CNC Milling
About CNC Milling
Computer controlled or CNC milling is a process used to machine component parts from solid materials in both horizontal and vertical form, depending on the orientation of the spindle. In the milling process, both the cutter and the workpiece are moved with precise control to less than 0.001 in (0.025 mm), usually by means of precision ground slides and lead screws or a similar technology.
CNC milling machines perform a wide range of operations ranging from simple cutting to complex contouring. Cutting fluid is typically used with CNC milling machines to cool and lubricate the work surface.
