CNC Turning Services

Our fast, precise CNC turning services include the provision of extensive guidance and support to clients from the beginning up until the completion of parts in our CNC machining center.

What Is CNC Turning?

CNC turning is the process of remove material from a rotating workpiece using the linear path of tools on a CNC lathe. In a simple perspective, the main elements involved in this process are the rotating spindle in which your work part is clamped and the cutting tool that is mounted on a turret.

Here at Sendot Technology’s CNC turning center, we are highly capable of producing complex and critically dimensioned custom parts through our CNC lathes, providing high-quality CNC turned parts in metal or plastic for rapid prototyping or low volume production.

Why Choose CNC Turning?

Parts with rotary surfaces that require precision machining
CNC turning is the right process if your parts require controlled concentricity, stable runout, and accurate threaded profiles.

Automated and cost-effective
CNC lathes are highly automated, providing efficient products that can reduce labor; CNC turning is highly scalable and that makes this process adaptable to both low and high volume production without that much cost.

Multiple compatible metals and plastic materials
CNC turned parts can be made from an exceptionally wide range of metal and plastic materials. For example, metals include aluminum, steel, stainless steel, brass, copper, magnesium alloy, titanium alloy, etc., as well as plastics ABS, POM, PEEK, acrylic, nylon, etc.

CNC mill-turn lathe provides multi-tasking capability
Multi-axis CNC turning centers and mill-turn lathes allow for multiple processes and multi-step machining operations on a single machine, making them a cost-effective option for complex geometries.

Turning things for the Better

A typical CNC lathe has one spindle equipped with a chuck to clamp and revolve the part at the required cutting speed. However, you can’t machine the area of the part that is held by the chuck. So, a turning lathe with two spindles on the opposite sides was developed. Basically, once the first side of the part is complete, the second spindle mounted with a chuck moves toward the first spindle and takes the part from it. That way, there is no need to stop the program, open the safety door, reset the part manually.
Our CNC machining center always has a way to make things better for you by continuously providing you brilliant solutions from our experienced technical team.

Basic Types of CNC Turning Processes

The process range of CNC turning is very wide, which can be processed various types of rotary surfaces, such as external turning, internal turning, taper turning, parting, facing, boring, reaming, drilling, knurling, threading, grooving, etc.

O.D. and I.D. Turning – For machining precise cylindrical features. For machining precise cylindrical features. Turned parts can continue to be machined in depth, with visible tool marks (Tool used: General turning tool)
Parting and Grooving – For parting off, or cutting a “groove” profile in either the internal or external part of a part (Tool used: Parting and grooving inserts)
Facing – Flattening the face of the workpiece (Tool used: Facing tool)
Boring and Reaming – Enlarging or finishing of existing holes to obtain highly accurate diameters (Tool used: Boring and reaming tools)
Drilling – Remove materials to drill holes from the inside of a workpiece (Tool used: Drills)
Threading – Machining of threads by turning, may be done in either the internal or external area of the workpiece. (Tool used: Threading tools)

Applications of CNC Turning Services and Parts

Prototype CNC Machining
Prove and refine designs by verifying engineering-grade materials, complex geometries, tight tolerances, and testing components for suitability and manufacturability.

Custom Parts Manufacturing
Production-grade CNC turned parts custom-made to specific specifications and needs, meeting high precision and quality, as well as on-time delivery and cost effectiveness. Our subtractive manufacturing method provide CNC machined parts having particular form that also are highly use in medical devices with low cost.

Rapid Tooling Mold
Mold manufacturing requires considerable metalworking skills, including rapid machining as well as advanced cutting in different types of aluminum and steel, used to quickly create molds and fixtures.

By automating the machining process, our CNC turning service & other services provide a faster, more cost-effective way to manufacture highly accurate prototypes and end-use parts.

Frequently asked questions

CNC turning explained — how does it work?

The workpiece is held in a chuck or collet and spun at speed while a stationary cutting tool is fed against it, removing material to produce a round profile. Because the part rotates about one axis, turning naturally produces concentric features — diameters, tapers, threads and grooves — far faster and more accurately than milling the same shape.

Do you offer CNC turning and milling on the same part?

Yes. Mill-turn machines with live tooling perform both in one clamping: the diameters are turned, then driven tools cut flats, cross-holes and slots without releasing the part. That keeps the milled features referenced to the turned axis, which a separate milling setup cannot guarantee.

What tolerance can you hold on turned parts?

±0.05 mm on critical features, with tighter control on specific dimensions confirmed at quotation. Concentricity and runout between turned features are held by completing them in one clamping wherever the geometry allows.

What is the minimum order for CNC turned parts?

None. A single turned prototype is a valid order and the same setup scales to low-volume production. Samples typically run 3–5 working days.

Which materials do you turn?

Alloy and stainless steel, aluminium, brass, titanium and engineering plastics such as POM, PEEK and PTFE — 30+ materials in total. Tell us the duty and we will suggest options in the DFM review.
