Turning and milling operations are a combined metal machining method that integrates turning processes (rotation of the workpiece and movement of the cutting tool) and milling processes (rotation of the milling cutter and movement of the workpiece or cutting tool) to produce complex, high-precision parts on a single machine or on several sequential machines. This combination makes it possible to manufacture parts with cylindrical, conical, flat, and complex surfaces that cannot be produced using a single machining method.
New Standard performs turning and milling operations on CNC equipment in accordance with the requirements of the customer’s technical documentation.
Turning and Milling Operations | Technological Processes
Modern turning and milling operations provided by the manufacturing company New Standard may include the following technological processes:
- Turning — machining cylindrical, conical, and contoured surfaces on metal workpieces;
- Facing — machining of end faces;
- Drilling, boring, countersinking, and reaming — creation and finishing of holes in workpieces;
- Thread cutting — production of external and internal metric or trapezoidal threads;
- Cut-off operations — separation of the finished part from the workpiece;
- Forming rounded edges and corners, fillets, and contoured surfaces;
- Creation of keyways and grooves for sealing ring installation;
- Profiling of end surfaces and creation of steps;
- Milling and manufacturing of gears, splines, worms, and other mechanical components;
- Grinding, polishing, engraving, application of decorative patterns, and other finishing operations.
Purpose of Turning and Milling Operations
CNC milling and turning operations offer a number of advantages. They make it possible to achieve:
- High precision — CNC machines ensure full compliance of finished parts with engineering drawings;
- Complex geometry — the ability to manufacture parts and assemblies with combined technological features (for example, cylindrical surfaces with slots or grooves);
- Time efficiency — the combined machining approach reduces setup time and eliminates the need for repeated repositioning of the workpiece between operations.
CNC turning and milling operations are used to manufacture parts and technological components from structural and stainless steels, aluminum alloys, bronze, brass, and other non-ferrous alloys. Such products are widely used in mechanical engineering, aviation, railway and automotive transport, energy, agriculture and municipal services, as well as in the mining, processing, and manufacturing industries.
