CNC milling is a subtractive manufacturing process that uses rotating tools to remove material from the source material. Compared with low-volume manufacturing injection molding, CNC machines can produce products at a faster speed and reduce upfront costs because the tool costs of low-volume manufacturing are lower. In CNC milling, once the CAD file is converted to a CNC program and the machine is ready for production, production begins. Are you curious about CNC milling in the low-volume manufacturing method? Next, let us take a look at What is CNC milling in the low volume manufacturing method？
The following is a list of contents:
According to the complexity of low volume manufacturing parts
According to the complexity of the parts, the low-volume manufacturing CNC milling machine can produce products or parts within a few hours. Large CNC models can produce parts up to 2000 x 800 x 1000 mm (78 inches x 32 inches x 40 inches). CNC tools can achieve high repeatability, high-end models have metal parts within 0.13 mm (+/- .005 inches) and plastic parts within +/- 0.25 mm (+/- .010 inches) (ie, CNC machines A dimensional tolerance of +/- 0.13 mm (0.005 inches) can be achieved).
CNC preparation time is much shorter than low volume manufacturing injection molding
CNC preparation time is much shorter than low volume manufacturing injection molding, but it may still take several hours to several days. Sometimes, low-volume manufacturing parts require special tools, which are ordered by the low-volume manufacturing machine shop before production begins. With the development of more advanced CNC milling machines, only very skilled machinists can operate them-visualize and design the machining process, select the correct low volume manufacturing tools and sequence for the job, and perform adjustments and perform tests based on Programming.
CNC milling has faster turnover and lower cost than injection molding can accommodate large sizes and has high repeatability and high precision. It promotes low-volume manufacturing. Low volume manufacturing provides companies with the opportunity to quickly enter emerging markets, allowing many companies to achieve a qualitative leap.
