WHAT IS CNC MACHINING?

WHAT IS CNC MACHINING?

Computer Numerical Control or CNC machining is a manufacturing process that uses computerized, programmable machines to produce OEM and custom-designed parts. Operators program these high-precision machines to remove material through drilling, boring, and milling. The finished parts can be made of various metals and are machined according to design specifications that often have extremely high tolerances – some as small as +/- .0005 inches (0.0127mm), about twice the width of a human hair! 

CNC Machining - Precise Machine Company

CNC machines can be equipped with a variety of tooling. When programmed, the machine’s computer controls the tooling, instructing it where and when to move, removing material from the piece as it goes. Some machines can be programmed to change tooling in the middle of a job, making for an extremely efficient process.

Precise Machine Company specializes in jig boring, milling, and turning to produce a wide range of parts with high tolerances for any industry. Jobs can be mid-processed or a complete production from beginning to end. Custom tooling and fixturing can be made for different bar stocks, billets, and castings.
