CNC Machining

What is CNC machining?

If you need a complex shape or design then CNC machined timber is the answer! CNC machining is a manufacturing process that has revolutionised the way products are produced. It utilises computer software to control various tools in order to shape and cut timber exactly to your specification, with precision, speed and ease.

In need of CNC machining services? Our 5-axis CNC machine is able to machine timber in five different directions simultaneously – think of it as a fantastic multitasker! The skilled operator takes your drawing (ideally in electronic format) and creates the program to machine your creation. The equipment is efficient and extremely accurate, which results in swift turnaround and a high-quality finished product.
