What exactly is computer-numerical-controlled (CNC) machining? It’s a means to make parts by removing material via high-speed, precision robotic machines that use an array of cutting tools to create ...

3D printing and CNC milling could go hand-in-hand for rapid prototyping in electronics. Recently, Machine Design published "Who’s Who in 3D Printing Electronics," which covered various entities using ...

Today, milling machines are recognized as an integral part of the process for achieving quality pavement performance standards. Take a look at the journey these units have taken over the last 25 years ...

Modern milling machines look much the same as they did 30 years ago. However, they now must cut superalloys, titanium, and high-tensile steels to closer tolerances and at faster rates than before. To ...

The three-piece milled swing arm Autodesk created through generative design saves 8% of mass compared to the original die-cast part. Lightning Motors says the revised swing arm should increase the ...

We recently gave you some tips on purchasing your first milling machine, but what we didn’t touch on was CNC (Computer Numerical Control) systems for milling machines (or other machines, like lathes).

Cat's PM-465 has simplified grade and slope control system that provides three operating menus. On-board electronics also regulate speed, steering and rotor drive, plus self-diagnostics. Milling ...

The market for milling machines is on the upswing, not because of hope for a magical federal infrastructure package, but because of local efforts to shore up aging pavements. A relatively small amount ...

There are no shortage of CNC machines in the DIY space these days, but sometimes you just need to do things your own way. That’s what [Chris Borges] decided when he put together this rock-solid, ...
