CNC Machining Services
Machining Capabilities
When precision and speed are important, computer numerical control (CNC) machining is an ideal method for everything from prototyping to high-volume production machining. The process offers material flexibility, as it’s compatible with numerous metals as well as non-metallic materials like plastic. Using computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) software, manufacturers convert a part’s design into digital instructions that automated CNC equipment will follow to achieve a precision machined part.
CNC equipment and tooling will carry out milling, turning, grinding, cutting, and other subtractive machining techniques with minimal human intervention to quickly generate repeatable, high-quality components of simple or complex designs. At Grob Inc., we offer an array of CNC machining services to meet your exact product specifications and application requirements.
Types of CNC Machining
CNC machining is made up of many different subtractive machining processes for shaping a workpiece and creating a precision part in less time than it takes to machine products manually. Unlike manual machines, CNC machining gives us the opportunity to utilize automation in our processes, achieve tighter tolerances, improve surface finishes, adjust tools faster, utilize labor more efficiently and effectively, and increase the speeds & feeds on individual tools to reduce cycle times.
Common CNC-Machined Parts
CNC machining is made up of many different subtractive machining processes for shaping a workpiece, creating a precision part in less time than it takes to machine products manually.
Gear blanks
At the beginning of gear manufacturing operations, the process first generates gear blanks.
Prior to heat treatments like broaching and hobbling, these blanks provide the input or
initial product for gear production and affect the level of precision you can achieve in your gears.
Pulleys
These widely used wheels have applications across industries, from industrial machinery and agriculture to material handling and conveyance. Machined with a groove to allow for belt placement around their circumference, pulleys facilitate heavy lifting and moving operations as they turn.
Spline Shafts
Usually connecting to a broached sleeve, our yoke allows for linear power transfer found in many machines, vehicles, and heavy equipment.It ensures precise alignment and durability under high load conditions.
Yokes
Yokes serve as connectors between a driveshaft and components like the transfer case. In vehicles, they transfer power from the case to the shaft by slipping into and out of the transfer case, giving a driveshaft the flex necessary to manage varying or rough road conditions allows for changes in angle.
Broached Couplers
Allows for sliding or fixed positions on a spline shaft to transfer rotating power.
