What Industries Use Precision CNC Machining Parts?

Dec 03, 2021

For parts and components with tight tolerances and specific requirements, the accuracy and precision of CNC machining are very necessary. Different types of parts produced by precision NC machining process cover the following industries.

Medical Industry

Benefits of CNC machines in the medical field include the rapid creation of customized parts.
Due to the variety of materials and devices available, those in the medical field can have a wide range of parts created through CNC machining, including:
  • Implants
  • Orthotic devices
  • Electronic enclosures for monitoring devices
  • Research equipment
  • Shielded enclosures
  • MRI machines
  • Electrical parts
  • Pieces made from high-temperature plastics
  • Medical instruments

Aerospace Industry

CNC machining for the aerospace and aviation industries must meet these high precision requirements. Machinists must create such tolerances with the extra-durable materials required of the industry, such as titanium, aluminum, nickel, alloys, plastics and more. The materials used will depend on the parts created and the properties desired from that component.

Parts made for the aerospace and aviation industry include several components of aircraft and the devices that service them, including:
  • Manifolds
  • Bushings
  • Airfoils
  • Landing gear parts
  • Electrical connectors
  • Antennae
  • Radiofrequency suppression materials
By embracing CNC machining for creating components, the aerospace industry gets the customized parts it needs with the extremely tight tolerances required. 

Transportation Industry

The transportation sector requires long-lasting, robust components that can haul cargo across the country. Parts the transportation industry may need CNC machines to construct include those used on its various vehicles, such as:
  • Shipping vessels
  • Freight trains
  • Passenger rail
  • Passenger vehicles
  • And others
During use in high-speed trains, the high speeds put extra strain on the vehicles, requiring even better precision in the fitment of the parts used on the train cars and engine.

Electronics Industry

Electronics is another industry that relies heavily on small part machining and close tolerance machining. Examples of the types of parts produced for the electronics industry include those for consumer electronics, circuit boards, heat sinks, semiconductor components, and various small precision components. 

Automotive Industry
The automotive industry uses precision CNC machining processes to produce different types of OEM parts for automobiles, including engine parts, headlights, interior panels, drive axels and more.

Communications Industry
Small part machining and close tolerance machining are used to produce parts for communications and telecommunications systems (i.e. antennas, panel frames, shielding, etc.) as well as associated devices (i.e. modems, routers, mobile phones, switches, etc.) When it comes to contract manufacturing and prototypes to production manufacturing.
