What is Rapid Prototyping CNC Machining?
CNC prototyping, CNC prototyping refers to the use of CNC machining (computer numerical control machining) to manufacture high-quality prototype parts. During the machining process, the program is written through the CNC machining language, and the tool on the CNC machine moves on the material according to the path set by the program, removing excess material to obtain the approximate shape of the prototype.
1. No minimum order quantity requirement
There is no limit on the order quantity and product value.
2. A wide range of materials to choose from
There are many types of materials for CNC processing. The main metal materials are: aluminum alloy, stainless steel, brass, various steels, titanium alloys, etc., which can meet the performance requirements of different materials.
3. High precision and stable quality
One of the most important advantages of CNC prototypes is that its CNC processing accuracy is higher than other processing, and the maximum tolerance can reach ±0.001mm / 0.001 In, and multi-faceted structural products can be formed in one go.
4. High fidelity and super high surface finish.
CNC prototypes have high fidelity and high surface treatment level. After subsequent processing such as grinding, polishing, sandblasting, painting, silk screen, UV, electroplating, etc., the product effect is completely comparable to the products produced by the mold.

CNC Machining FAQs
CNC Machining, or Computer Numerical Control Machining, is a manufacturing technique where computer-controlled devices are used to remove layers from a material, creating detailed parts or components. Through a combination of tooling and precise machine movement, it produces parts to exact specifications.
Our own internal processing capabilities: Five-Axis CNC 16 Units, Four-Axis CNC 12 Units, Three-Axis CNC 27 Units, CNC Milling & Turning 16 Units. If you have larger processing needs, we can also meet them.
CNC Machining offers unparalleled precision and repeatability, making it a top choice for industries requiring intricate parts. Its ability to handle a variety of materials, from metals to plastics, combined with fast production times and consistent quality, makes it an essential method in modern manufacturing.
The CNC machining process begins by designing a part in CAD software. This design is then converted into a set of machine commands using CAM software. The CNC machine reads these commands to precisely cut and shape the material, producing a finished part that matches the digital design.
3D printing is an additive manufacturing method, building parts by depositing material layer by layer. In contrast, CNC machining is a subtractive method, starting with a solid block of material and removing sections until the desired part is achieved. While 3D printing is often favored for complex geometries and rapid prototyping, CNC machining excels in durability, precision, and material versatility.
Our engineering and sales teams will provide one-on-one quote support for your project. Typically, for similar parts, CNC lathes cost 15% less to machine than standard 3-axis CNC milling. In contrast, the cost of 5-axis machining increases, continuous 5-axis CNC milling typically costs over 20% higher than an indexed 5-axis machine (also referred to as 3+2 milling), and about double that of a standard 3-axis mill. To achieve the most cost-effective CNC machined parts, larger production runs are recommended to spread the cost of machine setup.
Maximum Dimensions (3-axis milling): 1500*800*300mm, 1270×508×635 (mm).
Maximum Dimensions (5-axis milling): 4000*400*150mm, 750x1150x550mm,
600*600*600mm, 500*500*450mm, 500*310*200mm,
Worktable Diameter Φ400 mm. All can be processed, and larger sizes can also be consulted by engineers
Once the machining process is complete, the CNC parts surface will have slight visible tool marks, called “as-machined” or “as-milled” surface finish. Machined surface roughness (Ra) is standardized at 1.6-3.2 μm, and surface finish requirements can be increased to 0.8-1.6 μm or higher at 0.2-0.8 μm, however, this will require more operating time and higher costs.
