What Is CNC Machine

What is CNC Machine



The meaning of CNC is Computer Numerical Control. A CNC machine uses computers to control machine tools.

Computer Numerical Control  Machining is the process through which computers control machine-based processes in manufacturing. The kinds of machines controlled include lathes, mills, routers and grinders – all used for manufacturing of metal and plastic products.

Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) programs are combined to control features like feed rate, coordination, location and speed. In this way, the computer can control the cutting and shaping of the materials.

This process is suitable for a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, wood, glass, foam, and composites, and finds application in a variety of industries, such as large CNC machining and CNC machining aerospace parts.

A program is crafted and loaded into the machine, which is professionally calibrated and then used to create the intended object.

In CNC machine  the program is stored in the memory of the computer. The programmer can  easily write the codes, and edit the programs as per the requirements.

CNC is considered to provide more precision, complexity and repeatability than is possible with manual machining. Other benefits include greater accuracy, speed and flexibility, as well as capabilities such as contour machining, which allows milling of contoured shapes, including those produced in 3D designs.
