Different Machining Processes For CNC Metal Parts
- Turning: This is a form of CNC metal machining that involves the use of lathes and cutting tools to remove unwanted metal material from rotating parts. CNC turning is ideal for creating cylindrical pieces.
- Milling: Milling involves the use of multi-point rotary tools to remove material from a workpiece. The features of milling metal processes include pockets, slots, flat surfaces, complex contours, and chamfers.
- Drilling: Drilling creates a round hole in the metal workpiece. A drill press or tapping machine is designed for drilling, but a milling machine can also be used to perform this process. The boring process involves enlarging existing cast or drilled holes; The reaming is used to enlarge a previously drilled hole to a very precise diameter.
- EDM: EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) is used to fulfill the removal of material from the surface of the workpiece by electrical discharge erosive processes. It’s widely used in aluminum machining as an auxiliary machining process since some complex metal parts can be achieved only with the help of EDM.
- Wire EDM: It uses a moving metal wire as the tool electrode, and passes a pulse current between the wire and the workpiece, using the corrosion effect of the pulse discharge to cut the CNC metal parts
