CNC milling service has become a cornerstone of modern manufacturing. Whether you need rapid prototyping or high-volume production, CNC milling offers unmatched accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency. At Langhe Casting, we deliver industry-grade CNC milling services tailored to meet the unique requirements of global clients in automotive, aerospace, medical, electronics, and industrial sectors.

What Is CNC Milling?

CNC milling (Computer Numerical Control milling) is a subtractive manufacturing process that uses rotating multi-point cutting tools to remove material from a solid block (workpiece). It follows precise digital instructions generated from 3D CAD files to achieve complex geometries with tight tolerances.

Key Features:

  • High-precision machining (±0.01 mm or better)

  • Excellent surface finishes (Ra ≤ 0.8 μm achievable)

  • Multi-axis capabilities (3-axis, 4-axis, 5-axis)

  • Compatible with metals and plastics

CNC Milling Process: Step-by-Step

Understanding the CNC milling workflow helps clients appreciate its accuracy and efficiency. Here’s a simplified breakdown:

  1. CAD Model Creation: Engineers design the 3D model using CAD software.

  2. CAM Programming: CAM tools convert the model into G-code instructions for the milling machine.

  3. Material Setup: The workpiece is fixed to the machine bed using clamps or vises.

  4. Machining: The machine cuts the material along specified toolpaths.

  5. Finishing & Inspection: Parts undergo deburring, polishing, and strict dimensional checks.


Types of CNC Milling Machines

Different machine configurations allow for varying degrees of freedom and complexity.

Machine Type Description Best For
3-Axis Milling Cuts along X, Y, and Z axes Simple geometries, flat parts
4-Axis Milling Adds rotation around the X-axis Cylindrical cuts, slots
5-Axis Milling Moves in X, Y, Z + rotates around X and Y Complex 3D surfaces, aerospace components
