Procision Manufacturing
CNC Milling Explained
CNC milling is a subtractive manufacturing process that uses rotary cutting tools to selectively remove material from a solid workpiece. A 3D design model is created first, and that’s used to make a cutting program that guides the precise movements of the machine tool.
Our multi axis milling centers are both stable and flexible, enabling the workpiece to rotate at various angles while holding tight tolerances. This increases the types of features we can make in a single set-up, saving valuable time and money while ensuring high-quality, sophisticated designs for advanced applications.

Common Questions
CNC Milling Services FAQ
Find answers to common questions about our CNC milling services and how we help industries like medical, electronics, agriculture, and consumer products achieve their goals.
What's the difference between CNC milling and turning?
Broadly speaking, in CNC milling, the workpiece remains stationary while the cutting tool rotates to remove material. This is best for creating flat surfaces, cavities, and prismatic shapes. In contrast, CNC turning rotates the workpiece while a stationary tool removes material, best suited for cylindrical features. Hybrid machines that combine both CNC milling and turning offer enhanced flexibility for complex projects.
What are the advantages of CNC milling vs 3D printing?
While both CNC milling and 3D printing are powerful manufacturing processes, they serve different purposes. CNC milling produces near-net final shapes that are ready to be used, offering precision and dimensional stability. It’s best for producing features that are in line-of-sight of the cutting tool. 3D printing, however, excels at making complex, hard-to-machine shapes that are not limited by line-of-sight. It’s also slower, less precise, and requires significant post-processing.
CNC milling works with a broader range of materials, including sheet metal and engineering plastic. CNC milling machines can also accommodate larger part sizes.
What are the tolerances of Procision's CNC milling service?
Our standard tolerances for precision CNC milling comply with ISO 2768-1 fine. This corresponds to +/- 0.05 mm deviation from the nominal, which is more than good enough for most projects. If you need even more accuracy, contact us to discuss our specialized service for precision components.
What materials can be used in precision CNC milling?
- Metals: Aluminum, mild and stainless steel, titanium, brass
- Plastics: Acrylic, PEEK, PTFE
- Composites: Custom composite materials
The choice of material depends on the application, mechanical requirements, and cost considerations. –

Common Questions
CNC Milling Services FAQ
Find answers to common questions about our CNC milling services and how we help industries like medical, electronics, agriculture, and consumer products achieve their goals.
How does CNC milling differ from CNC turning?
Each of these two CNC machining services has strengths and weaknesses. CNC milling uses a stationary workpiece and a rotating cutting tool to remove material, making it suitable for creating flat surfaces, cavities, and prismatic shapes. In contrast, CNC turning rotates the workpiece while a stationary lathe removes material, which is best for cylindrical parts.
How does CNC milling compare to 3D printing?
These two manufacturing processes differ significantly and cater to different aspects of product development. CNC milling can make near-net final shapes that are ready to be immediately put into service. However, it can only produce features that are in line-of-site of the rotary cutting tool. 3D printing is not limited to line-of-site features so it excels at making complex, hard to machine shapes. But it’s much slower and the dimensional accuracy is poor.
CNC milling works with a broader range of materials, including sheet metal and polymers like polyethylene and PMMA, ensuring superior mechanical properties and finishes. Milling machines can also accommodate larger part sizes with higher dimensional stability. On the other hand, 3D printing excels in producing intricate designs without the constraints of tool access, though the finish quality will require additional post-processing.
What materials can be used in CNC milling?
CNC milling supports a wide range of materials, including metals (aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, brass), plastics (acrylic, PEEK, PTFE), and composites. The choice of material depends on the application, mechanical requirements, and cost considerations.
What industries benefit from CNC milling?
CNC milling is used in industries such as medical devices, electronics, consumer products, aerospace, and automotive. It’s ideal for creating precision parts like medical implants, circuit boards, engine components, and custom housings with tight tolerances.
What are the advantages of CNC milling?
CNC milling is renowned for its high precision, repeatability, and ability to create parts with precise dimensions and superior surface finishes. Cutting programs can be set up quickly, while there’s no need for dedicated hard tooling. Also, CNC milling works just as well for a single part as for one million, so there are no volume restrictions.
The inherent flexibility and versatility of CNC milling makes it the single fastest way to make the widest variety of finished shapes from hard metals and plastics. These parts are full strength and can be used for prototypes and product testing as well as finished production parts. And CNC milling offers tight tolerances that are more than accurate enough for the vast majority of common applications in many industries and working environments.
What are the limitations of CNC milling?
While CNC milling excels at shaping flat surfaces, cavities, and intricate geometries, it is less efficient for creating cylindrical parts, which are better suited for our CNC turning services. It’s important to note that complex designs with deep cavities or thin walls may require specialized tooling or additional processing steps.
What types of parts can CNC milling create?
CNC milling can create a variety of custom parts, including prototypes, molds, jigs, fixtures, enclosures, and custom components with intricate designs. It’s particularly effective for parts that require close tolerances with repeatable results.
What are common surface finishes for CNC milled parts?
CNC milled parts can have finishes such as bead blasting for a matte look, anodizing for corrosion resistance, powder coating for durability, or polishing for a smooth surface. These finishes enhance appearance, functionality, and longevity.
How do I get a CNC milling quote?
