Zhongde CNC Machining Process
CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing process that involves removing part of a workpiece using instructions from a CAD model to make a product. The CNC machine removes parts of the workpiece by machining operations such as turning, drilling, or milling, according to codes (g-code and m-code) obtained from the CAD model and containing instructions on machining parameters.
Milling is a machining method in which a milling cutter is used as a tool for the surface of an object. Use a rotating multi-edge tool to cut the workpiece.
Turn is a method of cutting the workplece on the lathe by rotating the workpiece relative to the tool. Turning is suitable for machining revolving surfaces.

CNC Machining Surface Finishing
CNC Machining Parts surface finish is critical to a successful part design and it is used for aesthetic and functional reasons in injection molded parts for engineering products. The surface finish improves the look and the feel of a product as the perceived value and quality of the product increase with a suitable surface finish.

As Machined
For as machined all sharp edges are removed and parts are deburred. Tool marks are visible.
All plastics and metals
Uniform matte of raw material color
Smoothing
A finishing CNC machining operation can be applied to the part to reduce its surface roughness. Machine marks are less evident but still visible.
All plastics and metals
Uniform matte of raw material color
Bead Blasting
Bead blasting adds a uniform matte or satin surface finish on a machined part, removing the tool marks. This is used mainly for visual purposes and comes in several different grits which indicate the size of the bombarding pellets.
All metals
Uniform matte of raw material color
Powder Coating
Powder coating is a strong, wear-resistant finish that is compatible with all metal materials and can be combined with a bead blasting to create parts with smooth and uniform surfaces and excellent corrosion resistance.
All metals
Black or any RAL code or Pantone number
Anodizing Color(Type II)
Type II anodizing is mainly used to produce parts with a uniform, aesthetically pleasing surface and provides good corrosion and limited wear resistance.
Aluminum alloys
Black, clear or any RAL code or Pantone number
Anodizing Hardcoat(Type III)
Type III anodizing provides excellent corrosion and wear resistance, suitable for functional applications.
Aluminum alloys
Black or clear
Electropolishing
Electropolishing is an electrochemical process used to polish, passivate and deburr metal parts. It is useful to reduce surface roughness.
All metals
Natural metal color
Black Oxide
Black oxide is a conversion coating used to improve corrosion resistance and minimize light reflection.
Stainless steel and copper alloys
Black
Chromate Conversion Coating (Alodine/Chemfilm)
Chromate conversion coating is used to increase the corrosion resistance of metal alloys while maintaining their conductive properties.
Aluminum and copper alloys
Clear or yellow
Brushing
Brushing is produced by polishing the metal with grit resulting in a unidirectional satin finish. Not advisable for applications where corrosion resistance is required.
All metals
Natural metal color

Advantages of Custom CNC Machining
Types of CNC Operations
CNC machining operation services by Zhongde, a professional manufacturer in China, mainly include CNC milling for rough machining, turning for rotating surfaces, drilling for machining holes, planing for straight-shaped surfaces, and grinding for the cylindrical surface.
- CNC Milling Service: Milling is mainly used for rough machining and semi-finish machining of various planes, various grooves, etc.
- CNC Turning: Turning is a method of cutting the rotating surface of a workpiece on a lathe with a turning tool.
- CNC Drilling: Drilling refers to the method used to machine holes. The drilling tool moves relative to the workpiece and feeds axially.
- CNC Planing: Planning is a method of cutting on a planing machine using a planer and is mainly used to process straight-shaped surfaces.
- CNC Grinding: Grinding is mainly used for finishing the inner and outer cylindrical surfaces, inner and outer conical surfaces, and planes, and forming surfaces of parts to obtain higher dimensional accuracy and smaller surface roughness.
