Internal radii should be at least 1/3 of the cavity depth. Use larger radii whenever possible.
Threads and Tapped Holes
Diameter Φ 1.5-5 mm, depth: 3 times the diameter.
Diameter Φ 5 mm or larger, depth: 4-6 times the diameter.
RapidDirect can produce threads of any specification and size as required by the customer.
A Robust Network of CNC Machine Shops
CNC machining begins with a computer design of a part. Machines then precisely remove material to turn the design into a real machined part. This cutting can be done from different angles using machines that have 3, 4, or 5 moving parts, known as axes.
At Futai, we have our own main CNC machine shop and a broad network of partner shops throughout China. Our facilities aren’t limited to just basic CNC machines. We also have grinders for smoothing surfaces, wire cutters for precise cuts, and EDM machines for detailed shapes. This variety allows us to tackle complex designs that produce unique CNC machined parts with specific requirements. Our skilled machinists work with exceptional accuracy, achieving tolerances as precise as 0.01mm. This level of detail is crucial for components that must fit perfectly into larger assemblies.
We also use automated production lines. These are setups where machines work together smoothly and quickly, which helps us produce large quantities faster and reduces the chance of errors. This efficiency means we can deliver quality machined parts quickly to meet our clients’ needs, keeping projects on schedule.

FAQs
CNC machining has a wide range of applications across industries.
- In the automotive and aerospace sectors, it is used to fabricate precise engine components, structural parts, and other intricate elements.
- The medical industry leverages CNC for manufacturing devices, implants, and surgical instruments.
- CNC is also crucial in electronics, enabling the production of electronic housings, circuit boards, and connectors.
- Machine tool makers rely on CNC to create complex molds, dies, and machine components. Additionally,
- CNC is valuable for general custom part production, prototyping, woodworking, and more, allowing for consistent quality and high precision.
Advantages of CNC Machining
- Precision and Repeatability: CNC machining ensures high precision and consistent replication of parts, crucial for complex designs with tight tolerances.
- Reduced Human Error: The automated nature of CNC machining minimizes human error, enhancing the overall quality of production.
- Efficiency and Speed: Automation allows for faster production cycles, enabling quicker turnaround times than manual processes.
- Material Flexibility: CNC machines can work with a diverse range of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites, offering versatility across various applications.
- Software Integration: Advanced CNC software supports quick design changes and updates, facilitating rapid prototyping and easy customization.
- Cost-Effective for Large Runs: While setup costs are higher, per-unit costs decrease significantly with larger production volumes, making it cost-effective for mass production.
Disadvantages of CNC Machining
- High Initial Costs: CNC machinery and its maintenance represent significant investments, making initial setup expensive, especially for small-scale operations.
- Skill Requirements: Operating CNC machines requires highly skilled personnel, which can increase training costs and limit accessibility.
- Less Cost-Effective for Small Runs: Due to setup and programming time, CNC machining may not be economical for producing small quantities of parts.
- Material Waste: CNC machining often involves subtractive processes, leading to more material waste compared to additive manufacturing.
- Limited to Material Hardness: Extremely hard materials can wear out CNC tools quickly, potentially increasing operational costs and downtime.
Manufacturing Process: 3D printing is an additive process, building parts layer by layer from materials like plastic or metal. In contrast, CNC machining is subtractive, cutting away material from a solid block to shape the final product.
Material Efficiency: 3D printing minimizes waste by using only the material needed to form the part, whereas CNC machining can produce more waste due to its subtractive nature.
Speed and Cost: For small batches and complex geometries, 3D printing can be faster and more cost-effective. CNC machining is preferable for larger volumes and materials requiring high precision and strength.
Surface Finish and Tolerances: CNC machining typically achieves better surface finishes and tighter tolerances compared to 3D printing.
