A CNC machine (Computer Numerical Control) utilizes advanced computer software to dictate its operations. These machines are the cornerstone of the modern manufacturing industry, automating complex processes to allow for high precision, repeatability, and efficiency in producing parts and components. From aerospace to medical fields, this cutting-edge technology is essential.
Shipping a CNC machine involves navigating complex logistics, but Atlantic Project Cargo is always prepared to assist. We offer reliable transport services to ensure your cargo’s safe and timely delivery, protecting your investment in automated equipment. Request your free quote today!
These units use rotary cutting tools to remove material from a workpiece. CNC mill units are vital for creating complex shapes.
CNC lathes create cylindrical parts by rotating the workpiece against a stationary cutting tool. Manual lathes are also supported, though less common in high-speed manufacturing.
CNC routers are primarily used for cutting softer materials like wood, plastics, and composites, offering excellent speed and precision.
CNC plasma cutters use a high-velocity jet of ionized gas (plasma) to cut through electrically conductive materials, such as steel and aluminum. This involves managing electrical arc technology.
Laser cutters utilize a focused laser beam to cut or engrave materials with high precision. They are ideal for cutting metal and other various materials cleanly.
These use a high-pressure jet of water, often mixed with abrasive material, to cut through almost any material without generating heat.
These remove material from a conductive workpiece using electrical discharges (sparks) between two electrodes.
These use rotating ceramic-blend grinding wheels to remove workpiece material for sanding, finishing, or polishing metal surfaces.
Ideal for drilling holes in any material for screws, secondary assembly, or aesthetic requirements.
For domestic transfers or short-haul international shipments, our company offers reliable ground transport services. This includes:
For long-distance deliveries, Atlantic Project Cargo provides efficient ocean freight solutions:
When time is of the essence, we offer rapid air freight services:

Mode of transportation: Air charters are significantly more expensive than ocean or ground transportation methods
Distance: Hauling a CNC machine across the country is generally cheaper than transporting it overseas
Additional expenses: These include insurance for high-value items, permits, customs duties, and so on
Size and Weight: The heavier the cargo and the more heavy-duty the build, the higher the cost
Season: The shipping industry fluctuates between high and low seasons, which affects the final cost
This is a method of shipping where equipment is driven directly onto and off a ship
This means the entire container is dedicated to your shipment. It is a popular choice for shipping equipment due to the protection and control it offers, ensuring no damage to the cam software, hardware, or delicate tools
An excellent choice for transporting equipment, especially those that are oversized or have dimensions exceeding standard container limits
The fastest method for transporting a CNC machine or its parts, but it involves a high cost
Regulations vary from country to country, but the common mandates include:
These trailers offer a basic, open platform for securing and hauling equipment
Featuring a lowered rear platform, this provides the necessary clearance to transport machinery legally without requiring special height permits
Their most significant advantage is the ability to carry high loads, such as large mills or 3d printers for industrial use
Moving equipment over long distances comes with specific restrictions and regulations, such as:
Yes, we provide both domestic and international equipment shipping services. Whether you are moving a CNC machinist shop to a new country or exporting various types of machinery, we handle the logistics.
The delivery timeline depends on the distance, the chosen transportation method, and any potential delays. We offer estimated shipping times during the quote process so you can coordinate with your CNC operator for installation.
Yes, we offer comprehensive insurance coverage to protect your equipment during transit. CNC machines often contain sensitive electronics and pre-programmed software systems that require full value protection.
The required documents vary depending on the shipping destination. Generally, you will need a bill of lading, commercial invoice, and possibly export/import permits. Our team can assist you with the necessary documentation to ensure smooth customs entry.
Yes, we provide door-to-door pickup and delivery services for your convenience. We can pick up from the manufacturer and deliver directly to your business floor.
Yes, we strongly recommend that you back up all G code, M code, and system parameters. While we take every precaution to ensure smooth transport, protecting your data and computer programming is a vital step in the preparation process.
Yes, for machines like EDM or specific plasma cutters that may have residue of dielectric fluids or molten metal, we can guide you on the proper cleaning and hazmat documentation required for safe shipping.
