CNC Vertical Milling

Equipped with a 33.75X18.75X23 inch work envelope and a 2000 pound bed capacity, we pride ourselves on using only the most advanced CNC and traditional milling machinery.  Upholding a (+/-) .001 of an inch precision tolerance, our cutting edge equipment allows for variable spindle speeds, coolant systems, and power-operated table speed capabilities. And we also offer several varieties of cutters that are able to process an extensive range of materials, such as high speed aluminum and plastic machining, as well as fiberglass and other composite substances.

We work with a wide variety of CNC and traditional milling machinery including vertical, planer, and knee-type. Offering top-notch CNC and traditional vertical milling operations on all short-run production volumes, we invite you to contact our company for further information.

Process Description   Milling is a material removal process in which unwanted material are cut away to create a variety of features on a part. Flat, curved, or irregular surfaces are fed against a rotating cutter containing a number of cutting edges.  A vertical milling machine orients the cutter vertically.
