At Alpha-Mold, we are equipped with both local and imported CNC lathe machine, which could meet standard tolerance and high tolerance. The highest tolerance we could reach is as precise as + 0.005mm. This makes it ideal for components that require exact dimensions and consistent quality.

Our CNC lathe process is highly efficient, particularly for producing high volume runs of cylindrical parts. The automation and repeatability of CNC turning ensure that each part is identical, reducing errors and waste.

The same as CNC milling, CNC turning works with a wide range of materials, including metals like aluminum, steel, and titanium, as well as plastics such as nylon, PEEK, and PTFE. This versatility allows it to meet diverse industrial needs. CNC turning can be used for the rapid manufacture of either prototypes or end-use parts.

What is CNC Turning

CNC turning machines are known as CNC lathe machines. CNC turning is a precision machining process that uses a rotating workpiece and a stationary cutting tool to create cylindrical or tubular parts with high accuracy. Unlike CNC milling, where the cutting tool rotates around a stationary piece, CNC turning involves the material itself spinning in a chuck while the tool removes material to achieve the desired shape. This method is ideal for producing round or cylindrical parts and is widely used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing.

Advantages of CNC turning

  Ideal for Cylindrical Parts:

CNC turning machines are ideal for creating round or cylindrical parts. Lathes create these parts quickly, accurately and with excellent repeatability, such as shafts, bushings, and fittings, which are common in many mechanical applications.

  Cost-Effective for Complex Parts:

CNC lathes can be easily set up for high repeatability, which reduces the need for additional machinery or tool changes. This efficiency translates into lower production costs, especially for complex parts that would otherwise require multiple machining processes.

  High Precision and Consistency

CNC turning machines are capable of producing parts with exact dimensions, ensuring each piece meets stringent specifications. This level of precision is crucial in industries where even minor deviations can impact performance.
