CNC Milling Service

What is CNC Milling?

CNC Milling is a subtractive manufacturing process that uses a drill-like cutting tool to remove material from a workpiece.

Multi-Axis CNC Milling allows parts with multiple surfaces to be machined quickly and easily. Parts requiring good flatness and accurate complex curved surfaces can be produced easily.

CNC Milling, perfect for custom milling, is widely adopted for low to medium volume metal and plastic parts that require high strength and dimensional accuracy. CNC Milling is one of Get It Made’s core manufacturing processes and is able to offer high-quality parts at excellent prices.

Get It Made has years of experience in milling machine parts, and our CNC machine capabilities allow for high precision machining accuracy and a quality finish. You can enquire about our milling services online today and get a competitive quote within 24 hours.

With the latest CNC milling technology, equipment, and milling procedures, we deliver high-quality results with a fast turnaround time. With consistency and clarity throughout the process of working with us, explore Get It Made’s milling services today and see how we can help you with your project expectations.

CNC Milling FAQ's

How do I get a quote?

The quickest way is to fill out our online quote form. Alternatively, if you would like to discuss your project before submitting a quote, feel free to email our engineers at team@get-it-made.co.uk.

How long does it take to get a quote?

For most projects we aim to get a quote back to you within 24h. However, if you submit a quote in the morning we can sometimes provide a quote the same day. Injection moulding is the exemption to this as and will take more than 24h to quote.

What materials can you provide?

Get It Made offers a wide variety of materials, although we mainly work with metals and plastics. Please see the list for a sample of the materials we work with. For CNC machining please see our material list for CNC machining.

If you can’t see the material you are looking for, please get in touch with Get It Made, and we will do our best to source it for you.

How much thickness does anodising add?

Type II is the standard variation of anodising and clear coatings typically have a thickness of 5-15 μm and coloured/dyed coatings 10-25 μm.

Type III anodising also known as 'hard anodising’ can have a thickness of 20-80 μm.

A good design guideline to follow is that 50% of the anodic coating is below the original surface and 50% is above. Therefore, a 12 μm coating would increase the part thickness by 6 μm.

Is Get It Made an ISO 9001 Accredited?

Yes, Get It Made is proud to be ISO 9001 accredited. Not too sure what ISO 9001 is? Have a read of our ISO 9001 in manufacturing article.

What is the quickest lead time you can offer for CNC milling?

For small scale CNC projects in Al6061 we can manufacture in as little as 2 days as we have the material readily available in-house.
