Parts Manufacturing
CNC machining represents the predominant subtractive manufacturing technology in
contemporary industrial processes. It stands as an exceptionally flexible and robust method
for the production of tailor-made metal and plastic parts.
Leveraging CAD models, CNC machines execute precise material removal from solid blocks
through a diverse range of cutting tools.
In essence, CNC machining yields components characterized by precise tolerances and
remarkable material properties. Its applicability spans from individual projects to low-to-medium
volume production runs (up to 1,000 parts), primarily due to its exceptional repeatability.
Nevertheless, it is important to acknowledge that CNC machining entails specific design constraints,
partly attributed to its subtractive nature, setting it apart from 3D printing.

Post-processing and surface finishes for CNC machining
CNC-machined parts as they emerge from the machine often exhibit visible tool marks,
a feature that may not align with your specific part requirements.
Fortunately, there exists a multitude of post-processing techniques aimed at enhancing the
surface appearance and elevating attributes such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance,
and chemical resistance.
Methods like anodizing, bead blasting, and powder coating present viable options for refining
the final presentation of your custom parts, allowing you to achieve the desired surface
quality and performance characteristics.
| Surface Finishes |
| Name | Applicable to | Machining marks |
| As machined | Metals, Plastics | Visible, light surface scratches |
| Smooth machining |
| Fine machining | Metals | Slightly visible |
| Polishing | Metals | Removed on primary surfaces |
| Bead blasting | Metals | Removed for non-cosmetic, removed on primary surfaces for cosmetic |
| Brushing | Metals |
| Anodizing Type II | Aluminum |
| Anodizing Type III | Aluminum | Visible under anodizing |
| Black oxide | Copper, Stainless steel, Alloy steel, Tool steel, Mild steel | Visible |
| Powder coating | Metals | Removed |
| Brushed + electropolishing | Stainless steel | Removed on Primary surfaces |
