9 Sheet Metal Cutting Problems and Solutions
Ask any metal shop foreman, and they’ll tell you, cutting is where problems start if your setup isn’t dialed in. Burn marks, warped sheets, rough edges, and mismatched dimensions don’t just mess up the part, they snowball into delays, rework, and scrap loss. Whether you’re using a high-powered sheet metal cutting machine, a CNC system for metal cutting, or precision laser cutting, one small parameter off can mean the difference between a clean cut and a ruined sheet. In this guide, we’ll break down 9 ......

vertical vs horizontal CNC milling machines: Pros and Cons
When you’re selecting the right CNC milling machine, you’ll eventually hit the fork in the road: vertical vs horizontal. Both vertical CNC machines and horizontal CNC milling machines bring powerful capabilities to the table, but the direction in which the spindle is oriented (up/down or side-to-side) drastically affects performance, material handling, and end-use applications. So what’s the real difference? And more importantly, which one is better for your project? What is a Vertical CNC Machine? A ......

EDM Hole Drilling vs Conventional Drilling: Precision and Use Cases Compared
Drilling a hole sounds simple, until you need to do it with extreme precision, into hardened materials, or to microscopic depths. That’s when you start comparing EDM hole drilling and conventional CNC drilling side by side. While both are designed to create holes, their technologies, capabilities, and ideal use cases couldn’t be more different. So, which method should you choose for your next project? Let’s dig in. What Is EDM Hole Drilling? EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) hole drilling, also cal......

End Milling vs Face Milling: Key Differences, Tools & Applications
In the world of CNC machining, milling is a go-to process, but not all milling operations are the same. End milling and face milling are two widely used machining methods, each optimized with distinct tooling designs, cutting geometries, and suited for different types of operations. While they both shape metal through rotary cutters, they differ in how, where, and what they cut. In this blog, we’ll break down the differences between end mills and face mills, compare performance, and help you decide wh......

How EDM Wire Cutting Works: Complete Guide to Precision CNC Wire Cutting
Cutting Metal with Electricity? If you’re in the world of high-precision manufacturing, chances are you’ve heard of EDM wire cutting, short for Electrical Discharge Machining (Wire EDM). It’s not your typical metal cutting method. There are no spinning blades, drills, or end mills. Instead, it slices through metal with electrical sparks, offering unmatched precision and control. But how does EDM wire cutting work? What makes it so popular in aerospace, mold-making, and medical device industries? And w......
