Milling is the term used for a machining process using rotary cutters to remove material from a work piece by moving in a direction at an angle with the axis of the tool. It covers a wide variety of different operations and machines on scales from small individual parts to large heavy-duty gang milling operations. Here in WKW Precision we have the technology and machinery available to complete your requirement in a precise, efficient manner with a swift turnaround.
Milling can be carried out on our wide range of milling machines. After the arrival of Computer Numerical Control (C.N.C.), milling machines quickly became machining centres, generally classified as Vertical Machining Centres (V.M.C.) and Horizontal Machining Centres (H.M.C.).
Turning is another process for machining metal. Carried out on a lathe, WKW Precision has years of experience in this field of precision engineering. Usually its operation is for the removal of metal from a cylindrical workpiece that will reduce the size of the diameter to a very high tolerance leaving a very smooth finish.
