How CNC cutting works
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) cutting is a manufacturing process that utilises computer software to dictate the movement of our CNC router machine. This automated process allows for precise and efficient cutting of various materials.
Here's a step-by-step explanation of how CNC cutting works:
Design
Our team creates a design using specialised software, taking into account the material and desired outcome.
Programming The design is then translated into a programme that the CNC machine can understand.
Material Loading The chosen material is loaded onto the CNC machine's bed, ensuring proper alignment and securement.
Cutting The CNC machine reads the programme and begins cutting the material according to the design specifications.
Finishing Once the cutting process is finished, our team inspects and finishes the product as needed, ensuring a high-quality final result.
By utilising CNC cutting technology, we can produce complex shapes, intricate designs, and tight tolerances with ease, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of applications.
The benefits of CNC cutting
As well as offering accuracy and precision, with the ability to produce complex shapes and design, the benefits of CNC cutting include:
Increased efficiency: Increased production speed, scalability, and ability to run the machine 24/7 if required makes the process more efficient.
Automated process: The machine continues cutting until the design is complete and automation eliminates human error.
Consistent quality: Using a CNC cutter gives you 99% accuracy when it comes to finish. We can't guarantee that every piece is 100% identical as there are always natural variations.
Safety: This process is safer than manually operated machines, with minimal operator intervention.
Cost-effectiveness: CNC cutting reduces errors, waste, and labour costs.
Find the perfect material match for your application
We offer a range of materials to suit your needs, each with its unique advantages and disadvantages. Our team can help you choose the best material for your project:
ACM (Aluminum Composite Material)
Lightweight and rigid, ACM is perfect for outdoor signage and displays.
Signex
Specifically designed for signage and displays, Signex is easy to cut and shape but has limited durability compared to other materials.
Aluminium
With its high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance, aluminium is ideal for durable and long-lasting applications.
Plywood
Cost-effective and easy to work with, plywood is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications.
Acrylic
High transparency and clarity make acrylic perfect for indoor and outdoor displays.
If you're not sure what material to use, we can discuss the options and what would be best for your project. We can supply the material you wish to use or you can supply it.
