Basic Principles of CNC Machining

CNC machining (Computer Numerical Control machining) is a method of automated machining using a computer programme to control a machine tool. In today's era of digital manufacturing, CNC machining technology has become a very critical component of the manufacturing industry.

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining uses computer-controlled machine tools, such as lathes, milling machines, drilling machines, etc., to achieve automated, high-precision machining by controlling the machine's motion and machining path through programming.

 High precision: CNC machine tools can accurately control the position and movement of tools to ensure high precision of machined parts.

 Consistency and Repeatability: CNC machining can ensure the consistency of each part, which is suitable for mass production.

 Flexibility: by changing the programme, you can quickly adjust to change the machining parameters to adapt to different machining requirements.

 Automation: Reduced manual intervention，lower operational errors and labour costs.

CNC machining mainly consists of the following main processes

 Turning: using a lathe to rotate the workpiece and process it through a fixed tool, commonly used for processing cylindrical parts.

 Milling: using a milling machine, through the rotating tool on the fixed workpiece for cutting, suitable for processing complex shaped parts.

 Drilling: the use of drilling machines or milling machines on the drill for the processing of holes.

 Grinding: Precision surface treatment of workpieces by means of tools such as grinding wheels.
