Milling Services
Milling is our specialty, from one off custom parts for the racing industry to high production large volume work we have it covered. Utilizing the ten mills from our versatile line up we have the right machine tool for the job. If speed, accuracy, and a medium sized working envelope is what you need then one of our six VF2's are perfect to get your parts done. Need larger parts made that require substantial material removal? Our VF4, and VF5 allow us to be versatile and stay one notch above our competitors. Along with our array of machine tools we also stay on the cutting edge of tooling. Our line up of toolholders, and cutting edge tooling is vast. We have the tools for your next project, and the experience using them to make parts in the most efficient way bringing our runtimes down and keeping our costs low so your project stays within your budget.

FAQs
3 axis machining involves a workpiece in a fixed position while the cutting tool operates along the X, Y, Z plane to cut away material. 3-axis machining is most suitable for parts that do require a lot of depth and detailing
4-axis machining adds movement of the cutting tool and allowing rotation around the X axis. As a result, there are 4 axes X, Y, Z and A rotating around the X axis. The majority of 4 axis CNC machine tools allow the workpiece to rotate, which is called b-axis, so the machine can act as both milling machine and lathe.
5-Axis machining is a process where you take a large block and remove the excess. On a 5-axis machining-center, the cutting tool moves across the X, Y and Z linear axes as well as rotates on the A and B axes to approach the workpiece from any direction.
CNC milling (Computer Numerical Control Milling) is a machining process which utilizes computerized controls and rotating cutting tools to remove material from the workpiece to produce a specific product or part. The process is suitable for machining materials like metal, plastic, glass, and wood, and producing a variety of custom-designed parts and products.
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) turning is a machining process where computer-controlled machining tools operate a turning metal lathe removing material on part to reach a desired shape.
CNC machining costs depend heavily on the time needed, complexity, quantity, and size of the part. Complex large parts require longer machining time which increases costs. However, the higher quantities of parts can reduce the set-up costs and unit price.
Coordinate measuring machines (CMM) probes are transducers that convert physical measurements into electrical signals utilizing various measuring systems within the probe structure. CMM probes are a large category of instruments that use different technologies for direct and comparative measurements.
A bar puller also allows a CNC lathe or turning center to be automated which frees the operator to work on other projects. Unlike a bar feeder that pushes a bar through the lathe’s spindle, a puller pulls the bar from the spindle.
