How CNC milling works.

In CNC milling, a rotating cutter removes material as the tool and part move along programmed paths. On turned and threaded parts, milling adds features a lathe alone cannot produce, such as wrench flats, spanner slots, and pockets.

  • Milled features on turned and threaded components
  • Slots, flats, pockets, and profiles
  • Setups planned around part geometry and how features relate
  • Coordinated with turning, deburring, and inspection

Where CNC milling is used.

  • Spanner nuts and specialty nuts

  • Machined features for assemblies

  • Military and aerospace hardware
