CNC Milling Machines
Our Bridgeport CNC mill that we use for custom manufacturing and die block construction.
CNC milling machines are great machines for custom manufacturing projects. The difference between a CNC mill and a manual mill is that the CNC mill operates based on an operator programming the cuts required to make the desired product. The CNC milling machine then cuts, drills, and tapers according to the programmed operations. CNC mills are faster than a regular manual mill, as they have the capability of holding multiple tools and quickly changing them, significantly reducing operation time.
CNC milling machines are great for short-run custom manufacturing, and creating blocks for tool and die building projects. With our tool and die building staff, we make all of our own blocks for the dies we use in house for our Building Products line. The CNC mills we currently operate in house are (including their ranges and spindle speeds):
- Bridgeport 2216

- Spindle speed= 8,000 RPM
- Mori Seiki MV Junior
- X-Axis= 22″ Y-Axis= 16″ Z-Axis= 18″
- Spindle Speed= 10,000 RPM
- Fadal VMC 4020a
- X-Axis= 40″ Y-Axis= 20″ Z-Axis= 20″
- Spindle Speed= 7,500 RPM
