CNC Machining Services
CNC Milling Machining Parts
A milling machine is capable of rotating the cutting tool to remove material from a workpiece by means of relative movement between various cutting tools and the raw material. An automatic milling machine can be combined with specific machining operations such as threading, boring, drilling, grooving, reaming, cutting, facing, and parting. It is usually integrated with highly precise CNC control, coolant systems, translation/rotary systems, and more, to optimize its performance.
Apporo mainly operates with highly precise milling machining centers from Japan and Taiwan, such as Okuma, Takisawa, Sunmill, Ares-seki, Takumi, and Dahlih. These machines are generally categorized into vertical and multi-axial machining centers for various purposes. Send us your project design, and you will be impressed by our CNC machining services.
CNC Lathe Machining Parts
CNC turning machining involves a cutting tool that is fixed while the raw material rod is rotated on its driving headstock. Material is removed through relative movement between various cutting tools and the raw material rod.
An automatic turning machine can be equipped with specific operations such as turning, threading, boring, drilling, grooving, reaming, cutting, facing, parting, and knurling.
Apporo mainly operates with highly precise turning machines from Japan and Taiwan, such as Nomura, Star, Moriseiki, Miyano, Takisawa, and Chiah Chyun. These machines are generally categorized into Fixed Head and Sliding Head turning/lathe machining centers for various purposes.
What is CNC machining?
CNC machining services are an essential part of the manufacturing industry, providing high-precision, high-quality parts for a wide range of applications. Computer numerical control(CNC) could be a powerful machine which fixed and rotated the raw material rod on it's driving headstock, to remove the material by means of relative movement between various cutting tools and raw material rod. Advanced programming software which optimized machine setting, cutting time, surface finish, and fine turning tolerance is used to control a CNC turning milling machine according to the instructions of clients' CAD drawing file. CNC machines can be used to produce parts from a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, and wood.
One of the primary advantages of CNC machining services is their ability to produce parts quickly and accurately. Because the machines are controlled by computer programs, they can produce parts much more quickly than manual methods. Additionally, because the cutting process is controlled by a computer, it is much more consistent, resulting in parts that are identical to each other. This consistency is essential for many applications, particularly in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medical, where parts must meet very strict tolerances.
Another advantage of CNC machining services is their flexibility. CNC machines can be programmed to produce parts of nearly any shape or size, from simple parts to complex geometries. This flexibility allows manufacturers to produce parts for a wide range of applications, from small, intricate components to large, heavy-duty parts.
CNC machining services are also ideal for producing low-volume or custom parts. Because the machines are programmable, they can be quickly set up to produce parts in small quantities or to produce custom parts that may not be available through standard manufacturing processes. This makes CNC machining services an excellent option for prototyping or for producing parts that are unique or have specialized requirements.
When choosing a CNC machining service, it is essential to choose a provider with the experience and expertise necessary to produce high-quality parts. Look for a company with a track record of producing parts for your industry and with the equipment and capabilities necessary to meet your requirements. Additionally, it is important to consider the company's quality control processes and certifications, such as ISO 9001, which indicate a commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
Types of CNC Production Lines
At Apporo, we offer our clients with varies of CNC services including turning, milling, drilling, grinding and much more. Our engineer can use precision manufacturing production lines such as 3, 4 and 5 axis machine centers to make parts base on clients' 2D and 3D CAD drawings. CNC Hobbing is mainly used for cutting gears, splines, and key slots. CNC plasma cutters and CNC water jet cutters are used for profile cutting of the sheet material.
No matter your are looking for precision plastics, aluminum, stainless steel parts manufacturing, our production lines are capable of wide range of precision parts made of plastics or metals. Contact our team to get a free quote and to discuss which manufacturing process is the most efficient and suitable one for your project.
From CAD drawing to machined parts
We are capable of making parts from the print via CAM software, CNC turning and milling machines.
1.) Checking and confirming your CAD drawings
Once order confirmed, 2D and 3D CAD drawings well received from clients. Till today, more than ten thouthand CAD drawings been checked and confirmed before production to feedback if there are any problems opening the drawing files or other obvious issues:
a.) To receive a "no quote" if the part is outside Apporo's capabilities.
b.) To receive suggestions for ways to improve design for production, also to reduce cost without losing functionality.
c.) To receive a quote with the shortest possible lead time for delivery.
2.) Programming
Our professional CNC programmers use PC-based CAD/CAM software Mastercam for fast and efficient turning/milling. During this stage, we keep looking for better way to optimize design for production.
3.) Production
Following instruction of CAM software, step by step well manufactured via CNC milling machine centers while our production lines are capable of 2 axis, 3 axis, 4 axis and 5 axis CNC machines. From simple dowel pins, shaft to complex turning-milling parts, we have got you covered.
CNC machining vs 3D Printing
3D printing is kind of parts manufacturing through additive methods, featured with:
- Flexible Design
- Rapid Prototyping
- Print on Demand
- Strong and Lightweight Parts
- Fast Design and Production
- Minimising Waste
- Cost Effective
- Ease of Access
Compare to 3D printing, parts manufactured via CNC machining services could be generally stronger and have much better production quality and finish. Eventually, CNC machining is typically used from early to late stages of project development whenever parts are ready to be sample tested for functional accuracy or mass production.
Applications of CNC Machining Services
CNC machining services can be used in various industries, including:
- Aerospace
CNC machines are widely used in the aerospace industry to produce complex parts with high precision and accuracy. These parts are often made of lightweight materials such as aluminum and titanium, which require high-speed machining capabilities.
- Automotive
The automotive industry uses CNC machines to produce parts for engines, transmissions, and other components. These parts must be of high quality and require high precision and accuracy.
- Medical
CNC machining services are used in the medical industry to produce custom-made parts for medical devices, implants, and prosthetics. These parts must be of high quality and meet strict regulatory requirements.
- Electronics
The electronics industry uses CNC machines to produce components for electronic devices, such as printed circuit boards (PCBs). These parts must be of high quality and require high precision and accuracy.
