What is CNC turning services?
CNC turning services produce parts by placing a blank on a rotating chuck and eliminating products using fixed cutting devices. This innovation is excellent for getting rid of symmetry along their facility axis. Turned parts are typically produced faster (and at a reduced price) than CNC-milled parts.
ECOREPRAP CNC turning process produces custom prototypes and end-use production parts as rapidly as one day. We use a CNC turret with online tooling so functions like axial and radial holes, flats, grooves, and ports can be machined.
With the CNC turning services provided by us, you can make the following parts:
functional prototypes and end-use parts
parts with cylindrical features
parts with axial and radial holes, flats, grooves, and ports

CNC Turning Materials
CNC Turning Metals
There are diverse metals suitable for the CNC turning process, for example, aluminum, stainless steel, tool steel and others. CNC milled parts are suitable for prototypes and customized end-use parts.
CNC Turning Plastics
At ECOREPRAP, we offer more than 10 types of CNC turning plastics, such as ABS, Acrylic, POM, PEI, PEEK and others. Turned plastics have a better surface roughness than milled parts.
CNC Turning Surface Finishes
The surface finish of CNC-turned parts is usually higher than that of CNC-milled parts, with typical smoothness reaching Ra1.6. Take UHMWPE, for example; the surface finish achieved through CNC turning is typically smoother than CNC milling for the same material.
Many surface treatments are available to enhance your component’s performance by choosing top-notch surface finishes that improve roughness, hardness, chemical resistance, and aesthetics.
Precision CNC Turning Tolerances
We strictly produce parts according to the tolerances indicated on the customer’s 2D drawings, tight tolerance can be up to 0.005mm. Without specific instructions, at ECOREPRAP, we follow the ISO 2768-MK tolerance standards both for turning metals and plastics.
CNC Turning Design Guidelines
Based on our practices, we summarize ECOREPRAP CNC machining design guides, which aim to help designers optimize the CNC parts design and ensure the final parts are manufacturable, cost-effective, and meet the required specifications.

CNC Turning FAQs
The CNC turning process is mostly ideal for cylindrical-shaped raw materials. However, several manufacturers also use it for hexagonal and square-shaped workpieces. It is a popular method for making machine parts for microfluidic tools, signage components, surgical instruments, automotive frames, and aerospace parts.
Yes, ECOREPRAP CNC turning services include plastic parts manufacturing like acrylic, POM, PEEK and others. We can produce small or large-batch prototypes and parts from various engineering-grade plastics. Please choose from our extensive range of plastic materials and upload your design file to get custom plastic components.
CNC turning is the process of cutting along the axis of the workpiece on a lathe. The cutting tool typically contacts the workpieces at their tip, rotating on the lathes and machining along the axis of the workpieces.
1. The tool rotates along the workpiece’s axis for CNC turning, which can get more uniform cutting forces and vibrations. The vibration impact and excessive cutting forces will be reduced. In contrast, CNC milling always has complex lateral cutting on the workpiece surface. It will increase the instability of cutting forces and decrease surface quality.
2. Turning along the axis minimizes changes in the cutting tool angles, ensuring more excellent contact between the cutting tool and the workpieces.
3. Turning along the axis helps reduce surface irregularities and cutting edge wear.
