CNC drilling and boring are critical processes for creating accurate holes, threads, and bores in components made from hard-to-machine materials. These processes ensure:
Dimensional accuracy for assembly and mating parts
High repeatability for aerospace and medical applications
Smooth surface finishes in holes and bores to meet functional requirements
At EadeTech, we specialize in challenging materials, where factors like low thermal conductivity, high hardness, and work hardening require advanced process planning. Our engineers optimize tool geometry, spindle speed, feed rate, and coolant strategy for each material.
