How is CNC Used in Different Applications

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining automates the precise cutting, shaping, and finishing of materials for applications in aerospace, medical, automotive, and industrial manufacturing. Powered by advanced CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) software, CNC machining ensures precision, repeatability, and efficiency in every operation.

At Rototip, we leverage a suite of specialized CNC techniques, including Swiss machining, EDM cutting, and gear fabrication, to meet the most demanding manufacturing projects. These specialized processes allow us to create complex, high-performance components with exceptional accuracy, minimizing human error and optimizing production quality. Our expertise in these advanced machining methods and quality control allows us to serve diverse industries, providing solutions for critical applications where precision and reliability are required.

Swiss Machining

Swiss machining, also known as Swiss-type lathe machining, represents the high precision in CNC turning, particularly for small, complex components demanding tight tolerances and superior surface finishes. This specialized process distinguishes itself from conventional turning by employing a sliding headstock that precisely guides the workpiece close to the cutting tools, minimizing deflection and vibration even when machining slender or long parts, a critical advantage for achieving dimensional accuracy and preventing tool breakage.

Our expertise in Swiss machining allows us to manufacture intricate components with micron-level accuracy in a variety of materials, including stainless steel, titanium, and alloys. We specialize in serving industries such as medical, aerospace, electronics, and others where precision and reliability are the top priority.

Swiss lathe machines are often equipped with multiple tool turrets, live tooling, and sub-spindles, enabling complex, multi-axis machining operations in a single setup. This reduces handling time and further enhances precision, leading to improved productivity.

Electrical Discharge Machining

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM), a non-traditional machining process, uses the power of precisely controlled electrical sparks to remove material from a workpiece. EDM is ideal for machining extremely hard materials, intricate shapes, and delicate workpieces that would be challenging or impossible to machine with other machining methods. 

Our expertise in EDM allows us to machine a wide range of conductive materials, including hardened steels and titanium. This expertise, combined with an in-house quality control lab, offers tight tolerances and requirements.

There are several types of EDM;  Die-sinker EDM, also known as ram EDM, employs a shaped electrode, typically made of graphite or copper, to create a cavity or impression in the workpiece. The electrode, precisely shaped to the desired form, is gradually eroded by the sparks, replicating its shape into the workpiece. Wire EDM uses a thin, continuously moving wire as the electrode. The wire, guided by CNC controls, precisely cuts through the workpiece, creating intricate 2D shapes and profiles with exceptional accuracy. Die-sinker excels in creating complex 3D cavities and forms, while wire EDM is unmatched for cutting intricate contours, sharp corners, and narrow slots.

Gear Fabrication

Gear fabrication is a specialized manufacturing process including CNC gear hobbing, grinding, and shaping, allowing us to produce gears for performance across diverse industries.

We understand the interplay between hobbing, shaping, and grinding, allowing us to select the optimal combination of techniques to achieve the desired gear specifications working with a variety of materials, including alloy steels, stainless steels, and hardened tool steels.

Gear hobbing utilizes a rotating, multi-toothed cutting tool (the hob) to generate gear teeth on a cylindrical workpiece. The synchronized rotation of the hob and workpiece, combined with precise CNC control over feed rates and cutting depths, allows for the rapid and accurate production of a variety of gear types, including spur, helical, worm, spline, and even sprocket gears. Different from hobbing, gear shaping uses a reciprocating cutter for creating teeth, particularly advantageous for internal gears and complex geometries. Our CNC gear-shaping processes offer flexibility and precision. Grinding is to bring gear into the final shape and finish requirements for accuracy. Gear grinding removes minute amounts of material using specialized grinding wheels. Whether you need continuous gear grinding, bevel gear grinding, or single rib gear grinding, Rototip can offer alternatives for both function and finishing.
