  • When to Use CNC Milling Services

Complex Geometries: For parts with intricate features like slots, threads, or curved surfaces.

High Precision: When tolerances are critical (e.g., ±0.01 mm for aerospace components).

Durable Materials: For metals or engineering-grade plastics requiring strength.

Prototyping to Production: Suitable for one-off prototypes or small-to-medium batch runs.

Limitations

Material Waste: Subtractive process generates scrap, unlike additive manufacturing (e.g., 3D printing).

Cost: Higher setup costs for small runs compared to 3D printing or vacuum casting.

Geometric Constraints: Some complex internal features may require advanced 5-axis machines or alternative methods.
