Polissage

al6061 polished ra0.8
Le polissage permet d'obtenir une finition très brillante, en réduisant la rugosité de la surface et en améliorant l'aspect esthétique des métaux.
Le sablage consiste à projeter du sable sous pression ou d’autres matériaux pour nettoyer et texturer la surface, ce qui permet d’obtenir une finition mate et uniforme.
Le polissage au tonneau lisse et polit les petites pièces par frottement et abrasion à l'intérieur d'un tonneau, ce qui permet d'obtenir une finition uniforme mais légèrement texturée.
L'électropolissage est un procédé chimique qui permet de lisser et de faire briller les surfaces tout en améliorant leur résistance à la corrosion.
Le revêtement Alodine assure une protection contre la corrosion et améliore l'adhérence de la peinture ; il est principalement utilisé sur les surfaces en aluminium.
Le traitement thermique modifie les propriétés mécaniques du métal afin d'augmenter sa dureté, sa résistance ou sa ductilité.
Une finition brossée crée une texture satinée unidirectionnelle, ce qui atténue l'aspect des marques et des rayures à la surface.
Le thermolaquage permet d'appliquer une couche épaisse et résistante à l'usure, offrant un large choix de couleurs et de textures, et adaptée à une grande variété de surfaces.
La galvanoplastie permet de déposer une fine couche de métal sur des pièces, ce qui améliore leur résistance à l'usure, leur résistance à la corrosion et la conductivité de leur surface.
L'oxydation noire est un revêtement de conversion destiné aux métaux ferreux qui améliore la résistance à la corrosion et réduit au minimum la réflexion de la lumière.

CNC Routing FAQs

CNC routing is a computer-controlled cutting process used to shape, engrave, and machine sheet materials such as wood, plastic, foam, composites, and aluminum. CNC routing is commonly used for signage, furniture panels, architectural components, industrial enclosures, and custom display fabrication.

A CNC routing operation uses programmed toolpaths to cut, drill, engrave, or contour materials with high speed and repeatability. Common routing operations include profile cutting, pocketing, engraving, edge trimming, and panel machining.

  • The price of CNC routing services varies based on:

    • Material selection
    • Panel dimensions
    • Thickness
    • Cutting complexity
    • Production volume
    • Surface and edge finish requirements

    Simple routed panels may cost significantly less than precision-routed acrylic displays or large composite assemblies. Batch production and optimized nesting can also help reduce manufacturing costs.

CNC routing is typically used for large-format panels, lightweight materials, and faster sheet processing, while CNC milling is better suited for high-precision metal parts and deep-feature machining.

CNC routing is commonly preferred for:

  • Signage
  • Furniture panels
  • Acrylic displays
  • Foam fabrication
  • Composite sheet cutting

CNC milling is ideal for complex geometries, slots, pockets, and contours, while CNC turning is best suited for cylindrical parts such as shafts and bushings.

If your part includes both rotational and prismatic features, combining milling and turning may be the most efficient solution.

Lead times for CNC routing services depend on material type, part complexity, quantity, and finishing requirements. Standard projects can often be completed within a few business days.

In CNC milling, tool offset refers to the adjustment made to account for the tool’s dimensions—specifically its length and diameter—during the machining process. These offsets ensure that the cutting tool operates with precision relative to the workpiece. By accurately setting tool offsets, a machinist can determine the correct starting point for machining, ensuring that the part is cut to the exact specifications required. Proper tool offsets are crucial for achieving accurate and consistent results in CNC milling operations.

Key advantages of CNC routing include:

  • Fast cutting speeds
  • Large-format panel processing
  • Cost-efficient sheet fabrication
  • Smooth contour cutting
  • Multi-material compatibility
  • Scalable production capability
The best materials for CNC routing depend on the application, required edge quality, durability, and production cost. Common routing materials include acrylic, MDF, plywood, PVC, HDPE, foam boards, composite panels, and aluminum sheets.

CNC routing is better for thick sheets, large panels, wood, plastics, and composite materials. It physically cuts material using rotating tools, making it ideal for structural panels and deep cuts. Laser cutting is more suitable for thin materials and applications requiring extremely fine detail or high-speed sheet cutting.

CNC routing is commonly used for plastics, wood, foam, and lightweight panels where clean edges and cost efficiency are important. Waterjet cutting is better for thick metals and heat-sensitive materials because it uses high-pressure water instead of cutting tools or heat.
