CNC Machining

At Anco Precision Inc., we take pride in our leading role within the CNC machining sector. With an unwavering commitment to precision, our family-owned business leverages over four decades of industry experience to serve a vast array of sectors. CNC machining, particularly CNC milling, stands at the core of our operations, enabling us to deliver products that meet the exacting standards of industries as diverse as aerospace, automotive, and medical.

Types of Milling Machines

Vertical and Horizontal Mills: Our shop is equipped with both vertical and horizontal milling machines. The vertical mill’s spindle axis is aligned in a vertical orientation, making it well-suited for plunge cuts and drilling, while the horizontal mill provides the advantage of removing material from the side of a workpiece.

Universal Mills: We also utilize universal mills which can operate both vertically and horizontally, providing us with the flexibility to tackle complex parts.

Milling Process

The milling process involves the use of rotary cutters to remove material from a workpiece. This process is highly versatile and can be used to produce a wide range of shapes. Our experienced machinists carefully select cutting speeds, feed rates, and milling cutters to ensure precision and efficiency.

Metal Cutting Tools

We employ a variety of metal cutting tools, each chosen for its ability to deliver precise cuts and desired finishes on different materials. Our tools range from end mills and chamfer mills to thread mills and face mills, ensuring that we can execute a wide array of milling operations.

CNC Milling Software

Our state-of-the-art CNC milling machines are powered by advanced software that enables us to achieve incredible accuracy. These software programs allow for precise control over the milling process, facilitating the production of parts with complex geometries and tight tolerances.
