CNC Milling for High-Speed Machining at Deerfield Machine Parts
 
Deerfield Machine Parts (DMP), a leading job shop in New Jersey, utilizes Computer Numerical Control (CNC) to manufacture parts that precisely match customer specifications as well as assembly or subsystem requirements. As a contract machining company, DMP understands the necessity of accuracy as well as speed for maintaining an edge in today's market. CNC milling reduces the number of manual steps and simplifies the process of creating complex curves and 3D structures for precision and custom machined parts. Investing in CNC Milling has enabled DMP to perform production manufacturing for high-volume jobs as well as smaller runs at a competitive price and high quality.

What Does CNC Milling do for Production Manufacturing?

State-of-the-art CNC milling machines perform complex precision machining operations through relatively simple processes that include slot cutting, drilling, threading, milling, and more. With CNC machining, DMP has dramatically decreased the frequency of manual errors as well as the time required to alter a machine to produce specific parts. DMP's commitment to technology results in shorter runs and faster turnaround as well as greater flexibility in how a part is positioned during the machining process. Today, CNC milling operators use files created by CAM software, which allows assembly to run directly from design to manufacturing. The result is consistency in dimension, shape, and size for the entire job, regardless of volume.

How does CNC Milling Work?

As a milling technique, CNC functions via a design that is specified on a computer with CAD tools. This technique uses a computer program written in a notation called G-code. During CNC milling, the computer translates the design into instructions on how the drill needs to move to create desired shape. The drill moves up and down or can tilt at an angle, while the table typically moves the part laterally.

The language of computer numerical control specifies the movements that the drill and table must make. Because CNC technology utilizes advanced high performance software programs, a greater degree of accuracy is achieved. High spindle speed serves two advantages: First, CNC milling provides shorter production times due to fast digital servo control and high spindle speeds as well as optimum tools and accessories. Second, through a precision drive system and high frequency spindle speeds, these centers are ideal for high-speed machining.

With CNC automation, Deerfield Machine Parts is capable of producing both large and small volumes of high-quality CNC milled parts for customers in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Delaware. CNC technology has allowed DMP to produce parts for industries that include automotive, agriculture, and government. We are constantly evaluating the latest technology and purchasing the best equipment to keep our production processes as up-to-date as possible.
