Aria’s CNC turning services are designed to create elaborate external geometries with internal bores that result in exceptionally tight tolerances and radiant surface finishes.
This process is appropriate for rapid prototypes, introducing new products, and low-volume production.
Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM)
EDM machining is a process by which electric spark erosion is used as a cutting tool to remove metal under controlled conditions. The spark literally erodes the workpiece. We can then transform the eroded workpiece into the desired size and shape.
This tool can be used to cut holes and pockets into hardened steel. EDM is often used to fashion square pockets. It’s also used to impart a surface texture to the internal cavities of mold tools.
A high-powered electric spark is discharged by a sacrificial electrode residing in an electrolyte bath. The electric spark can erode extremely hard materials that would resist erosion with any other method.
Wire EDM is a variation of EDM. In this case, an electrically charged wire that’s fed continuously between two spools can cut through-hardened tool steel at high speed with impressive accuracy.

Our Capabilities
CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing process that’s accomplished with the help of high-grade precision cutting tools.
We use these implements to remove layers of raw material from a workpiece. The piece can then be recast into all manner of shapes and sizes to create a unique and customized part or product.
CNC machining is predominantly used for manufacturing parts and prototypes. However, it has other uses. Aria uses CNC machining to make the mold tools we use in our plastic injection molding process and during our pressure die casting operations. You can get a CNC machining services quote online.
What Are CNC Machining and
How Can it Help Me?
What is CNC machining?
CNC machining is a wide-ranging manufacturing category involving multiple computer-managed processes. The objective is to remove enough raw material from a piece to achieve a state of near completion.
What are the advantages of CNC machining?
The reliability and precision of high-tech tools powered by sophisticated software programs give CNC machining the ability to quickly generate prototypes and complicated end-use parts having exceptionally tight tolerances.
What is the difference between the subtractive and additive manufacturing processes?
CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing process. When the material is added instead of removed, it’s called an additive manufacturing process. Examples of subtractive CNC machining include specialized applications such as CNC milling services, turning, surface grinding, and EDM. An example of additive CNC machining is 3D printing.
What are the advantages of CNC machining?
Computer-aided design (CAD) files are digital records containing 3D designs and information about materials, processes, tolerances, and other variables. A digitally controlled CNC machine must always contain a file of the part design that controls it.
What kind of finish does CNC machining have?
The spinning motion from the CNC machine’s cutter will leave visible tool marks. Although they stand ready for immediate service, they can be further refined with anodizing, painting, polishing, and plating.
