Delta-Ray Industries excels in precision CNC machining, utilizing advanced multi-axis milling and turning to produce complex components from exotic materials with tight tolerances and superior surface finishes. Their expertise includes machining nickel, cobalt, and refractory alloys critical for aerospace, military, and oil sector applications.

Machining encompasses a variety of manufacturing processes aimed at shaping and removing material from a workpiece. This includes both computer-controlled processes, such as CNC milling, turning, and routing, as well as non-traditional methods like Electrochemical, Chemical, and Photochemical Machining.

CNC Machining

CNC Milling removes material with rotating cutters under precise multi-axis computer control, producing complex prismatic or sculpted parts with positional accuracy to ±0.005 mm and surface finishes ≤ Ra 0.4 µm. Machines span 3-axis vertical mills, 4-axis horizontals with pallet changers, and full 5-axis trunnion or gantry platforms, supporting everything from rapid prototypes to lights-out production in metals, plastics, and composites.

CNC Milling

CNC Turning uses computer-controlled lathes to rotate bar, billet, or cast blanks while single-point cutting tools remove material. The process excels at producing concentric OD/ID features, tapers, threads, grooves, and complex contours with tight positional accuracy. Modern CNC lathes support live tooling, Y-axis interpolation, sub-spindle part transfer, and bar-feed automation—enabling complete, high-volume production of precision cylindrical components in metals or plastics.

CNC Turning

Specialised CNC strategies for nickel-, cobalt- and refractory-alloy machining (Inconel®, Hastelloy®, Waspaloy®…) using high-pressure coolant and torque monitoring to maintain ±0.005 mm size repeatability.
