CNC Solutions for the Metalworking Industry

Applications of CNC in metallurgy

The metallurgical industry works with parts of very different sizes and materials: from small precision components to large-format parts for heavy machinery. CNC machining, both milling and turning, makes it possible to produce these parts with repeatability between batches.

CNC equipment for metal machining

Vurcon manufactures and distributes machining centers and CNC lathes suited to different part sizes: from compact vertical centers to double-column centers for large parts, and from high-speed slant-bed lathes to flat-bed lathes for longer parts.

• Vertical and double-column machining centers
• Slant-bed and flat-bed lathes
• Fanuc and Fagor numerical controls depending on the series

Advantages of Vurcon solutions in metallurgy

Having different machine families makes it possible to adapt the configuration to each type of metal part, rather than forcing the same model onto very different applications. This is especially useful in workshops that work with several materials and part sizes.

Use cases in metallurgical production

CNC machining in metallurgy is used to manufacture structural components, machine parts, fixtures and fastening elements, among other applications typical of metalworking.

Frequently asked questions about CNC in metallurgy

Which machine is recommended for a general metalworking shop?

It depends on the type of part machined most often. Check with our technical team to compare machining centers and CNC lathes based on your production.

Can different metals be machined on the same machine?

Yes, within the power and spindle speed limits of the chosen model, adapting the tool and cutting parameters to each material.

What is the difference between a vertical center and a double-column center for metallurgy?

A double-column center is designed for larger, heavier parts, while a vertical center is better suited to small and medium-sized parts.
