CNC Milling and Turning – The Art of Precision
Manufacturing is an extremely multifaceted industry, whose pulse can be felt within a wide array of fields.
At the center of this buzzing hub are engineers who are integral to creating not only product form but function.
They are the nuts and bolts of a complex mechanism that could not exist without them and for this reason we can effectively call them industrial artists.
Indeed, it takes a certain amount of skill and creativity to hone quality components for such a diverse, vibrant industry. Among the artisans that grace the trade are CNC engineers, the best of whom recognize that they bring a fine tuned skill to manufacture related projects.
What is a CNC Engineer?
A CNC engineer is well versed on the specifics of CNC machinery and is educated regarding the analyzing of computer numerical control programs/databases. CNC engineers are also largely responsible for testing and or repairing complex machinery so that it remains in tip top shape. For this reason, CNC engineers are one of the primary reasons why products are crafted to exacting specs. In other words, they are an essential part of the precision team that develops products to work the way they are supposed to 100 percent of the time.
A CNC's duties may not end there, in fact, senior CNC engineers often train shop newbies, cluing them on the various ins and outs of a company’s processes and particular equipment. They could be required to remain up on the latest and greatest technologies via research as well as speak with potential clients who are interested in milling and machining services.
Because we are using the latest and greatest tech tools available, we can also promise top notch quality on time, every time. This of course, leads to long lasting business relationships, the life blood of any company, large or small.

Sub Categories of CNC Engineering
Because CNC engineering is such a specialized field, it splinters into a variety of sub groups with functions that are essential to ensuing a CNC Milling shop runs efficiently. The top tier positions within this group include, but are not limited to, CNC machinist, CNC programmer, CNC operator and the CNC setup person. These individuals largely hold degrees in mechanical engineering or CNC programming, and must possess the ability to be self motivators as well as team players.
CNC engineers can also be quality inspectors as they are best able to realize a project at the completion stage. This is where the precision craft truly establishes itself, as it is this final step that makes or breaks a products viability.
CNC Machining Post Production Values
CNC engineering polishes the final form of a design, looking it over for fatal flaws or aspects that could cause the end product to fail. It's here that a CNC machinist’s educational and skill comes into play, as it will take practiced eyes and expert hands to filter through the variables that can cause problems with a given item. Experienced CNC engineers comprehend the importance of their work and take the quality control aspect extremely seriously.
