Drilling<\/h3>\n<p>Drilling is one of the most common processes in machining. Using <strong>a rotating<\/strong> <strong>milling cutter<\/strong> or <strong>drill <\/strong>(or <strong>centre bit<\/strong>), a cylindrical hole is produced in the material. This is part drilled (blind hole) or right through with a higher or lower level of precision depending on the tool used.

Milling<\/h3>\n<p>Milling consists in producing a shape on a mechanical part by removing material. The principle is <strong>the combination of a rotating milling cutter, mounted on a milling machine that advances the part to be worked<\/strong>. Various shapes are possible such as cylindrical holes, grooves or other more complex shapes. This technique is often complementary to turning.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2195&#8243; img_size=&#8221;500&#215;500&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1628174865499{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Turning&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;turning&#8221;][vc_row_inner gap=&#8221;10&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-transform: none; letter-spacing: 0;\">03. Turning<\/h3>\n<p>As with milling, turning consists in removing material from a part, in the form of turnings. <strong>The part to be worked is fixed to a rotating shaft<\/strong>. The cutting tool is then advanced to produce <strong>the desired cylindrical or conical shape<\/strong>. This technique is often complementary to milling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cutting <\/strong>is a variant of turning where the parts are machined from metal bars, in small, medium or large runs by automated turning.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2190&#8243; img_size=&#8221;500&#215;500&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1628174897029{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;5-axis CNC&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;cnc&#8221;][vc_row_inner gap=&#8221;10&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-transform: none; letter-spacing: 0;\">04. Combined turning-milling (5-axis CNC)<\/h3>\n<p><strong>5-axis<\/strong> <strong>machining <\/strong>makes it very easy to <strong>produce<\/strong> <strong>complex parts<\/strong>. A 5-axis multidirectional machine tool (combining 3 linear axes and 2 rotating axes moving simultaneously) is capable of cutting on the whole surface of the part to be machined, combining the techniques of milling and turning.<\/p>\n<p>This combination saves time by avoiding the removal or changing of tools. In addition, repositioning with the associated risk of errors is avoided.<\/p>\n<p>The tightest precision, of the order of \u00b5m, is obtained by 5-axis milling by micro-erosion.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2190&#8243; img_size=&#8221;500&#215;500&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1628174897029{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Laser cutting&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;laser&#8221;][vc_row_inner gap=&#8221;10&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-transform: none; letter-spacing: 0;\">05. Laser cutting<\/h3>\n<p>A large amount of energy, in the form of a <strong>powerful<\/strong> <strong>laser<\/strong>, is beamed onto a small area of the material to be cut. <strong>The material in contact is then fused by the heat<\/strong> focussed on it, which causes cutting. This technique, used in various sectors of industry is suitable for thin materials and allows cutting of various materials giving precise cutting results.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2190&#8243; img_size=&#8221;500&#215;500&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1628174897029{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Other techniques&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;other&#8221;][vc_row_inner gap=&#8221;10&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-transform: none; letter-spacing: 0;\">06.
