guide will …

CNC tools come in nearly as many varieties as products created by the milling process. Understanding the uses of these tools will make it easier to choose the ones you need for your project. Selecting the right tools makes the process of CNC machining more accurate. 1. End mill The end mill is the most widely used tool for vertical …

CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control is an automated control of machining tools such as; drills, lathes, mills, and 3D printers using a computer. It takes digitized data and is controlled, automated and monitored by a computer and CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) program. CNC machines are fully automated, needing only digital files with instructions about cutting trajectories and tooling. It is …

Angular Milling: also written a angle milling, milling flat surfaces which are neither parallel nor perpendicular to the axis of the cutter. Gear Milling: the milling process for creating a gear. Thread Milling: the interpolation of a thread mill around or inside a workpiece to create a desired thread, requires machines capable of moving on the X, Y, and Z …

A countersink is a conical hole cut into a manufactured object, or the cutter used to cut such a hole. A common use is to allow the head of a countersunk bolt, screw or rivet, when placed in the hole, to sit flush with or below the surface of the surrounding material (by comparison, a counterbore makes a flat-bottomed hole …
