What is post-machining?
Post-machining is where raw material or a component is taken for further working, usually involving material removal, and is carried out after a primary forming process. SuNPe usually use post-machining to meet key requirements of 3D printing, vacuum casting, die casting, metal casting and vacuum forming projects.Where does SuNPe use post-machining?
SuNPe widely use post-machining in following projects to meet key requirements:1. Post-machining for 3D printing projects
The wall thickness is too thin for 3D printing, we can thicken the wall thickness for 3D printing and then pos-machining to remove materials and hit the thin thickness.

2. Post-machining for vacuum casting projects
As we know, vacuum casting use a soft silicone tooling to casting parts, it's hard to control the critical tolerance when casting, then post machining is needed.
3. Post-machining for die casting projects
Usually, the gates and slag of die casting parts are too thick to remove by hand, post-machining to remove the gates and slag to get a beautiful surface.

4. Post-machining for metal casting projects
Metal casting parts' surfaces are a little rough, post-machining to make surfaces bright and good for assembly.

5. Post-machining for vacuum forming projects
Vacuum forming parts is made from a whole piece material, post-machining is used for cutting critical mating slots, holes and permanent logos on the outer surfaces
