The Difference Between Conventional and Non-Conventional Machining Process
07 April 2020
Most people don’t know that the manufacturing process consist of two groups namely the primary and secondary processes. The primary process creates the basic shape and size of the material while the secondary one – otherwise known as the machining process provides the final shape and size with a tighter control on dimensions, surface characteristics, etc. To further understand the secondary manufacturing process, you must know the difference between the conventional and non-conventional machining process. Tools Used Conventional machining process must always have a physical tool present. For instance, a cutting tool in a Lathe machine. On the other hand, […]

Machining Hard and Exotic Materials: What Is It All About?
20 March 2020
Manufacturers use a variety of materials today to make their products. While some fit into the soft category, many others fit into the hard or exotic category. You may picture exotic as meaning that the material is from far off land, but it is a term used to describe materials that wear durably in conditions of extreme cold, high heat or corrosiveness. The process of forming these materials into products is called hard machining. It is specially designed to cut materials with a hardness range of 45 HRC to 68 HRC efficiently. We will briefly cover these materials and the […]

EDM Wire Cutting: What Is It All About?
13 March 2020
EDM stands for electrical discharge machining, and one of its processes utilises wire cutting to perform its functions. In comparison to other forms of CNC machines, the EDM machines are unique since they accomplish their goals by discharging electricity to remove pieces rather than tools coming into contact with the material to do this task. To ensure that you fully understand the specifics of electrical discharge machining, we provide the following information. How the Process of Electrical Discharge Machining Is Performed Even though there are different types of electrical discharge machining, they all work in the same basic fashion. The […]

Things You Need to Know About Five-Axis CNC Machines
21 February 2020
CNC is an abbreviation for computer numerical control, and the machines of this style need preset requirements created by specially designed software to accomplish their tasks effectively. Many turn to CNC for milling processes since the machines use a subtractive technique to cut away material systemically to bring about the intended results. It is important to note, though, that these machines can do more than just milling, depending upon their design. While the most well-known versions of these machines are three-axis and four-axis ones, there also are advanced five-axis versions. It is the latter one that we will be explaining […]

CNC Machining Operations: A Vital Process in Manufacturing
03 February 2020
Over recent years, CNC machining has become a vital process in numerous manufacturing facilities in this country and globally. The reason for this is that it is controllable through computer software which produces precision results with each piece that this type of machining creates. In fact, CNC is the abbreviation for “computer numerical control,” and this is a subtractive process that removes a specific portion of material from the work piece or blank to produce a customised part. Industries that find this process useful include those dealing with transport, recycling, mining, medical, food, automation, packaging, and automotive along with a […]
