The
CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control, is a process of machining substances
that involves computer aided technology
to control tools. Tools that can be controlled in this manner include grinders,
lathes, mills and routers. In this technology the computer's unique software
and control console sets the system apart for use in CNC machining.
In
CNC Machining the machine tools function through numerical control in which a
computer program is customized for an object to be machined. The machines are
programmed with a CNC machining language called G-code. This controls all
features like location, feed rate, coordination, and speeds. This technology is
utilized in manufacturing both metal and plastic parts for Custom Machining Services.
The
main benefits of using CNC Machining is that, this process is more precise than
manual machining methods. As it delivers precision machining, this process can produce
complex shapes that would be almost impossible to achieve with manual machining
Below are major benefits of CNC Machining Process:
1) Cost savings: It allows the operator to take full advantage of raw materials. More accuracy is delivered and less waste is produced. Therefore, it minimizes the loss and increases profit over costs.
2) Speed: This technology has fastened the machining process. It can quickly produce parts that would normally take multiple steps to manufacture by manual process.
3) Improved Efficiency: CNC machines are the most efficient mean to deliver quality and Precision machining services. The minute an error can be detected in the product therefore leads to optimum raw material usage.
4) Safety: As the entire process is automated, There is complete safety of operators and workers, allowing a safer work environment.
This
technology is also utilized for the jobs that need a high level of precision. It
is because of these qualities that CNC Machining is used for the production of
many complex three-dimensional shapes.
