What is computer numerical control (CNC) machining and how does it work?
CNC machining is an essential part of manufacturing and has changed the industry in many ways. The benefits of CNC machining include increased efficiency, improved accuracy, and greater flexibility.
The Universal Technical Institute explains that a CNC machine is a device used to remove material from a base stock piece using drilling, milling, turning, or other methods. This generates the desired forms and angles to create the finished product.
The use of computers to control the movement of tools is known as CNC machining. This machining is used to make parts with tight tolerances and repeatability.
According to Tech Target, Computer numerical control (CNC) uses software to control machine
