Precision CNC Machining Services
Precision CNC Machining Services
At Creatingtec, we utilize advanced equipment to provide several CNC machining services. Such as CNC turning, CNC milling, wire EDM, finishing, surface grinding and other processes. Our dedicated team of engineers can produce CNC milling and turning parts from a variety of metal and plastic materials. They can do this with the help of Creatingtec’s advanced 3, 4 and 5 axis CNC machining centers. Also, our CNC machines have the capability of complementing the 3D printing services provided, thus making us the ideal center for your creative designs.
The process of CNC machining technology is subtractive. It involves the removal of raw material from a workpiece using several precision cutting tools. Thus making precision parts or products. At Creatingtec, we use CAM software and U/G to assist in controlling the equipment based on your 3D design specifications. Also, our engineers can program the equipment to enhance cutting time, surface finish and final tolerance to achieve your needs. Other products made apart from parts and prototypes include mold tools. These are important for pressure die casting or plastic injection services.
CNC Turned Parts
Our CNC lathes perform quality turning at high speeds for both metals and plastics. The turning process can make complex external geometries and internal bores. It is also available for prototype making through our low volume production services.
CNC Milled Parts
We apply CNC milling in achieving a machined surface finish. It is also good for making complex 3D shapes. Also, we make use of both domestic and imported 3, 4 and 5 axis CNC machining centers. These machines use the advanced Delcam software to make quick tool changes.
EDM/ Wire EDM and Surface Grinding
EDM has the capability of cutting pockets, holes and other shapes into hardened steel. It can also leave a surface texture to the internal cavities of mold tools. The method starts by immersing a sacrificial electrode in an electrolyte bath. Then, we generate a high powered electric spark to erode away very hard materials. We have to continuously feed this wire through two spools. Thus we are able to cut through hardened steel tools accurately and fast. This is usually difficult with other methods. We often make square pockets using this method.
At Creatingtec, we also provide surface grinding services. This involves placing a workpiece on a stationary plate. Then a computer-guided grinding surface wheel abrades a precise depth of the workpiece.
Advantages of CNC Machining
CNC machining has the ability to meet a wide range of product development needs. Below is a highlight of precision machining benefits.
