Computer Numerical Control, commonly known as CNC, is a machining process that involves computer-guided machine tools to produce high-quality parts.CNC is one of the leading technologies used by innovative tool and die manufacturers. Leading CNC  machining companies enable operators in the tool and die making process to control the movements with total accuracy and efficiency. Common tools used in CNC production services include lathes, crane lifts, mills, routers, and grinders. Laszeray is proud to offer cost-effective services to organizations seeking a dependable CNC production company.

Benefits of CNC Machining for Production

CNC machining confers a number of valuable benefits. It can produce metal and plastic parts with very tight tolerances. A well-managed CNC production company like Laszeray can also handle low- and high-volume machining, granting the flexibility of using this technology to offer everything from a rapid prototyping service based on customer concept models to manufacturing services that can yield large runs of field-ready products.

Product development teams and other leadership teams invest with Laszeray because we offer state-of-the-art high-precision CNC machining equipment that comes with an array of advanced features, such as pallet changing, high speed operations, and four-axis and five-axis capabilities which allows us to deliver efficient, low-cost CNC engineering services.

LASZERAY’S PRODUCTION CAPABILITIES RELY ON A VARIETY OF IN-HOUSE SERVICES AND MACHINES:

Technical:

  • CNC Production Machining

    Computer numerical controlled machining delivers, precise, consistent results. It is ideal for low- and medium-quantity production runs.

  • Haas High Speed 4 and 5 Axis Milling Centers

    Haas High Speed 4 and 5 Axis Milling centers offer plug-and-play 4 and 5 axis tool capability. This allows for increasingly complex machining operations on multiple axes without the need for specialized mills.

  • Haas CNC Turning

    CNC turning is the precision process in which bar material is machined on a rotating plane with a single tool that removes material to create the desired shape.

  • Mitsubishi Large Capacity Wire EDM Machines

    With Mitsubishi’s proprietary Cylindrical Drive Technology—the most advanced linear drive available—the Wire EDM machine can produce precise cuts without wear, cogging, or backlash. The Mitsubishi Large Capacity Wire EDM is ideal for hardened steel tool and die making.

Products Made by CNC Machining

The products made by a CNC machine can be endless, and many of them are objects we see on a daily basis without giving them much thought. CNC machining technology creates items like pens, tyre rims, components for scuba diving equipment, ventilators, guitars, lamps, curtain rods, airplane engine parts, tennis racquets and thousands of other things we take for granted. CNC machining enables engineers a great deal of ease and speed in producing wood, metal and plastic parts in a safe, efficient and economically sound manner that is well above the bar when it comes to other production methods.

Industries Best Suited for CNC Machining

CNC machining is suitable for virtually any industry. However, the speed and precision of this manufacturing method makes it a particularly ideal fit for the aerospace, healthcare,  transportation, automobile, retail product development and defense industries. In some cases the parts made by CNC machining are intricate and very delicate, and in other cases they are basic and flexible, or robust and solid. Savvy organizations seeking reliable, fast, affordable and efficient options for producing machined parts almost always partner with a CNC machining service provider that helps guide clients in the right direction.

Types of Machines Uses in CNC Machining

It is important for organizations to familiarize themselves with both the old and new CNC Machining methods that are available so they will know what direction to take in determining the option that will best suit the materials that are to be worked with. When you call Laszeray for CNC machining services our specialists will walk you through the available options, which include these:

  • Mills – Also commonly known as CNC machine centers, milling machines can be used for metal engraving and woodworking to create parts or sculptures. Computer code is used to control the process.
  • Lathes – CNC lathes are commonly used in metal spinning, glass working, parts reclamation, woodturning, thermal spraying, metal working, and many other types of applications that revolve around aerospace, automotive and firearms manufacturing industries.
  • Plasma Cutters – CNC plasma cutters cut two dimensional wood and metal and don’t require the same levels of power used by a router or other methods. Most of the time CNC plasma torches are used to cut sheet metal or wood.
  • CNC Router – CNC routers are used to engrave plastic, metal or wood. This is a very common type of CNC machining used by a wide range of industries. The router is controlled by a computer in which all the necessary information for completing the project is entered.
  • CNC Laser – The operational functionality of a CNC laser cutter is similar to a CNC plasma cutter, but in this case it’s a laser that cuts the metal, wood or plastic.
  • Pick and Place CNC Machines – When it comes to engineering computers, mobile phones, tablets, and other such devices, pick and place CNC machines are used. This method utilizes multiple nozzles that pick up electrical components intended for equipment and position them in the right internal  locations.
  • 3D Printer – Similar to CNC lasers, 3D printers work with CNC technology but have an extruder to deposit plastic in a consistent motion that doesn’t deviate from its intended course, and comes to a complete stop once the intended product has been completed.
