CNC turning is a highly efficient and accurate machining process used in manufacturing to create cylindrical parts. Unlike traditional turning methods, CNC (Computer Numerical Control) turning utilizes computer-controlled machinery to perform precise cuts and produce complex geometries. By automating the turning process, CNC machines can deliver consistent results, even for complex shapes and tight tolerances, making them essential in industries like automotive, aerospace, medical, and electronics. This article explores the fundamentals of CNC turning, its benefits, applications, and the factors to consider when using this technology. What is CNC Turning? CNC turning is a machining process where a workpiece, usually a cylindrical bar of material, is rotated while a cutting tool shapes it into the desired form. The process uses a lathe with a CNC controller to automate tool movements, ensuring precision and consistency across multiple parts. The cutting tool remains stationary, while th...
