FAQs

What is CNC turning, and how does Parish Engineering use it?

CNC turning is a machining process in which a rotating workpiece is fed into a cutting tool to remove material, creating precise cylindrical parts. Parish Engineering uses CNC turning to produce high-precision components for industries such as aerospace, automotive, and defence, ensuring tight tolerances and excellent surface finishes.

What types of components can be created using CNC turning?

CNC turning is ideal for manufacturing cylindrical components such as shafts, bushings, sleeves, and pins. It is also used for producing complex geometries such as threads, grooves, and tapered features.

What materials can Parish Engineering work with for CNC turning?

We can work with a wide range of materials, including mild steel, stainless steel (including duplex and Stellite), brass, bronze, copper, aluminium, plastics, titanium, tool steels, and high-speed steels.

What is the precision of a CNC lathe?

CNC lathes are capable of achieving tolerances as tight as ±0.01mm, depending on the complexity of the part and material. Our advanced CNC turning equipment ensures high-precision results.

How accurate is a CNC turning machine?

A CNC turning machine is highly accurate, with the ability to produce parts with exceptional dimensional accuracy. The precision is typically within a few microns, making CNC turning ideal for producing critical components.

What are the CNC turning tolerances?

CNC turning can achieve tolerances of ±0.01mm (10 microns) or better, depending on the specific requirements of the part and the material being used.
