Surface Finishes for CNC Milling

CNC milling parts are left as-milled, and surface finish can change the appearance, surface roughness, hardness and chemical resistance of the produced parts. Determined by the material using, a part can have one to serval available surface finishing options. Learn more at our surface finish page.

Anodizing changes the surface state and performance of the material, thus improving corrosion resistance, enhancing wear resistance and hardness, and protecting the metal surface.

CNC Milling Design Recommendations

The table below summarizes some basic guidelines in the design of CNC milling. Following these recommendations can greatly benefit the production efficiency and reduce cost. Learn more about CNC design guides.

Recommended: ⅓ times cavity depth (or larger)

By ultilizing the recommended value for internal corner radii, it is sure that a suitable diameter tool is available and aligns with the guidelines for the recommended cavity depth.

Internal Edges Image

Recommended: 0.8 mm (metals), 1.5 mm (plastics)

The less wall thickness, the less material stiffness. It will lead to the vibrations during machining and lower accuracy. We recommend you use even larger minimum wall thickness for plastics.

Thin Walls Image

Recommended Diameter: standard drill bit sizes

Recommended Depth: 4 - 40 times nominal diameter

The tools used for drilling holes are either drill bit or end mill tool. For high accuracy holes smaller than ⌀20 mm, using a standard diameter is recommended.

Holes Image

Recommended size: M6 or larger

Recommended length: 3 times nominal diameter

Threads are divided into internal and external ones. Internal threads are cut with taps, while external threads with dies. Taps and dies can be used to cut threads down to M2. CNC threading tools are common and they are preferred, as they limit the risk of tap breakage.
