Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) software will generate code to operate the machines to cut almost any ferrous or non-ferrous metal, plastic, or other material quickly and with great accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-our-capabilities\">Our Capabilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/electric-discharge-machining\/\">Electric Discharge Machining (EDM)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-milling\/\">CNC Milling<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-turning\/\">CNC Turning<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-routing\/\">CNC Routing<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-plasma-cutting\/\">CNC Plasma Cutting<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-related-videos\">Related Videos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-row\">\n<div class=\"uwm-l-col\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-about-cnc-maching\">About CNC Maching<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What is CNC Machining and How Does it Work?\" width=\"1400\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FNYEXjRmDtI?start=2&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-col\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-manual-vs-cnc-machining\">Manual Vs CNC Machining<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Manual VS CNC Machining\" width=\"1400\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Gd-UqQksN3I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-col--4 uwm-l-offset--1\"><nav aria-label=\"Sidebar\" class=\"uwm-p-navigation-list uwm-p-navigation-list--gold-border \"><div class=\"uwm-p-navigation-list--title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/\">Fabrication Services<\/a><\/div><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/3d-printing\/\">3D Printing<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/3d-scanning\/\">3D Scanning<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"current\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/\"><span aria-current=\"page\">CNC Machining<\/span><\/a><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/electric-discharge-machining\/\">Electric Discharge Machining (EDM)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-milling\/\">CNC Milling<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-plasma-cutting\/\">CNC Plasma Cutting<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-routing\/\">CNC Routing<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/cnc-machining\/cnc-turning\/\">CNC Turning<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/manual-machining\/\">Manual Machining<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/prototyping\/fabrication-services\/welding\/\">Welding<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1321,"featured_media":0,"parent":6,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","uwm_wg_additional_authors":[]},"class_list":["post-78","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
