Turning
Creative Machine is an industry leader in CNC turning in the Northwest Missouri area. We use high precision Mori-Seiki, Nakamura Tome, and YCM SuperMax CNC turning centers. Our superior CNC turning services allow us to fabricate parts and components from a variety of materials, all with unparalleled accuracy and precision. No other facility in the area can match our level of excellence in CNC turning services. On our CNC turning centers, Creative Machine can drill, bore, finish contour, groove and thread with a high level of precision on a full range of materials. Turning can be done on one part or hundreds with tolerances comparable to aerospace standards.
Specific CNC Turning Capabilities:
- Materials up to 23.0" diameter
- Lengths to 50.0" long
- Spindle Speeds to 7000 RPM
- Repeatability to +/- 0.0001
- Repair of shafts up to 20’’ dia by 144” long
- Hard turning, Rockwell hardness 62+ Rc
- Small to medium production runs
- One-off replacement parts
- Close tolerance tooling (.0002") commonly
Grinding
Creative Machining Solutions has full surface-grinding capabilities.
Our grinding process is an essential attribute to producing close tolerance tooling.
Tolerances of (.0002″) are common and easily achieved.
Milling
2 AXIS MILLING
Using CAD/CAM software, we can create atypical contours, complicated geometrical profiles and machined parts with any number of features. We have more than 90 years of combined CNC milling experience
3 AXIS MILLING
Create a “wire-frame” of the shape that needs to be machined.
Apply surfaces to the wire-frame to create the solid model.
Generate the code necessary to machine the solid model.
FULL 4 AXIS MILLING
- Some of our Matsuuras are equipped with a 12 inch Tsudokoma rotary axis. This is not just an indexer, but a full additional axis. Some common uses are machining deep pitch extrusion screws, sine wave machining, and even machining multiple sides of a part in a single operation.
- One of the benefits of this type of machining application is the accuracy. When a part has critical tolerances regarding the timing of one feature to another about the circumference, it can be easily achieved using the 4th axis.
