CNC machining

CNC machining (Computer Numerical Control) is a widely used manufacturing process that uses automated high-speed cutting tools to form designs from metal or plastic stock, with pre-programmed computer software controlling the movement of the machinery and tools. This technology enables accurate, automated and repeatable production of complex parts by removing material from the workpiece to create the desired shape.

CNC milling uses rotational cutting tools to remove material from a workpiece to produce finished parts and products. This manufacturing process works well for many materials, including metals, polymers, wood and glass. CNC milling systems generally have 3 linear degrees of freedom: the X, Y and Z axis. This allows for top-notch precision and detailing. Protolabs Network also offers more advanced, 5-degree systems, where the tool head and machining bed (A and B axis) can also rotate. 5-axis CNC machines can produce parts with high geometric complexity without needing multiple machine setups.

We’re not only the fastest CNC machining manufacturer of machined prototypes but also the most reliable source of on-demand production parts. Why is this important? You have a single-source CNC machining supplier from concept validation to short-run production.

We offer more competitive pricing at higher quantities in addition to tighter tolerances, hardware assembly, first article inspection (FAI) reporting, material certifications, and additional finishing options like anodizing and chromate plating. It’s CNC machining designed around your project needs—whether prototyping or production.
