What Is CNC Routing?

Computer controlled cutting is known as CNC routing which involves shaping and engraving a material in high precision. 

It also applies well on wood, plastics, composite, foam and soft metals; hence it is suitable for flat parts, panels, signage, and repetitive production that demands clean edges and fast production.

Top Proto provides high-quality, fast, accurate cuts, clean cuts, and predictable outcomes of its CNC routing.  

We accept a broad spectrum of materials such as wood and plastics as well as composite and soft metals.  

We have high-end CNC routers which guarantee quick turnaround of prototypes as well as production.  

You will find an economical routing service that is guaranteed by a high quality control.  

The experienced team optimizes the designs to be better machinable and with less wastage.

With our advanced CNC machining service, we create molds and tooling with precision needed to test designs, validate fit, and function and bring products to market faster. It’s perfect for prototypes, low volume runs, and early-stage development where outworking competitors is critical and precision matters most.

Production Tooling

For our production tooling, we prioritize long-term durability. With top grade materials and precision CNC machining, we make tooling that allows full-scale production without losing accuracy. If you need thousands of the same parts, and even with batch production, we deliver consistent, reliable tooling and stable production cycles.

Design Guidelines For CNC Routing

FeatureGuideline
Internal CornersUse corner radii to avoid stress concentration.
Wall ThicknessMaintain a minimum of 1.0 mm for structural stability.
Slot & Pocket WidthDesign slots at least 1.5× the tool diameter.
Hole DiameterMinimum hole size of 2.0 MM for accurate routing.
Part FlatnessEnsure even material thickness to prevent warping.
Edge DistanceKeep features at least 2× material thickness from edges.
Text & EngravingUse stroke width ≥ 1.0 MM for clear readability.
Material Grain DirectionAlign cuts with the grain direction for wood-based materials.
