CNC Small Batch Stainless Steel Machining Process Explained

As a professional CNC small batch stainless steel machining service provider, EMAR Technologies specializes in delivering precision components with tight tolerances for industries ranging from aerospace to medical devices. This article will explore the technical nuances of machining stainless steel in small batches while highlighting our competitive advantages.

Why Choose CNC for Small Batch Stainless Steel Parts?

Stainless steel's work-hardening characteristics demand advanced CNC Machining expertise. Our 5-axis CNC centers equipped with coolant-through spindles maintain optimal cutting temperatures, preventing material deformation during small batch production (1-500 pieces). The process offers:

• ±.005mm repeatability across batches
• Surface finishes down to Ra .4μm
• Material flexibility (304, 316, 17-4PH, etc.)

Key Process Considerations

Our technicians implement specialized toolpaths and cutting parameters to address stainless steel's unique challenges:

1. Tool Selection: Premium carbide end mills with TiAlN coatings
2. Cutting Strategy: Trochoidal milling for heat dissipation
3. Quality Control: In-process CMM verification
