CNC milling

CNC milling is one of the fundamental processes in advanced machining. Thanks to Robofeed’s automation technologies, milling operations achieve a higher level of precision and reliability, optimising production efficiency.

What is CNC milling?

CNC milling is a machining process using rotating tools to remove material from a blank, creating flat surfaces, grooves and complex geometries.

Thanks to computerised numerical control (CNC), every aspect of machining (from rotation speed to tool movements) is managed with millimetre precision, so we can guarantee repeatable results, even for intricate geometries and on different materials.

What is CNC milling used for?

CNC milling is used to produce three-dimensional components with high precision: motor housings, curved surfaces, prototypes, moulds and more.

It is a versatile process, suitable for both small series and large productions.

Thanks to CNC automation, setup and machining time is reduced, ensuring lower costs and faster delivery times.

FEATURES of CNC milling

  • HIGH PRECISION AND COMPLEXITY
    CNC milling allows the creation of complex parts with close tolerances, ensuring a precise finish even on curved surfaces and complex geometries.
  • REDUCING PRODUCTION TIME
    CNC automation reduces machining time, increasing production efficiency. Robofeed’s solutions guarantee a continuous process, with fast tool changes and minimal errors.
  • VERSATILITY OF MATERIALS
    This process is suitable for a wide variety of materials, from metal to plastic, providing flexibility in many industries.

The benefits of process optimization

To optimize CNC milling, it is essential to configure cutting parameters according to the material and complexity of the part. Robofeed offers automation solutions that improve productivity by reducing tool change times and intelligently managing the entire production cycle.

The integration of advanced CNC systems with machine tools enables constant monitoring and optimization of the process, ensuring high-quality results.
