What is the maximum acrylic thickness you can CNC mill?

We CNC mill acrylic up to 50mm thick. Our Z-axis travel is 200mm, allowing machining of thick blocks and 3D contours.

What tolerance does CNC milling achieve vs laser cutting?

CNC milling achieves +/-0.05mm tolerance, which is twice as precise as laser cutting (+/-0.1mm). CNC is preferred for precision-fit parts, threaded holes, and 3D machining.

Can you machine 3D shapes in acrylic?

Yes. Our CNC routers perform 2.5D and 3D machining including pocketing, chamfering, engraving, stepped profiles, and contoured surfaces.

What CNC machines do you use?

We operate two Kimla CNC routers: the BPF 2131 (2100x3100mm, 9kW spindle) and BPF 1541 (1500x4100mm, 7kW spindle), both with +/-0.05mm positioning accuracy.

Can you add threads and mounting holes?

Yes. We cut threads directly into acrylic and polycarbonate, drill precision mounting holes, and machine counterbores and countersinks for flush-mount hardware.

What file formats do you accept for CNC work?

We accept DXF, DWG for 2D profiles, and STEP, IGES, SAT for 3D machining. PDF technical drawings are accepted for quoting purposes.

Advantages of CNC milling

🎯

Superior precision

±0.05mm tolerance enables the most demanding precision-fit parts and assemblies.

🛡

Thick materials

CNC mills acrylic up to 50mm thick - ideal for blocks, thick panels, and structural components.

🔢

3D machining

Pocketing, channelling, chamfering, engraving, and contoured 3D surfaces in a single setup.

📈

Large format parts

Working area of 2100x3100mm accommodates large panels, signage, and architectural elements.

🛠

Threading & tapping

We cut threads, drill precision mounting holes, and machine counterbores for flush-mount hardware.

✅

Batch repeatability

CNC ensures identical parts across production runs - every piece matches the first within tolerance.
