WHAT IS A CNC MACHINE?

A CNC machine is a computer controlled high precision tool that is able to make intricate movements accurately to cut and manufacture a piece. Our machines use a variety of routers and spindles to mill, cut, engrave and shape materials in an automated machining operation.



HOW DOES A CNC MACHINE WORK?

A CNC machine takes codes from a computer and converts the code using software into electrical signals. The signals from the computer are then used to control motors. Since the motors have the ability to move in very intricate steps, we are able to achieve highly precise cuts and operations.



WHAT CAN CNC MACHINES DO?

There is virtually no limit to what a CNC machine can do! CNC machines are responsible for almost all modern day machining operations in manufacturing industries. They normally cost from tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Our machines can be used to engrave plaques and manufacture custom wood, metal and plastic components. All it requires is a willingness to learn and understand how each machine can accomplish a specific task.



WHAT IS THE PREFERRED 3D CAD FILE FORMAT FOR CNC MACHINING?

PARASOLID (.x_t or .x_b) STP or STEP (.stp or .step) IGS or IGES (.igs or .iges) ProE Native Files (.prt) ACIS SAT (.sat) Solidworks Native files (.sldprt)



CAN WE SUPPLY OUR OWN MATERIAL FOR MACHINING?

Yes, we are able to use third party materials but also source our own high quality materials and provide them to you at cost. Please contact our friendly support team to learn more about how we can best help you with this issue!



HOW MUCH DOES CNC MACHINING COST?

The cost of a project will very greatly with the amount of detail required in the component, size of the piece, quantity, material type amongst other factors so it is difficult to provide a quote without knowing what you are trying to achieve. However, you can give us a call and chat with one of our engineers or send us a quick message for an accurate quote for your project.
