VT machining specialises in CNC Swiss Machining 316L Stainless Steel. Because 316L Stainless Steel is corrosion resistant, strong and hygienic, and its machinability is moderate; work-hardens, so positive-rake tooling and steady feeds are used to avoid glazing, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.
CNC Swiss Machining Capability for 316L Stainless Steel
- Austenitic/martensitic grades
- Corrosion resistant
- Tolerance to ±0.01 mm
- Typical hardness 70–200 HB (annealed)
CNC Swiss Machining Quality & Inspection
Quality control for CNC Swiss Machining 316L Stainless Steel includes in-process checks and final inspection of the features you mark critical, so the 316L Stainless Steel parts you receive are to print.
Machining 316L Stainless Steel with CNC Swiss Machining
316L Stainless Steel behaves predictably under CNC Swiss Machining once parameters are set: machinability is moderate; work-hardens, so positive-rake tooling and steady feeds are used to avoid glazing, and we tune the operation accordingly.
Why 316L Stainless Steel?
316L Stainless Steel is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is corrosion resistant, strong and hygienic. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.
