Stainless Steel CNC Machining

Custom CNC machining is a versatile process that can be used to shape many different types of material. One critical industrial material that is commonly CNC machined is stainless steel. Stainless steel parts are used in a variety of products and are integral to many different industries. At Schantz Machine and Fabrication, stainless steel CNC machining can be done at a small or large scale, depending on the requirements of the client. From our Design for Manufacturing (DFM) services to precisely cut parts, it’s never been easier to get your project off the ground.

Overview of the Process

Stainless steel CNC machining is largely similar to other CNC machining processes. A machinist begins with a CAD file, which is converted to G-code, a format that the CNC machinery can understand and utilize. Next, the CNC machinery is prepared for production. The proper tools are affixed to their corresponding parts, and the machinist completes a dry run to ensure all the components are functioning in the way they’re intended to. Finally, a stainless steel blank is inserted, and the CNC machinery begins cutting and shaping the blank into the desired part. Under close supervision, this process is repeated until the order has been met.
