The machining of precision parts involves a wide range of processes, especially in the hardware machining industry. Today, Chenju Precision will answer some questions about the methods for machining precision parts.
Main methods for machining precision parts:
Turning, milling, planing, shaping, grinding, drilling, boring, punching, sawing, etc. Other methods may include wire cutting, casting, forging, electro-etching, powder machining, electroplating, and various heat treatments.
Lathe: Includes vertical and horizontal lathes; newer equipment includes CNC lathes, primarily for machining rotating bodies;
Milling: Includes vertical and horizontal milling machines; newer equipment includes CNC milling machines, also called machining centers; primarily for machining grooves and straight-line surfaces, but can also machine curved surfaces using two- or three-axis simultaneous machining;
Planking: Primarily for machining straight-line surfaces; normally, the surface roughness produced is not as high as that of a milling machine;
Shaping: Can be understood as a vertical planer, very suitable for machining incomplete circular arcs;
Grinding: Includes surface grinding, cylindrical grinding, internal grinding, tool grinding, etc.; used for high-precision surface machining, producing workpieces with exceptionally high surface roughness;
Drilling: Machining holes;
Boring: Primarily for boring internal holes using boring tools or inserts;
Punching: Primarily for forming shapes using a punch press, capable of punching round or irregularly shaped holes;
Sawing: Primarily for cutting using a saw, commonly used in the blanking process.
