What CNC Engineering Companies Offer
CNC Milling
CNC Milling is a highly adaptable machining method that employs computer-controlled equipment to produce intricate components from a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. The workpiece is fixed securely to the machine bed while a rotating cutting tool removes material to achieve the desired geometry.
This process operates across multiple axes (x, y, and z) and can be programmed to create precise features such as slots, holes, recesses, and contours. Our advanced CNC milling machines facilitate the production of highly detailed and complex parts with excellent precision, all within an efficient workflow that shortens lead times and boosts productivity.
The Types Of CNC Milling Machines
At Sotek Engineering, we utilise a broad selection of CNC milling machines tailored to various project demands:
Horizontal Milling Machines: Featuring a horizontal spindle, these machines move along the x and z axes, making them suitable for machining large or heavy parts.
Vertical Milling Machines: These machines have a vertical spindle that operates along the x and y axes, ideal for crafting a diverse range of shapes and components.
5-Axis Milling Machines: Offering movement along five axes, these machines allow for the creation of highly complex and precise components.
Gantry Milling Machines: Using a fixed bridge, these machines move the cutting tool across several axes, making them excellent for handling large or intricately detailed parts.





The Applications Of CNC Milling
CNC Milling plays a crucial role in industries that require high-accuracy components, such as the automotive, aerospace, medical, and defence sectors.
These fields depend on the accuracy, speed, and adaptability of CNC milling machines to manufacture parts that meet exacting technical specifications.
The Benefits Of CNC Milling
CNC Milling brings numerous advantages, such as:
- Reduced Defects: Lower reliance on manual processes results in fewer errors.
- Enhanced Safety: Reduced manual involvement enhances operator safety.
- Improved Efficiency: Faster production speeds reduce overall lead times.
- Minimal Waste: Material is used more efficiently, lowering waste levels.
- Energy Efficiency: Optimised machine usage helps conserve energy.
- High Precision: Maintains tight tolerances and consistent accuracy.
- Lower Costs: Automation significantly reduces labour expenses.
More Of Our CNC Engineering Services
CNC Turning
CNC Turning is a manufacturing process used to create cylindrical or conical components by rotating the workpiece against a stationary cutting tool. The lathe moves the tool along the surface of the material, shaping it into the desired profile.
This process is particularly effective for parts with intricate contours and is commonly used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and medical.
The Features Of CNC Turning Machines
Bar Feeders: Automatically feed raw material into the machine, enhancing productivity and removing the need for manual loading.
Driven Tooling: Allows for additional machining operations like drilling, tapping, and milling, offering more flexibility in part design.



The Applications Of CNC Turning
CNC Turning is extensively used to produce components for the automotive, aerospace, medical, and defence industries.
Its precision, adaptability, and speed make it ideal for manufacturing both simple and complex parts with consistent accuracy and reliability.
The Benefits Of CNC Turning
CNC Turning offers several key benefits:
- Versatility: Can handle a broad range of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites.
- Cost-Effective: Reduced waste and quicker cycles result in lower production costs.
- Increased Production Speed: Operations are quicker, cutting down lead times.
- Enhanced Precision: Delivers tight tolerances and a high-quality surface finish.
- Improved Safety: Less manual intervention means a safer workplace.
