From a simple coin and the electronic devices we use every day to parts of an airplane, everything comes from a very sophisticated process known as precision technology servicing. It is a process of removing materials from a work piece while holding close to large finishes. This precision machining service has many types including machining, milling, electrical discharge, and tryout. Today, most of the manufacturing companies use advanced precision machining done by an EDM machine. Generally, however, precision machines are controlled through the use of computerized or CNC numerical controls.
A precision technology service contributes to each and every object we see. Most metal products undergo precision machining to achieve consistent, quality products, usually from intricate designs from blueprints. Also, wood and plastic materials use this machining method operated by highly trained and specialized machinists. The precision machining process involves cutting tools, which are responsible for removing material from a work piece. In order for the tool to make its cut correctly, it moves in a specific direction for a correct and precise cut. This main movement is what we call the cutting speed. The secondary movement is called the feed in which the workpiece can move during the process. Simultaneously, the movements and sharpening of the tool allow to operate the precision machining service.
One type of precision technology service is a milling machine, which shapes and cuts materials. This machine can be horizontal or vertical depending on the orientation of the spindle. It works so that both the cutter and the part move, which is controlled mechanically, manually or by a CNC mill. An advanced milling machining used by most manufacturing companies is the CNC milling machine. It is primarily controlled by a computer and is typically used with horizontal or vertical milling machines and can also move the axis along the Z axis. The first CNC machine, eventually called an NC (numerical control) machine, was made in the 1940s. Today’s CNC machining is powered by computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software.
The lathe machine dates back to ancient Egypt. Over the years, it has gone from being something made of wood to something made of metal. Today, the machines are operated by a computer. In some countries where technology is advanced, a CNC lathe machine is used. It is a machining lathe in which it is controlled by computers. Therefore, this method generates more varieties of dimensions, features and shapes while maintaining a very tight tolerance.
