CNC Wood Routing Surface Finishes

We apply wood-appropriate finishes in-house to control quality and lead time. Each finish below protects the wood surface, adjusts appearance, or prepares the part for assembly.

Surface Finish

SPECIFICATION

Sanding

Parts ship directly off the machine with tool marks removed by progressive sanding through 120, 180, 240, and 320 grit. Standard finish for unfinished furniture components, prototypes, and parts that will receive downstream finishing from the buyer.

clear sealer and lacquer

Polishing

Sanded surfaces are buffed to a smooth, even sheen for parts where appearance and feel matter most. Available in satin or high-gloss finish, applied after sanding and before any protective topcoat.

stain and oil finish

Oil Finishing

Penetrating Danish oil applied to the sanded surface. Enhances wood grain, evens out color variation across the panel, and adds a warm hand-rubbed look. Color options include natural, golden oak, walnut, ebony, and custom color matching.

What's CNC Wood Routing

CNC wood routing is a way to cut and shape wood, sheet stock, and composite panels with a computer-guided router. CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control, which means a computer directs every tool movement instead of a human operator. A spinning cutting tool moves along the X, Y and Z axes above a flat panel of material, following the CAD file to cut, carve or profile the part the same way every time.

The process starts with a digital file that defines every cut path. The router then moves the spinning bit through the panel in passes, while a vacuum table or clamps hold the stock flat and still. Finishing operations, such as sanding, oil or polish, and edge banding happen after cutting.

Wood routing differs from CNC turning, where the workpiece itself rotates against a stationary or slow-moving cutting tool to produce cylindrical parts such as shafts or bushings, the opposite motion from routing. It also differs from CNC milling: milling uses the same X/Y/Z cutting motion as routing but is typically set up for heavier-duty work on metal, with different tooling, spindle power and tolerances than wood routing requires. Routing is purpose-built for flat and sheet-stock parts in wood and wood composites.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about CNC wood routing, materials, and our production system.

Yes, when the prototype has strong commercial value, is expected to lead to production, or forms part of a project that also requires CNC metal components.

Wood-routing projects above USD 1,000 are preferred because sourcing and production coordination require significant team resources. Other projects can still be submitted for review.

Each individual dimension must be 800 mm or less: maximum length 800 mm, width 800 mm and height 800 mm.

The approved standard is ±0.3 mm. Natural wood can move or deform, so final tolerance suitability must be reviewed against the design and material.

CAD or STEP files, dimensioned drawings and a bill of materials are preferred. Please also include prototype quantity, first production quantity and estimated annual demand.

Send your files, quantities and delivery requirements. We will review whether the project is a suitable fit for Yijin Solution’s manufacturing network.
