What product types or fields can precision machining be applied to?
If you are new to the world of precision machining and computer numerical control (CNC) manufacturing, then you may be wondering how this amazing technology can help you improve your current part or product manufacturing process.
There are several different types of machining tools that use CNC systems, including drills, lathes, and milling cutters. CNC machines use computer-generated 3-D models to create items that exactly match the models. CNC machines differ from other technologies, such as 3D printers, in that they work by cutting material from existing wood, metal or plastic, rather than 'printing' with liquefied plastic. This results in a stronger, more stable finished product.
Today, precision machining techniques are used in a wide range of industries to create components and products, from wood decorative wall hangings to precision aircraft parts. Here are some of the most interesting types of CNC machined products:
Surfboard: The surfboard consists of a carved wooden interior that includes a series of air-filled wooden units that keep the surfboard afloat. Precision machining makes it easier to produce these wooden units, makes surfboard production more cost-effective, and avoids the use of Styrofoam that comes with some surfboards.
Aerospace Components: At the Louvre in the United States, there are many aerospace tools and components manufactured using precision machining methods. Because the manufacture of aircraft and rocket parts requires the highest precision, CNC machining processes allow companies to mass-produce the parts necessary for their accurate renderings.
Publishing Equipment: Publishing houses still rely on words engraved on solid metal to print books, magazines and newspapers. Precision machining equipment can make it easier for publishers to increase production of metal letter tiles and improve other aspects of the publishing process, improving the bottom line in a struggling and ever-changing industry.
Guitar bodies: Guitar bodies and other mass-produced instruments are usually produced with the help of CNC machines. Due to the versatility of CNC machines, it is possible to manufacture a range of guitars based on a single model. CNC produced guitars are more consistent and uniform in quality.
Cooking utensils: Spoons, spatulas, mixing bowls, etc. are all CNC machined. Precision machining can create everything from wooden spoons to large metal bowls. CNC machining processes are suitable for products and components made of virtually any material, including plastic, wood, aluminum, stainless steel, and more.
