Our Services
CNC Milling UK
CNC Milling is a highly versatile machining process that utilises computer-controlled machines to create complex parts from a range of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. The workpiece is secured on a machine bed while a rotating cutting tool removes material to create the desired shape.
This process is capable of moving along multiple axes (x, y, and z) and can be programmed to achieve precise features such as slots, holes, pockets, and contours. The use of advanced CNC milling machines allows for the creation of highly detailed and intricate parts with exceptional precision, all in a streamlined process that reduces lead times and maximises efficiency.
The Types Of CNC Milling Machines
At Sotek Engineering, we use a wide range of CNC milling machines for different project needs:
Horizontal Milling Machines: Equipped with a horizontal spindle, these machines move along the x and z axes, making them suitable for large or heavy components.
Vertical Milling Machines: These machines feature a vertical spindle that moves along the x and y axes, ideal for producing a variety of shapes and components.
5-Axis Milling Machines: These machines offer the ability to move along five axes, allowing the production of highly complex and detailed parts.
Gantry Milling Machines: These machines use a fixed bridge to move the cutting tool along multiple axes, perfect for large or intricate parts.





The Applications Of CNC Milling
CNC Milling is indispensable in industries requiring high-precision components, such as automotive, aerospace, medical, and defence.
These industries rely on the precision, speed, and versatility of CNC milling machines to create parts that meet stringent specifications.
The Benefits Of CNC Milling
CNC Milling offers a wide range of benefits, including:
Reduced Defects: Less reliance on manual processes reduces human error.
Improved Efficiency: Faster production speeds lead to reduced lead times.
Energy Efficiency: Optimised machine usage reduces energy consumption.
High Precision: Consistent accuracy and tight tolerances are achieved.
Lower Costs: The automation process results in reduced labour costs.
Enhanced Safety: Automated systems improve operator safety.
Minimal Waste: Efficient material usage reduces waste.

CNC Turning
CNC Turning is a process used to create cylindrical or conical parts by rotating the workpiece against a cutting tool. The lathe machine moves the cutting tool along the surface of the material to shape it into the desired form.
CNC Turning is ideal for producing parts with complex contours and is widely used across industries like automotive, aerospace, and medical.
The Features Of CNC Turning Machines
Bar Feeders: These devices automatically feed raw material into the machine, improving efficiency and eliminating the need for manual loading.
Driven Tooling: Driven tooling enables additional machining capabilities, such as drilling, tapping, and milling, expanding the range of features that can be added to the part.



The Applications Of CNC Turning
CNC Turning is widely used to manufacture parts for the automotive, aerospace, medical, and defence industries.
The efficiency, flexibility, and precision of CNC turning machines make them ideal for producing both simple and complex parts quickly and accurately.
The Benefits Of CNC Turning
The advantages of CNC Turning include:
Versatility: Capable of handling various materials, including metals, plastics, and composites.
Cost-Effective: Reduced waste and shorter cycle times lower overall production costs.
Improved Safety: Reduced operator involvement leads to a safer working environment.
Increased Production Speed: Reduced lead times due to faster operations.
Enhanced Precision: Tight tolerances ensure a high-quality finish.
