What Does CNC Turning Involve?
CNC turning delivers precision machining through the use of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) turning machines. The process involves using computer-controlled tools to remove material from a workpiece to create cylindrical or rotational parts with exceptional accuracy.
CNC turning machines can work with a variety of materials, including metals such as steel, aluminium, and brass, as well as plastics and composites. The choice of material depends on the specific requirements of the client’s project.
Thanks to its accuracy, consistency, and high level of customisation, CNC turning is ideal for producing parts for a wide range of industries, such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and more.
How Our CNC Turning Process Works
Before machining begins, we work closely with clients to fully understand their design and specifications. Once we have this information, we create a CNC programme that guides the machine in cutting and shaping the chosen materials to meet the desired specifications.
Setting up the CNC turning machine involves securely fastening the workpiece in the chuck and loading the appropriate cutting tools into the tool turret. The machine is then calibrated to ensure precise alignment and positioning.
Once the setup is complete, the CNC turning machine begins its operation according to the programmed instructions. The machine rotates the workpiece while the cutting tools remove material from the outer surface, shaping it into the desired form with features such as holes, threads, and grooves.
This process allows for a high degree of customisation, enabling clients to produce parts with specific shapes, sizes, and features perfectly suited to their needs.
