Custom Metal CNC Milling Spare Parts Precision CNC Brass Machining Parts
CNC machining, an acronym for computer numerical control machining, represents a widely
embraced manufacturing process that employs automated, high-speed cutting tools to craft
designs from metal or plastic stock.
The spectrum of CNC machines encompasses 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis milling machines,
lathes, and routers, each showcasing distinctive methods for cutting CNC parts.
Proficient machinists adeptly operate CNC machines, creating tool path programs based on the
specific geometry of the final machined parts. The requisite part geometry information is derived
from CAD (computer-aided design) models.
CNC machines excel in the precise cutting of diverse metal alloys and rigid plastics, ensuring a
high degree of accuracy and repeatability. This versatility renders custom machined parts
suitable for application in a multitude of industries, including aerospace, medical, robotics,
electronics, and industrial sectors.
Product Details
Brass is a metal alloy known for its low friction properties, exceptional electrical conductivity,
and distinctive golden appearance.
This material offers good machinability, making it suitable for a wide range of applications
that demand low friction and high electrical conductivity.

FAQ's
1. Do you provide Quick-Turn CNC Machining services?
Absolutely! We specialize in quick-turn parts with rapid lead times, and many of our parts can
be delivered within 3-4 days. We also offer an expedite option, and our dedicated team
collaborates closely with you to ensure that we meet your most urgent deadlines.
2. Machining Dimensions Overview:
Our CNC machining services cover a range of capabilities, including CNC milling
(3-axis, 3+2-axis, and 5-axis) and turning. For 3/3+2-axis CNC milling, we can machine parts
with dimensions up to 2000 x 1500 x 200 mm (78.7 x 59.0 x 7.8 in.).
The maximum part size for 5-axis milling is 650 x 650 x 300 mm (25.5 x 25.5 x 11.8 in.).
When it comes to CNC turning, we can handle parts with a maximum diameter of 431 mm (17 in.)
and a length of 990 mm (39 in.). The recommended minimum part dimensions are around
10 x 10 x 10 mm (0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 in.), with a minimum feature size of 0.5 mm.
Please be aware that our platform has a limitation, and the maximum size for parts is 1000 mm
(39 in.). If your project requires dimensions beyond this limit, kindly reach out to our sales team
for further assistance.
3. Understanding CNC Machining Costs:
The cost of CNC machining is determined by factors such as complexity, quantity, and lead time.
To obtain an accurate cost estimate, we recommend submitting a 3D CAD model.
This allows us to provide an interactive quote and offer design for manufacturability (DFM)
feedback.
Notably, our use of proprietary software and automated fixturing processes eliminates upfront
non-recurring engineering (NRE) costs. This approach ensures that even for quantities as low as
1 to 200 parts, CNC machining remains a cost-effective option. While prices may be comparable
to or slightly higher than 3D printing, CNC machining provides enhanced material properties and
surface finishes, making it a valuable choice.
4. Benefits of CNC Machining:
CNC machining stands out for its numerous benefits, making it a preferred choice in manufacturing:
1. Speed: CNC machining provides a fast production process, allowing for the efficient creation of
end-use parts.
2. Accuracy: The precision and accuracy of CNC machining ensure high-quality, reliable parts that
meet stringent specifications.
3. Versatility: CNC machining is highly versatile, capable of handling a diverse range of materials
and intricate part designs with ease.
4. Cost-Effective: One of the key advantages is its cost-efficiency. CNC machining eliminates the
need for costly hard tooling and elaborate setups, making it a cost-effective solution for various
production volumes.
