Custom Cutting Services with Taiga | From Large to Small Lot Orders

We handle complex shapes and high-precision dimensional requirements. Whether it’s large machinery parts or small-batch custom orders, we can accommodate a wide range of needs. We offer a one-stop solution for the entire process, delivering on time to meet our customers' expectations.

What is Cutting Processing?

Cutting processing is a method used to shape materials such as metal and plastic by removing material with cutting tools. A simple example of cutting processing is using a pencil sharpener to shave a pencil. In this case, the sharpener blade is the cutting tool, and the pencil is the workpiece being processed. To explain in more detail, a tool (called a "bit") is attached to a machine tool, and it is brought into contact with the material. The material or tool is then rotated or moved linearly to gradually remove small amounts of material. Many products we use every day, such as automotive parts, aerospace components, home appliances, and molds, are made through cutting processing.

Advantages of Cutting Process

Capable of machining parts that require micron-level accuracy

In cutting, very high dimensional accuracy can be achieved by precisely controlling the tool. It is also possible to machine parts that require micron-level accuracy. This makes it ideal for machining parts for precision machinery and electronic devices.

Capable of machining complex shapes

By combining various machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, and machining centers with cutting tools, we can handle the machining of complex shapes such as flat and curved surfaces, holes, and grooves.

Compatible with a wide range of materials

It can cut a wide variety of materials, including not only metals, but also plastics, wood, and ceramics.

Small to large production runs are available

Cutting can be used for various production quantities, from one-off items to mass production. It is also flexible enough to accommodate design changes, making it suitable for prototype production and small-quantity, high-mix production.

Cutting Process

  1. 1

    Design and Drawing Editing

    First, we determine what kind of product or part will be made and create a blueprint.
    Drawings can be created and edited on the Taiga. Everyone can edit 2D drawings at the same time using the pen, highlight, typing, and chat functions.

  2. 2

    Material Preparation

    Based on the blueprints, we select materials to be processed, check dimensions and shapes, etc.

  3. 3

    Machine Tool Preparation

    Selects appropriate machine tools according to the shape, dimensions, and accuracy of the product to be machined. Create and set up a machining program to control the movement of the machine tool.

  4. 4

    Machining

    The machine tool is operated to apply the tool to the material for cutting. Machining accuracy and surface roughness can be improved by properly setting the rotation speed, feed rate, and depth of cut.

  5. 5

    Finishing

    We perform processes such as deburring, surface treatment, and painting to enhance the appearance of the product or part. Surface treatments include plating, painting, and anodizing, which are selected based on the product’s application and requirements.

  6. 6

    Inspection and Completion

    Finished products are inspected for size, shape, appearance, and strength to ensure that they meet quality standards.

  7. 7

    One-Click Reprocessing (Re-purchase)

    Developed parts and products are stored on Taiga, making it easy to reprocess (or re-purchase) the same items when needed.

Types of cutting Process that can be performed on the Taiga

Lathe Machining

Lathe machining is a machining technique in which a metal bar or cylindrical material is shaved with a cutting tool while being rotated. It can precisely cut, groove, and thread the outside and inside diameters, and is ideal for machining cylindrical parts. Machines ranging from manually operated general-purpose lathes to computer-controlled NC and CNC lathes are used depending on the application. Since high dimensional accuracy and smooth finish are required, these machines are used in a wide range of fields such as automobiles, aircraft, and precision equipment.

Wire Cut Processing

Wire-cut processing is a technology to precisely cut metals by passing an electric current through an extremely thin metal wire (wire) and using the electrical discharge phenomenon. Since the process is non-contact, there is no blade wear, and it can be used to process hard metals and complex shapes. Micron-level precision can be achieved through computer control, making it particularly suitable for manufacturing molds and precision parts. A type of electric discharge machining, it is characterized by its low thermal effect and high precision and smooth finish.

Unique Services for More Efficient Manufacturing

At Taiga, we offer a variety of services designed to achieve more efficient manufacturing.
First, we provide a "collaboration feature" that allows all project stakeholders to view and approve drawings and contracts in real-time.
Additionally, our platform enables easy communication through chat, and consolidates various files—such as 2D and 3D drawings, quotes, and project-related documents—into one central location.
These services help meet the diverse needs of our customers, streamline information sharing, and improve efficiency by reducing inspection time, returns, and rework.

Support for manufacturing methods other than cutting machining

In addition to cutting, we also support various manufacturing methods such as CFRP processing, sheet metal processing, 3D printing, and injection molding. We propose multiple manufacturing methods best suited for your products, reducing the time and effort required to search for subcontractors. We realize quick quotations and smooth parts manufacturing.
