Conventional machining is one of the oldest types of machining processes ever used in history. In fact, it was the only type of machining used before the emergence of CNC machines. It heavily relies on human labor since the machines used are manual in operation. Therefore why use conventional machining instead of automated machining? Well, a good number custom machine parts Toronto usually have complex designs that can hardly be achieved through automated machining. This calls for human supervision during the whole machining process since some cuts made require the use of hand tools and complex alignment of machining tools. Also, conventional machining is much cheaper where one or a few pieces are to be produced.
CNC machining is most appropriate for the production of numerous custom machine parts Toronto. The production process is fully automated and the machine requires minimal human supervision. Once the machine is set up, it can machine thousands of pieces without interruption within the shortest time possible. This makes CNC machining the most appropriate form of production for mass production of simple custom parts. Some of the advantages of CNC machining of parts include achievement of very high tolerances, time and cost saving and convenience during the production process.
