What is CNC Machining ?
CNC Machining is short for computer numerical control machining. It is a technique that involves processing the parts on certain CNC machines. Such as CNC milling, CNC turning, and CNC surface grinding machines. Other than conventional machining, CNC machine tools are controlled by a precisely programmed computer system. The code used to program CNC units is generically called G-Code. It tells the machine how to move its tools to make the desired parts. Some advantages of CNC machining process listed below for your reference .
CNC Machining Advantages
CNC machining is a relatively new process in the world of machining, which allows for increased efficiency through higher levels of automation and by allowing the machine and it’s computer controls to do all the work. As you can imagine, CNC machining provides a variety of advantages to users as well as the customers.
1. Precise Components Machining:
The machine is able to carve out the product from the material to exact specifications. It creats components of complex shapes easily without consuming too much time.
2.Range of Materials:
CNC machining can be used to manufacture products from a variety of materials. These include bronze, steel, aluminum, polymers such as ABS, polycarbonate, and PTFE as well.
3.Repeatability:
Once a design has been fed into the computer, the CNC machine can repeat the manufacturing process multiple times. Also, you will always get a high level of precision in the component.
4.Improves automation:
CNC machining removes the need of an operator for all but a few parts of the work. CNC machines can be left unattended for hours or even days if necessary, allowing operators to focus on other tasks. This also allows for a company to retain fewer operators, thereby saving on overhead.
5.Flexibility:
The CNC machines can be quickly shifted to produce a completely different product without the installation of many new parts or a major overhaul of key components. This also ensures that CNC machines can keep up with customer demand.
