A CNC routing machine is an automated, computer-controlled router that uses a computer program to guide the machine for precise and perfect cuts, each and every time. Due to its use of stationary material and computer-controlled cutting equipment, it is far more robust and precise than a hand-held, human-operated router. This makes it the best choice for commercial and industrial products which make CNC routing services and CNC products in high demand.
CNC machines are amazing pieces of technology. When you consider how challenging and time consuming it used to be to make products that you can make with a CNC machine today, the difference is striking. What once took days, weeks or even months is now done in hours or even minutes on a CNC machine.
The idea for the computer numerical control (CNC) machine goes back to well before the 1940’s, which was when the first numerical control machine was invented. These first machines were fed punched tape reels that delivered instructions to a rudimentary computer that carried out those instructions.
TThe CNC machines of today resemble their predecessors in concept alone! The ability of modern CNC routing services is unmatched in its ability to deliver precise work every time. Regardless of the project, CNC routing services can get you the results you are looking for.
CNC machines and CNC services are all made possible by the software that runs the machines themselves. We have come a long way from the ticker tape of the 1940s! Sophisticated computer programs are given 3D models of the finished products which are turned into plans that are executed by the CNC routing machine.
CNC products come in all different shapes and sizes and are made from many different types of materials. With CNC routing services, the material is loaded on the CNC machine and is locked into place. Once the diagram or plans for the product are loaded into the CNC machine, it gets to work, cutting with a computer-controlled routing blade in precise, exact movements.
When it comes to CNC products and CNC services, the options are almost limitless. The different types of materials CNC machines can use is growing and the complexity of the work that can be done is also growing daily.
The question should be, “What can’t I use?” The list of CNC materials and available options are extensive. If you have custom work that needs to be done, you can find a CNC material to suit your needs.
All woods and their derivatives can be used for CNC products and routing services. This includes:
The options for metal CNC materials is more limited due to the nature of working with metal. There are still many options to choose from when using CNC routing services.
Not all CNC machines can cut steel but softer metals are often used for CNC products.
When it comes to plastic and plastic derivatives, CNC machines can do it all
These materials can be up to 8” thick in some cases and up to 120” long!
