Advanced CNC Milling Services – Precision & Reliability with JW Machine

CNC milling is a sophisticated precision CNC machining process that involves several steps to produce a quality end product.  JW Machine utilizes advanced vertical machining centers with 2-, 3-, and 4-axis capabilities for projects that require CNC milling. This type of machining center has an automatic tool change function and allows for more temperature stability, durability, and long-term accuracy.

If you have a prototypes to production manufacturing or contract manufacturing project that requires CNC milling, then our next series of articles will help you better understand the various steps involved in the CNC milling process. Let’s get started:

Design and Spec the Prototype

The first step in the CNC milling process is to design and spec your prototype. Not only do you need to determine the size, shape, and dimensions of the final part, but you also need to specify the material, tolerances, threads, and finishing.

Develop CAD Model

Once you have a prototype of your part on paper, it’s time to develop a CAD model. This is either a 2D or 3D scaled rendering of the final part. The machinist will need to be provided with a technical drawing before beginning the CNC milling process.

Our next article will discuss more steps in the CNC milling process.
