What Does ‘Break All Sharp Edges’ Mean on a CNC Machining Drawing?

What Does ‘Break All Sharp Edges’ Mean on a CNC Machining Drawing?

by admin | Aug 25, 2026 | CNC Machining

“Break all sharp edges” is one of those engineering drawing instructions that appears simple until someone has to decide exactly what it means. For a CNC machining supplier, the intention is usually clear: finished components should not be supplied with unwanted burrs...
CNC Machined Threaded Holes: Depth, Fit and Inspection Explained

CNC Machined Threaded Holes: Depth, Fit and Inspection Explained

by admin | Aug 16, 2026 | CNC Machining

Threaded holes are among the most common features found on CNC-machined components. They may be used to attach covers, secure assemblies, locate brackets, mount electronic equipment or connect one precision-machined part to another. Although a tapped hole can look...
CNC Machining Internal Corner Radius: Why Cutter Size Matters to Cost and Lead Time

CNC Machining Internal Corner Radius: Why Cutter Size Matters to Cost and Lead Time

by admin | Aug 11, 2026 | CNC Machining

Internal corner radii can appear to be a relatively minor detail on a CNC-machined component. In practice, they can influence tool selection, machining strategy, cycle time, surface finish and manufacturing cost. The reason is simple: a rotating milling cutter is...
Thin Wall CNC Machining Components: How to Control Distortion and Maintain Tolerances

Thin Wall CNC Machining Components: How to Control Distortion and Maintain Tolerances

by admin | Aug 4, 2026 | CNC Machining

Thin-walled components can look relatively straightforward on an engineering drawing. In practice, however, removing material from a component until only thin sections remain can create some of the more challenging conditions encountered in precision CNC machining. As...

Inside the Part: CNC Machined Aluminium Box for Marine Safety Applications

by admin | Jul 29, 2026 | CNC Machining, Inside the Part

Marine safety equipment often depends on robust, reliable and carefully controlled components. Housings, boxes and enclosures may look straightforward from the outside, but when they are used in demanding environments, the manufacturing requirements can be much more...
Aerospace Design for Manufacture: A Practical Guide to Machined Components

Aerospace Design for Manufacture: A Practical Guide to Machined Components

by admin | Jul 10, 2026 | CNC Machining, Precision Engineering

Aerospace design for manufacture is the process of developing components that meet their functional, safety and performance requirements while also being practical to machine, inspect, finish and reproduce. It brings manufacturing knowledge into the design stage so...
