Metal Machining & Milling
Milling is the process of machining a sheet of metal using rotary cutters to remove material.It's one of the most commonly used processes to machine custom metal parts to tight tolerances.
The difference at Buckeye Shapeform?Milling is just one of the many steps in our metal enclosure fabrication process that we retain in-house in order to offer our customers lower costs and quicker turnaround times.Operating the most recent technology allows us to make more precise cuts and meet tighter tolerances than our competitors, resulting in a higher-quality end product.
