CNC Machining
Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) Machining is a process which takes programmed tool paths via user input in order to machine a part. Programming the tool paths is done in a Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) software, which allows the programmer to choose the tools used for machining and visually simulate the machining if the part. The program is transferred
Precision and finish is generally higher with CNC parts as everything is controlled by a computer.
2 Axis
2 Axis machining generally the X and Y axis
2.5 axis machining.
3 Axis
Multi-axis
Multi-axis CNC Machining is any CNC machining performed on a machine with greater than 3 axis (degrees of freedom) control. Different variations
