Flange Plate CNC Machining Process

Understanding Flange Plate CNC Machining

Flange plate CNC machining is a precision manufacturing process that utilizes computer numerical control (CNC) technology to create high-quality flange components. As a critical connection element in piping systems, flanges require exceptional dimensional accuracy and surface finish, which CNC machining can consistently deliver.

Key Steps in the Flange CNC Machining Process

Our CNC machining process for flange plates follows these essential steps:

Material Selection: Choosing appropriate metal alloys (stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, etc.)

CNC Programming: Creating precise tool paths using CAD/CAM software

Facing Operation: Achieving perfect flatness on mounting surfaces

Bore Machining: Creating accurate center holes with tight tolerances

Bolt Hole Drilling: Positioning and drilling mounting holes with CNC precision

Surface Finishing: Applying required surface treatments (anodizing, plating, etc.)
