5 Things You Should Know About CNC Machining

CNC machining is one of the most common, faster, and cost-effective ways of manufacturing prototype and production parts. With CNC machining, you can convert raw materials to finished products faster, with accuracy, and in lesser cost. CNC machines are faster, easier, and safer to operate for both hobbyist and engineers. Due to safety, accuracy, and fast turn-around time, CNC machining services are preferred throughout manufacturing sectors.

What is CNC Machining?

CNC machining is the most common jargon used in manufacturing industries as the shorter version for Computer Numerical Control. In the industry parlance, it refers to the machining process that involves controlling a variety of machine tools through a computer for cutting, grinding, and creating machine parts from work pieces that could be in metals, plastics, wood, etc. Machines tools that can be controlled through computer software are grinders, lathes, mill, and routers. Manufacturing industries leverage CNC machining for cutting three-dimensional parts from one single piece at one go. This has directly influenced CNC machining prototype service throughout the world.

CAD Drawing in 2D or 3D

The first step in CNC machining is the creation of CAD drawing either in 2D or 3D in AutoCAD. The model is then converted into G-Code for the CNC Machine. The Code is the language for the CNC machine to follow instructions. This G-Code and tool data are loaded onto the CNC machine, and a trial is run. The trial is called “cutting air” to confirm tool position relative to the workpiece, its speed, and accuracy.

Precision & repetition

CNC machining provides precision, and accuracy that is impossible with manual machining. You can make three-dimensional part in one single piece. Since the machining processing is programmed, it offers greater control on repeating the same process continuously. Even after making of the parts, you can use the CNC program in the future to create the same part.

Use of CNC machining

CNC machining is used for manufacturing any complex parts at faster and cost-effective methods. Whether you are opting for milling, grinding, or milling, you can achieve precision in manufacturing parts. Once the CNC program is created, you can use CNC machining for creating multiple same parts, complex machined parts with fine details, and with fast turn-around time. In short, manufacturing parts for any use is possible with CNC.

CNC machines types

Advancement in technology and enhancement in mechanism has helped CNC manufacturing companies to create different types of CNC machines. Today, there are 5-Axis and 6-Axis CNC machines in the market. With these advanced and latest CNC machines, manufacturing parts in any shape and size is possible. The most common are: CNC Mills, Lathes, Plasma Cutter, Electric Discharge Machines, and Water Jet Cutters. Besides metals and plastic, there are CNC machines for woodwork as well such as CNC Routers.
