3-Axis CNC Milling Services
Our 3-axis CNC milling services offer a wide range of possibilities for producing complex and precise parts. We use advanced software and cutting-edge equipment to engrave any kind of material with exceptional precision.
3-axis milling shop supports creation of custom parts
3-axis milling can often machine non-circular materials and is ideal for machine parts that don’t require faceted details or complex geometric cuts. Standard fabricated parts include square and rectangular shapes or more complex geometries that can be held in a vise or custom fixture.
We understand the machining needs of high-performance precision parts. Through our past precision machined component projects, we have developed in-house processes to determine critical dimensions for all projects and have the ability to successfully mill specialty alloys. Our expertise provides our clients with unparalleled value.
Our Capabilities
We’re here to help you manufacture machined parts efficiently and on time. We understand the importance of getting your product to market before your competitors do. Learn more about our capabilities, Elimold is ready to accelerate your innovation.
Tolerances
Parts manufactured on a 3-axis CNC Mill generally achieve a dimensional tolerance of +/- 0.005”
Tighter tolerances of up to +/- 0.001 can be achieved but may affect the pricing of your parts.
Maximum part sizes for 3-axis milling
There are various types of CNC milling machines each with specific limitations on maximum part size. Machines with 3-axis CNC are cost-effective options for getting started and are suitable for producing parts with simpler geometries.
| Size | Units (mm) | Units (in) |
| Maximum workpiece length X width | 3100 X 2200 | 122 X 86 |
| Maximum workpiece thickness | 240 | 9.4 |

What is 3-Axis Milling?
3-Axis Milling – Milling is the machining process of using rotary cutters to remove material from a piece of metal, wood, foam or plastic, to form the piece into a specific shape. 3-Axis Milling is employed when the cutting requires simultaneous controlled movement of the X, Y and Z axes. Although still used in some milling facilities today, it is the least advanced of the three main axis millings available on commercial markets.
Elimold expertise and advanced technology
Through enhanced internal processes, including in-process production planning and efficient communication, we will identify potential component issues and develop the optimal machining process and production sequence for your components. Additional process requirements include multiple component inspections to ensure product compliance. Our inspection rooms are temperature controlled for enhanced quality control, and all inspection tools are regularly calibrated.
