CNC turning processing is a general term for part processing performed on CNC machine tools. Computer-controlled machine tools are collectively referred to as CNC lathes in the machining industry. Whether it is a computer specifically designed to control CNC machine tools or a general-purpose computer, both are called CNC systems. CNC turning processing is widely used in the precision parts machining industry. Below is an introduction to the process characteristics of CNC turning for precision parts machining:
The CNC system program is developed by professional engineers based on the material of the part, process requirements, and machine tool characteristics. The CNC system program sends run or interrupt commands to the machine tool to control its operation. After the precision part machining work is completed, the machine tool automatically stops running under the instructions of the program.
The inherent characteristics of CNC machine tools determine that their primary role is to process products with a certain level of complexity. Such products generally feature relatively complex surfaces, and CNC machining primarily addresses challenges that conventional machining methods cannot resolve. The most significant feature of CNC machining in precision parts applications is its ability to control machine tools via perforated tape for automated processing.
