The most trusted brand in the market – We often hear or read this phrase whenever we come across ads or in-person pitches from marketing assistants wherein they state/claim that they are part of the top most brands among their respective categories, if not the best. However, with all the brands claiming they are the […]

Industries such as – The Marine Industry, Medicine, Optical, Automotive, Consumer goods, Robotics, Telecommunications, Aerospace, and Military Defense – are all heavily reliant to Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) Machines for the production of their parts and goods due to its speed, precision, accuracy, and timeliness. The machines’ ability to work with any materials and mass-produce […]

Computer Numerical Control Milling machines – also dubbed as the CNC Mill – works through removing excess parts from a material and comes in two variants: The Horizontal and Vertical Milling. They are typically used to produce flat and curved Parts. In an airplane, the flat parts are mostly created as transmission boxes, cavities, bearing […]

Precision CNC Machining is a practice where machines function by trimming or cutting excess raw materials and shape work pieces according to its planned design. The objects produced are precise and achieve the specified measurement programmed to the CNC machines. The most common processes are milling, turning, cutting, and electrical discharge. These machines are applied […]

MAKINO: A REPUTED BRAND Around May 1937, Makino Shoten was founded by Tsuzeno Makino. Later in 1961, the company was renamed as “Makino Milling Machine Co., Ltd.”. True to its name, the company has created a reputation of being the manufacturer of the No. 1 Type Vertical Milling Machines. The company was also the one […]

Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines are heavy-duty and extremely accurate performers. Machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, and multi-axis machining centers perform multiple complicated machining tasks at the same time and sometimes lead to long uninterrupted periods of production. Studies show that manufacturing and process industries lose an estimated $20 to $60 billion each […]

Vertical Machining Center (VMC) is a machining center in which the spindle axis and the rectangular worktable are set vertically, which is suitable for processing workpieces with high accuracy and precision, even with multiple procedures and complex shapes. The spindle cartridge is mounted in a housing that moves vertically which is known as the z-axis […]

Turning Machines: Get to Know your CNC Lathes Due to its speed and accuracy, Computer Numerical Control Lathes (CNC Lathes), often referred as “Turning Machines”, are preferred by industries that mass produce symmetrically shaped objects. It is highly-praised since it is easier and more efficient to use. In the production process, human intervention is low […]

CNC machining is computer-driven and is reliant on uploaded instructions and translated by a Computer Aided Manufacturing Software (CAM) for the precision of the tools. It is a subtractive manufacturing method wherein the outputs produced by the machines are from a larger block and are shaped to the desired design. It utilizes sharp tools for […]

As the name suggests, horizontal machining is the process of removing material from a workpiece with rotary cutters that operate in a horizontally oriented spindle. It is also known as “horizontal milling” and has shorter and more robust cutting tools in order to achieve deeper and more robust cuts. It occurs on a horizontal machining […]

One of the most commonly used machines in the manufacturing industry is the milling machine, which has a rotating cutting tool that is used to remove unwanted material from a stationary workpiece. It is used for drilling, grooving, boring, producing slots, and shaping metals and irregular surfaces. The materials that can be used for milling […]

A lathe machine is a commonly used machine that works through removing the undesired material from a rotating workpiece with a cutting tool that is fed against the work either crosswise or longitudinally to give its desired shape and size. This is also known as the “mother of all machines” and due to its versatility, […]

Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) is a computerized manufacturing process in which pre-programmed software and code controls the speed and movement of the production equipment. CNC machining controls a range of complex machinery such as grinders, lathes and turning mills, which are used to cut, shape and create different parts and prototypes. CNC machines are automated […]

In the manufacturing industry, some of the essential machines used are lathe and milling machines. These machines have the same machining principle known as subtractive machining, which involves the use of a cutting tool to remove material from a workpiece and shape that material into the desired specifications. However, both machines differ in terms of […]

When buying a used CNC machine, you should consider a few things before buying and make sure that it can provide all the needs that your shop needs. Here are some of the things you want to consider before committing to buying a used CNC machine. Tolerance – Tolerance refers to the acceptable deviation of […]

A CNC machine could be very costly if the machine is not maintained properly. When purchasing a CNC machine, it is important to know how to take proper care of the machine. Maintaining it could save the engineer and company from spending and replacing parts of the machine, and it could help the machine to […]

Computer Numerical Control(CNC) machining is a manufacturing process in which pre-programmed software dictates the movement of factory machinery. CNC Machines are used to create parts and components for almost every industry. This helps the modern-day manufacturing with its high productivity and fast relying method. There are a lot of advantages and benefits this machine could […]

Evolving from the numerical control machining process which utilized punched tape cards, CNC machining is a manufacturing process that utilizes computerized controls to operate and manipulate machine and cutting tools to shape stock material such as metal, plastic, wood, foam, composite, etc. into custom parts and designs. While the CNC machining process offers various capabilities […]

CNC machining is a metal fabrication method where written code controls the machinery in the manufacturing process. The code determines everything from the movement of the cutting head and the part to spindle speed, RPMs, etc. CNC machines are rather expensive so most shop owners buy used CNC machines. You can save a large amount […]

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) is an automated control of machining tools such as drills, lathes, mills, and 3D printers using a computer. It takes digitized data and is controlled, automated, and monitored by a computer and CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) program. CNC machining uses highly detailed programming operations. These machines follow instructions without allowing any unwanted […]
