CNC machining provides a high efficiency process with high quality, But If you do not make a correctly design and arrangement for the processing, it won’t be done well. If the processing is arranged wrongly, it may occur disorder and unreasonable problem. Ruiyi is a professional rapid prototyping with over 10 years’ experience, configuring kinds of CNC machines. Though many year’s development, we have been summarized following tips, what are the principles for CNC machining sequence? Let’s share the knowledge to you on this blog.
One,For the critical surface, the precise benchmark should be taking an adjustment before machining, so that to ensure the processing accuracy are met.
two,After the precise benchmark is processed, then it is going on roughing, semi-finishing and finishing for the main surface with high precise requirement. the surface requiring higher precise even have to polishing.
three,“Benchmark first”, The surface requiring high precision should be machined at the initial stage of process because the other surfaces are fixed position by it in the later process.
four,When machining a precise benchmark surface, It is required to fix position by rough benchmark, During single part, small batch even mass production, The part with more complex feature or larger size, as well as
the workpiece with lager dimensional errors, It should be arranged to scribing process before mechanical processing, so that it will provide positive benchmark for precise benchmark.
Fives,For the processes that are prone to waste, the finishing and polishing can be placed in the earlier processing, and the secondary surfaces can be placed in the late processing.

FAQ:
CNC machining is a high-efficiency, high-quality manufacturing process. However, if the design and machining sequence are not correctly arranged, it can cause errors, disorder, and quality issues in the final product.
It means that surfaces requiring high precision should be machined early in the process. These precise surfaces serve as reference points for positioning during subsequent machining steps.
Adjusting the benchmark before machining ensures that the final dimensions and tolerances meet design requirements, improving accuracy and reducing errors.
After the benchmark is set, the process typically follows roughing, semi-finishing, and finishing. For extremely high-precision surfaces, polishing may also be required.
For large, complex, or dimensionally inaccurate workpieces, scribing before mechanical machining helps create a reliable reference point for precise machining.
Not always. For processes prone to defects or material waste, finishing and polishing can be done earlier to ensure critical surfaces are completed before moving to secondary features.
