I. Introduction
CNC stands for Computerized Numerical Control and can be described as the process in which the equipment used for production is automatically controlled by pre-programmed software or code and not directly controlled by an operator. A person can write the programs or they can be developed by use of graphical CAD(computer-aided design) or CAM(computer-aided manufacturing) software. This process is widely used since CNC machines have the ability to work on any kind of material ranging from plastics to metals, wood, and composites among others. There are a variety of machinery that are run by CNC machining and they include: turning mills, lathes as well and grinders. With the continuous innovations in technology, CNC machining has proven to be very crucial and efficient in the manufacturing processes of various industries. This process helps an industry or company to boost its productivity especially when producing similar products and ensure that the products are of high quality. To learn more details about CNC machining, you can get access to all the necessary information on the TDL-CNC machining homepage which specializes in a variety of production processes.
