CNC Slatwall groove machining
From groove profile and spacing to aluminum trim fit checks, we convert drawing requirements into a workable machining plan.

Machining scope
Groove width is confirmed against the profile and fit check.
Groove width is not fixed to one number in isolation.Before machining, we confirm it against the aluminum trim profile, board thickness and fit-check result; groove spacing is reviewed against the customer drawing or project requirements.
- CNC Groove machiningProgrammed from the drawing and machined as continuous grooves.
- Board thickness range5-25 mm thickness; 18 mm is a commonly used specification.
- Supporting machiningCan be combined with cutting, chamfering, radiusing, engraving and custom-profile machining.
Pre-machining confirmation
Confirm four items before moving to batch production.
Finished dimensions, board material, finish and groove profile are part of one production plan.The commonly used raw board is 1220 x 2440 mm，Finished dimensions must account for trimming and machining allowance; raw-board dimensions cannot be used as finished dimensions.
Read the drawing
Confirm finished dimensions, groove layout, orientation and edge requirements.
Review the groove profile
Confirm the groove-opening solution against the aluminum trim profile and fit check.
Batch machining
Run CNC groove machining and supporting operations to the approved plan.

Custom groove machining starts with finished dimensions
For cut-to-size slatwall panels, confirm finished panel dimensions, groove spacing and profile, board thickness and the intended insert. A commonly used raw-board size is not a guaranteed finished size. Keep the panel and insert drawings under an identified revision.
In an RFQ, groove spacing may also be described as slat centres or centers. Show the centre-to-centre distance, edge margins and groove direction on the drawing, and identify whether dimensions are in millimetres or inches.
Buyer questions
Can slatwall dimensions and groove spacing be customized?
YENC reviews finished dimensions, groove spacing, profile, depth and direction against the project drawing. Board thickness, insert interface and machining allowances need to be considered together. A market-standard dimension is not automatically the finished size for an order.
Is 1220 x 2440 mm a guaranteed finished panel size?
No. YENC describes 1220 x 2440 mm as a commonly used raw-board size. Finished dimensions must allow for trimming and machining, and must be confirmed against the drawing. Do not convert a raw-board reference into a finished-panel guarantee.
