What Is CNC Shell Machining?

CNC shell machining refers to the subtractive manufacturing process for creating hollow, enclosure-type components with complex geometries. Unlike solid block machining, shell structures require specialized toolpath strategies to maintain structural integrity while achieving thin walls (typically .5-3mm thickness).

Key Process Considerations

1. Material Selection: Aluminum alloys (6061-T6, 7075) and stainless steel (304, 316L) are most common for shell components due to their strength-to-weight ratio.
2. Tooling Strategy: Our 5-axis CNC centers utilize tapered end mills and dynamic milling techniques to prevent vibration-induced defects.
3. Fixture Design: Custom vacuum chucks or expandable mandrels ensure zero deformation during machining.
